Think everyone is caught up in the “grading game” and most of the Mahomes are probably gonna be trimmed due to the condition of Contenders cards straight from packs/cases

they do seem.less desirable but I will admit the line is a pretty card in hand. Not a fan of the pink myself, but it's a tough grade parallel I think. Surprised that the lime isn't more popular given the low population. 104 gems and just 154 in holders. (Pink 314/506 implies a tough gem rate though, similar numbers to the red/yellow actually).

Question for everyone from a novice, trying to determine if I messed up. I recently listed one of the base optics for auction on eBay. I started my template from a recently finished listing that had “silver” in the title. I made sure not to add the words “holo” or “prizm” to my listing as I’m aware of those distinctions. In addition, the pictures in my listing clearly show it is not the prizm version. An eBayer sent me a message this morning warning me I’ve described the item incorrectly. So have I incorrectly described the item? I want do my best to avoid an “item not as described” issue, and the base optic cards have a silver sheen to them (I can’t tell them apart from the holo except for the “prizm” on the back). I appreciate any advice!

Holo = Silver when it comes to optic. So yes having silver in your title can be misleading.

The yellows are really nice too! They almost look more like a gold than anything. Here’s mine. It’s the lowest #ed Mahomes card I own

I know I’ve said it before, but the Phoenix line seems to be moving up the ranks in terms of desirability. The base cards, parallels, and inserts (e.g., Rookie Rising, QB Vision) have all the traits you want (e.g., shiny, rainbow refractors, Rookie tag, traditional/consistent colors for parallels). Only thing I’m not a fan of are the sticker autos

I'm too poor to buy this Mahomes Phoenix yellow and had to settle for this bozo....it could be considered blasphemy in the Mahomes thread....but hey, onepocketj will get a kick out of it so it's worth it.

Very nice.
I actually don't have that one. Have all the base from the Green down and RR have a dozen or so numbered but not that one.

As a fellow Watson collector, I applaud you on your pick up. That is a pretty healthy price tag on the yellow Mahomes on the bay. I’ve only picked up two of the Mahomes rookie risings thus far

Inserts are definitely picking up steam in all sports. Glad to see them making a comeback.

I was late to the party on rookie inserts. Even Jay beat me to them. I'm sure someone will pick this up soon which is fair because no one should own two of these anyways.

Stay safe in Australia Jay. Sounds like you're getting Covid worse than we are in Texas...

I just purchased a Patrick Mahomes RC but it doesn’t come up in completed sales on EBay or on 130point. Why would that happen?

130point rarely works for me and flipper tools is now shut down (“due to abuse”). Running out of ways to find BO values on phone. I know there is still the “taxex” trick on desktop, but I’m rarely on desktop when browsing for cards

The weird thing is that it doesn’t show up when I do completed items on the eBay site. Why would that be? It was a best offer that was accepted

Pretty dumb that the Elite true rookie doesn't sell much more than the Elite Series despite being a lot rarer.

Hard to know for sure, but I’ve had that happen a couple times. Sometimes the seller doesn’t take the listing down some reason. In at least two instances for me, the seller shipped the wrong card to me. Now, Whenever that happens, I proactively reach out and make sure they are shipping the correct card to avoid any mixup and tell them the listing is still active

100% agree. Donruss elite feels like an underappreciated set in my opinion
