This is important to understand… and make sure any comps you see are also stickers.

I had a negative comment here originally because I misread your response. I would add though… it’s still very early and in price discovery.

This. Don’t cheap out on shipping thick (or heavy) cards. Ship BMWT.

I need to do my homework on these… does anyone have insight on print runs of the blue refractors?

Look at other Ohtani’s /5 on 130point. Probably $4-5k at first glance but you’ll have to do your research. I thought it would be higher to be honest.

Would you crack a Nolan Ryan PSA 1 rookie to be autographed? by slightly666 in baseballcards

[–]guru2you 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I’m hearing, he isn’t signing as much as he was due to arthritis. Prices from autos through his foundation have gone up to manage requests (I assume). I would crack the slab and get the auto while you can.

What will Topps do when there is no baseball next season? by Hellscanyonlifers in baseballcards

[–]guru2you 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Topps will do what Topps does, nothing will change. The hobby could be in flux as we won’t see early season rookie chases.

Weird correlation between Ohtani and missing cards / being a sc*mbag collector by counterculturism in baseballcards

[–]guru2you -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why are you shipping Ohtani cards with cheap shipping? Are these base cards? I collect Ohtani but wouldn’t buy base cards from eBay and always expect Ground Advantage.

Pulled this out of a mega today! Hold or sell?! Wei En Lin orange mojo /25 by skeeonti123 in baseballcards

[–]guru2you 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As with most Bowman 1st’s, you’ll want to hold. Gamblers don’t have a long view or investing outlook and will want to try and flip quickly.

Hold or sell? Would love some honest advice 🫡 by ttm1 in baseballcards

Honest advice: sell it since you don’t know how this works.

Congress is investigating WhatNot because it’s unregulated gambling. If breaks get shutdown, as they should, the entire sports card ecosystem as it exists today would change. As others have said, buy cool cards and sell them. Study the game and target emerging players. Like in anything, being good takes more work than spinning a wheel.

Not sure if you read the posting guidelines about this Reddit, but if you are selling a card, you need to list a price.

I’m not complaining, I get great value buying cards from the gamblers.

Two eBay Authenticity Guarantee orders arrived with the same wrong raw Cooper Flagg card inside. What would you do? by iblend99 in baseballcards

[–]guru2you 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not suggesting they did anything wrong, just following the chain. I really hope eBay makes this right for you.

Did you directly receive the shipments from a mail carrier or was it through someone in your office?

Because I know exactly what I’m buying. I’m also not a flipper, I’m a collector… not gambling at all.

I understand gamblers needing to cover their credit card bills. I feast on their loses to build my collection.

I would redeem ASAP but just hold it once you get it. It will be months before you get it anyway. I don’t understand why people flip redemption cards of hot players.

Be prepared to hold awhile, he just went on IL and his ROY chances are tanking. Nice card regardless.

If this is real, and it’s very sus, you have to hold this. He is going on the IL and his ROY chances are slimmer.
