It's going to be a long night tomorrow that's for sure. Pray for Florida.

Stay safe! We’re here for you!

Thanks!
Wish one of the golds turned to be a 10.

Those Finest Flashbacks are amazing. I'm still looking for a 2020 reg refractor.

Man, I have always loved Teoscar Hernandez. What a baller.

How much do Ohtani prices fall if Dodgers get bounced tomorrow ?

Obvious snarky answer will be it doesn't matter because he's another another level yadda yadda but in reality it should. His whole excuse to this point was he was a superstar on an otherwise bad team but now he's a superstar on a whole team of superstars. Expectations and failure to meet them should have consequences.

i hope to see 75% to 90% off his low numbered cards

Why wouldn't they fall to that level??? Sell Ohtani, buy $55 packs of Logofractor!

I would expect prices to drop a little but not much. Mainly on the lower end stuff that is much more liquid.

I think the failure you're talking about is the Dodgers pitching staff. Not sure what Ohtani has to do with that.

Some 2024 #500 acquired plus a few other fun ones

Most likely because outside of Game 1, he has done nothing in this series.

Bad taste will be there for a brief period of time on the good stuff, and be longer lasting on all the Topps junk tied to this season. 50/50, BUT Dodgers get their ass whooped in the NLDS yet again. Separate achievements, but this will very much weigh down on how people remember this season.

[Hellcat]

Trolls in here trolling over a 3 game sample size with a 3 run homerun that won game 1 for them! Lmfao! Ohtani IS the team! We won't see much of a drop if they lose this series based on his historic season and the fact he will be the ace for the Dodgers next year! He is the GOAT men invest as much as your budget allows for!

What makes you an expert on Ohtani cards and how the market will behave? In the past you said you sold all your Ohtani cards in 2021? Did you have the foresight to buy a bunch of Ohtani RC cards during the beginning and middle of the year like I was telling everyone to do?

If the Dodger are eliminated I expect his cards to dip...but only because he is not playing and its the off season. I expect his cards to hit all time highs in spring training when people see him pitching again and expect another MVP season.

I have given up trying to predict Ohtani price trends. I'll just continue to pick up cool cards of him that I would like to add to my collection.

Yes, I sold hundreds of 2018 junk base and insert Ohtani cards I pulled myself with zero cost basis throughout 2021. They were taking up space and it was time for them to go. I haven’t bought cards with the intention of making money in two years now. There are no cards that have a risk/reward ratio to make it worth my money.
