That’s impressive. We really do need to find a way to get better photos posted by the time we’re ready for the big family photo.

[hermanotarjeta]

Inexplicably, a raw Jasson Dominguez sold for $765.

The previous high was about $400.

Must be set builders.

That's fair and i'm surprised you spotted one at a show.

The last one sold for $560, but most go for about $350-$500 when you can find them.

[hermanotarjeta]

$468 a new high for Yamamoto.

How close are you to finishing the set?

On the cusp.

Unfortunately, there are currently zero live auctions happening and what’s left are sellers holding hostages by asking four-figures for three-figure cards.

Hey, thought I'd out myself as a set collector too. I've been lurking on this board for a few months while I started collecting again with my son. I'd been out of collecting since my childhood and when we started again I looked at targeting short print run insert sets of 25 cards or so, that way we could have multiple sets of cards in a single binder. We finished the Bowman Chrome Garbage Pail Kids set, and just finished this years All Aces. I like this set more than those because it was numbered, I thought that'd be more of a challenge. It ended up being very challenging!

I saw hermanotarjeta's post when it was posted, but didn't actually decide to try and tackle this set for a month. If I had jumped on it right away, I might have made it further along. You even posted some of my purchases as I was over paying at the time. Prices recently have really jumped up though and I don't think I'm willing to chase them to finish the set. The Jasson Dominguez selling for over $700 really shocked me. I considered offering $1500 for one of the Skenes but the guy seems firm, and I'm not even sure I'd want to pay $1500 for it. So, I'm pausing, and I'm going to look for a different set to start pursuing in the mean time. We are currently at 13 cards.

Good luck to you finishing your set, hermanotarjeta.

Patience my friend and thanks for the kind words!

Even though the set is only 25 cards, I always pictured it as a potentially multi-year project. It’s a lot more challenging than it appears. Sealed cases for sale are essentially non-existent and thus breaks have all but disappeared. Some singles haven’t surfaced for months, which is unheard of for a product that was released less than 5 months ago - insane!

From my perspective, over time, some of those rookie logo cards will drop quite a bit as the players’ potential disappear, so it’s probably wiser to demonstrate patience with those rookie logo cards, including Skenes.

The Skenes sellers are in no hurry to sell, that’s for sure. The crazy Soto for $2000 bin/bo seller is never gonna move that card either.

Best of luck on your pursuit as well, the wonderful thing about this hobby is that you can always get back to completing those sets at any time, even after decades out of the hobby as they will always be there, albeit perhaps at a higher price, lol.

One thing for sure - what keeps us set collectors going is the passion for the chase - and this set just begs us to do that!

[ROKN ZJ]

Btw, the Guerrero card is my favorite along with the Soto. Those two cards I think really showcase the "gold storm" aspect; much better than cards such as the Holliday or Trout ones where they're just in their batting stance.

[hermanotarjeta]

I like the Elly and the Bryce myself, though the batting stance poses, like the Acuna, don’t bother me so much.

They are all beautiful, however, in their own right- simply a visually pleasant set!

[hermanotarjeta]

It's monthly price guide day for those interested in price movement for this set. Demand still seems to be strong as prices haven't plummeted yet.

Still a shame Bobby didn't get a card in this set.

Yes, I would imagine he would be a $500-$600 card had he been included.

[hermanotarjeta]

Despite his slow start, Jrod sold by best offer for $500 within 24 hours.

[hermanotarjeta]

Another record high - Ohtani sold for $2550, for a PSA 8!

[hermanotarjeta]

Langford on fire and prices reflecting that - previous high for a PSA 9 was $575, one just sold on a best offer for $850.

[hermanotarjeta]

Starting to see some movement with Skenes. Two PSA 9 sales this weekend at $1500 and $1600, which is 50% up from the off season.

Also the superfractor has been listed for auction again, will be interested to see where that lands as it initially sold for $8500 shortly after product release.

The PSA 8 from Japan just sold for higher than the previous high - for $2750!

If the buyer was American, there’s an additional tariff on top of that!

Will likely cost over $3k for the next one - hope those who are going for a set already landed one of these.
