Consistently inconsistent

First one I pulled and graded shortly after release. Second one I bought recently, already graded. Overall, I'm glad they went to 'SP' as the designation. I certainly don't remember every SP vs SSP variation for every player.

I cannot believe how many PSA 10s there are of Yordan's S1 base RC. Just an unbelievable amount. Almost 4300 and counting!

I own like 5, lol.

I’m not going big on Yordan, but I am looking for deals on his mid-range cards. Like this one for $12. (!!!)

$12!?! Wow! That’s a steal!

On top of that, I think the blue parallels are really sharp looking cards—especially for Yordan. Great pickup.

Yeah, I felt kinda badly hitting the BIN button. And I would not have complained had the seller cancelled sale due to a listing error. But that didn’t happen, so...

I now have a complete-set blue of Yordan and Bichette, and today I also received an orange LouRob. They are really sharp-looking cards. I’ve grown to like the 2020 parallels, in general (I didn’t initially like that the color was just on the vertical bar), but these two variations really stand out to me.

And this shade of blue works really well on the Yordan card.

I love that the photo variation is a different angle of essentially the same moment as the regular photo. Also, the Astros have cheerleaders?

Heritage Throwback up on eBay. Really high BIN. I offered $750 and got auto declined.

Speaking of stadium, I like the stadium chrome rookie.
Is it from this moon shot, right before?

Edit looks like a different game but similar pic/angle

Watch "Yordan Alvarez Monster Home Run: 9/9/2019" on YouTube

No. That highlight is against the A’s. The SC Chrome shot is against the Nationals.

He hit a homer against the Nationals in the ‘19 World Series; that was an opposite-field shot, but in the card it looks like he’s out in front enough to be driving it right. The angle could be deceiving, though.

Picked up a UK Edition Big Ben parallel of Yordan (/99) for $35 plus taxes/shipping. Pretty excited for that one.

I planned on buying more Yordan during this offseason but ultimately just nabbed that one and a PSA 9 gold from flagship.

I'm particular about his 2020 Finest Flashbacks Refractor. I don't have his Super or Red but got a few of the rest.

When i saw one in completed listings and glanced over the pics i knew i had to snag one

The front is a chrome layer with a really lovely rainbow refractor finish, while the back is an ultra classy thick card stock and also features top notch design, absolutely compliments the front
