Trueblue with a very nice quad set. Which one is ur favorite? I assuming mini diamond.

Make sense, I can see the print run actually increase for next installation- similar to what happen after the 2018 sapphire release.

I actually like the base/99 most. There's something alluring about the clean gold batting design.

I can’t believe the base print run is 99. That is what appeal me the most

I mean, it's understandable. Sho cards are swimming against the stream upward on price despite extremely cautious spending from the target customer demographic of millennials and Gen Xs. If you had the means to procure the card in the first place, why not wait for the right economic fundamentals to align? Either that or a ridiculous offer - $2M?

This is what I love about many high-end Sho collectors. They see the big picture and are willing to hold. Meanwhile, Acuna stubs his toe or J-Rod goes 2 for 30 and cards plummet 10%.

The BB pushes his OPS to 1.011

KhalDrogo · 06-17-2023, 06:39 PM

Pray that he gets traded so we can speed up his departure.

BoSoxFan1999 · 06-17-2023, 07:34 PM

This auction originally sold for a little over $1k but the buyer flaked out so it got relisted. Now the current auction is up to $1.4k with an hour left. I think the seller is glad the original sale fell through.

It disappoints me that his orange auto 2018 BCs aren’t comfortably in the 6 figs

Am I correct in stating that only 2018 Series 2 Silver Packs contain Shohei cards? Doesn’t seem to be on the checklist for 2018 S1 or Update. Thanks!
