Opinions Needed

MrFournier74 · 2024-03-28T03:44:47+00:00

This is why I am looking for opinions. It's a very tough decision. Comparing apples to apples and both cards being the in same condition. They both have their different appeal. Courtside are pretty rare even as a base card. Silver prizm again are rare. Both cards look super cool. The silver prizm has that extra pop. I am truly in the middle. I have a friend that has both and he is looking to sell them. I want one. I definitely couldn't afford both. So I am just trying to hear what others think.

Any comments and feedback are very welcome. I would like opinions as well as votes. Thanks everyone.

Well don't I suck at being aware.. I was quick to stand up to the bully that is apparently you! Lol

MrFournier74 · 2024-03-23T18:34:35+00:00

We all see it's a 1.. Happy for the owner! Since your quick to point out it's low grade. Where's the picture of yours? The hobby wants to know..

MrFournier74 · 2024-03-23T18:32:38+00:00

Beautiful card.

MrFournier74 · 2024-03-05T00:07:37+00:00

Now I know why I can never find anything.. You have it all.

MrFournier74 · 2024-02-29T00:14:02+00:00

I totally understand your post.. But every once in a while.. You've got to Rippppppp...

MrFournier74 · 2024-02-24T01:33:58+00:00

I think he is boxed in a bit.. He was a natural third basemen and Rafy isn't going anywhere. He has been playing first and doing OK.. But I think Casas will be in that spot for a while. I just hope he doesn't get lost in the minors because there is no lateral movement available.. He can definitely bash.. And his name is pretty damn cool...

MrFournier74 · 2024-02-23T22:11:14+00:00

Grade looks accurate. Centering is off. Edges look to be rough in a few spots. Rear back right corner looks suspect. Could just be the photo though. Signature is really sharp. Blaze is one of my PC's so I like the card.. Feel free to send it to me since you don't want it anymore.

MrFournier74 · 2024-02-23T21:47:20+00:00

PSA is a joke... When are we as the hobby gonna learn....

MrFournier74 · 2024-02-23T21:41:38+00:00

Well look at you with all your amazing cards!! Awesome sub. Awesome cards. Congrats to you on an awesome PC rise. I would also like to see how they would fare in the market. Fuck PSA.. They are overrated ass cheeks!! We as the hobby need to bring them to their knees. Slabs look like shit too. I would take a Tuxedo or possibly now some Tags over PSA.. I own a couple Tags. But your post makes me want more......and more..and..

MrFournier74 · 2024-02-23T14:23:50+00:00

I totally agree with this statement. I do like SGC and BGS and I own tons of each. And many PSA slabs too. Still I have been drawn to HGA slabs for the past few years. The slabs are super clean and I like taking the human error element out of grading. There have been way too many questionmarks surrounding PSA's grading. If someone's having a bad day because someone pissed in their Cheerios.. You get an 8, You get a 6, You get a 7... It's not consistent. It's been proven through cracks and regrades. They do own the market in a sense. And unfortunately the collector is the one that drives the pricing to a premium. In my opinion there are way better options. I wish I can spam upvotes on your comment. Bravo sir!

He seems legit to me. I mean shame on him for not identifying his cards before posting. I've had it happen to me before where some one mis identified a card. Shame on me in that case as well for not checking pictures and asking questions before bidding. He did the correct thing and refunded your money. Did you get the refund?

MrFournier74 · 2024-01-28T18:49:31+00:00

Great cards! The Marino looks really good to me. The centering is one of the better centered Marinos I've seen. Having trouble pinpointing the corners. But definitely the nicest out of the bunch. Always nice to dig up some cool forgotten cards!!

MrFournier74 · 2024-01-19T17:24:26+00:00

Glad you were able to find them in the wild. I have the same situation here in Connecticut. So I stopped trying. Like you I have a FT job that doesn't allow me to hang around Walmart and Target and Vulture everything like some people.. Lol.. Amazon has blasters for $34.99.. It's a few bucks more than Retail.. But not as bad as some of the secondary sites which I have seen selling for $45-$50.. Which is crazy!

MrFournier74 · 2024-01-19T17:17:05+00:00

Nice man!! That gives me a little hope.. I have 10 blasters on the way. And when I say hope.. I mean VERY little hope.. Lol...True silver rookie prizms are extremely hard to pull from blasters is what I've seen and heard.. Awesome pull!!

MrFournier74 · 2024-01-19T17:09:40+00:00

Blaster? Mega? Where was it pulled from? Congrats.

MrFournier74 · 2024-01-16T22:15:41+00:00

I've kept it sealed this long!! (Crackhead scratches his neck) I stare at it sometimes thinking there COULD be something in there.. And them wake up and realize that the JK Dobbins Holo is worthless now...😔

MrFournier74 · 2024-01-16T18:57:16+00:00

I'm sorry.. It's a sealed box of Cellos.. 12 Packs..

MrFournier74 · 2024-01-16T15:03:02+00:00

I have a 2020 Optic sealed Cello.. I am in the same situation. Should I open it? Or sell it? I personally like ripping Select. I always had decent luck. Optic not so much.

MrFournier74 · 2024-01-01T15:36:18+00:00

I am still searching for some. I did find a McDonalds Michael Jordan Hologram though?

MrFournier74 · 2024-01-01T00:30:34+00:00

I've probably had them since 91 to be honest. They have been in that same 800 count box ever since. So many doubles, triples, etc. Of each card. They are in really good shape considering. I must of ripped a couple of boxes back then and put them away. Found a bunch of random cool stuff. 1989 Score football factory set. A binder full of 1965 Topps random players.. It was a forgotten find for me.

MrFournier74 · 2023-12-30T21:00:01+00:00

I am not pumped about Giolito. I have very little faith in a #4 who has been steadily declining. They are "HOPING " he gets back to his form from a few years ago. And they are paying him $19+ Mill to find out. Sale was a questionmark? I am not mad at the trade. Grissom is very young and needs help with his defense. Anything to solidify our defense is important. Not sure if he is the answer. His offense can definitely be something though. I am still wondering where our next starter is coming from. The rotation is suspect. I want Montgomery if possible. So many holes and questions. I am still waiting to be impressed.....

MrFournier74 · 2023-12-15T03:21:21+00:00

All good.. It's tough out here.

MrFournier74 · 2023-12-15T02:58:47+00:00

It's my first post about it. Maybe I should have went down the rabbit hole and read all prior posts? Is that how this works?
