Default 10k to spend

All sports. Vintage or new. You can buy anything you want for investment purposes, what would you buy?

I'll start off with a serious answer. 10k worth of 2018 Ohtani BC Autos. In second place, 10k worth of Soto BC Autos. But absolutely wait 3 months to buy until the depths of the offseason

Try cornering the 1990 Fleer Bill Pecota market.

Literally only for Ohtani (which is still close) and the chance you might get one Acuna.

Update easily has more value.

Yeah you're right, forgot about Soto.

Forgot about Soto? Seriously? Update is by far the best product of 2018 and its not even close!

You probably should go on the Sports Card Investor site for these types of inquiries.

Very sound advice - if you can resist ripping it.

Maybe. That's a genuine debate worth having. As of right now I would lean to Update purely because of the US300 with its parallels but Series 2 does have Ohtani's true RC and the Bat Down. ( Gleyber can be scratched from both products for the purposes of value.)


The more I think about it the more I like your pick. You get a Bat Down, a dozen Ohtani base rc's and the chance at what will be a coveted true rc parallel.

Series 2 if Soto flops( which he won't). Update if you like Soto as well. Or as someone on here often says: BOTH

TBP, you're pretty high on Sony Michel, dude. I can hook you up with some rarities for a fraction of the price of those other guys you listed...

Nothing that is so obvious that it would be suggested in this thread

Agreed. Something that isn't being weighed into this discussion yet is the SP/SSP variations of Acuna, Soto, Ohtani and virtually every other decent-good rookie in update. Was going through a monster box of 2018 rookies that didn't warrant holding out separately last time I checked and stumbled upon a Lourdes Gurriel Jr. SSP and SP and a Tyler O'Neill SP. But Acuna SSP white-jersey, Soto SSP gatorade and Ohtani SSP batting are at least possible with a nice hobby case of '18 Update.

Trout (imo) is one of the scarier buys at today’s prices. Age, can’t stay on the field, team sucks, Ohtani taking the media love, & super high prices already. What can he do to elevate his prices any further? Hot super young studs getting all the love. Super scary if you ask me.
