Re: A Rolling Mailday Thread (Baseball)

Very Very Excited for this pickup. I decided to sell my Optic Ohtani Rookie Auto and Clearly Authentic Rookie Auto for, what I think, is a better Rookie Auto.

Re: 2023-24 Topps Chrome Basketball discussion

I've enjoyed your IG story, trashing the product :lol: :lol: . It's a nice refreshing dose of reality, after seeing influencer/breaker after influencer/breaker acting like this product is an all time product. It's nauseating. The set is butt ugly and looks beyond ridiculous, but you got guys like P...

This stuff has been the gift that keeps giving for me. Every time I think i've seen the worst card in the product I keep searching eBay and find something that's even more terrible. Been laughing my ass off for two days now.. :lol: Didn't know Tatum worse onesies.. https://live.staticflickr.com/6553...

mindcycle those are great, that blue/teal holofoil is N-Tense-esque / Flair Legacy-esque.
Thanks! That's exactly why I love that set, definitely reminds me of Flair legacy. I'm currently only 11 away from the platinum set, they just rarely show up anymore..

I'm a little late to the game but picked the Brown up right before they won the championship. Love the pairing of these two from one of my Favorite Panini sets.

Re: What are your favorite sets / products?

Great picks so far. I'm very partial to the Flair sets (95-98), especially the legacy parallels. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53257927309_24322d130e_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53637386472_e677f2ce12_b.jpg 96 Skybox rubies are subtle but a fun chase from a great set.

Interesting video from Dan the Card Man on repacks, potential government regulation, and how that might blow the bottom out of card values since a lot of these cards repackers are buying stuff over comps atm.
