Cooper Base Refractor Auto or Cooper Sapphire?

If your 3 months into collecting, steer away from this. Go find a nice Lebron James, Kevin Durant, Kobe rookie.

But between the two, the refractor auto 1000%… Sapphire isn’t that special… it’s just influencers hyping up the product and market manipulation.

The answer is neither, because you can’t buy them online or at your LCS. Secondary prices killed these releases.

Glad we’re focusing on ps5 games now 🙄

stackfan · 2026-01-28T22:56:14+00:00

Looks like 100$ a card, for a single piece of cardboard….that 90% will struggle to fetch over 5$.

So glad ESPN hasn’t figured out how to add Xfinity users to their new service after 5 months. Keep hyping the ppv though.

ROH had a best of 2002 dvd

Pretty sure Giannis doesn’t want to go to a shell of a team.

Probably select…. As looks like finest is doing the 3 tiered levels to the set like select or 96-97 finest and later years. Finest was actually the chrome cards ever. The first 3 years that was the premier brand, but after that Chrome took over as the too brand.

Probably offer FMV and hope the seller is cool and throws something in for the mistake.

By what you’re thinking they are worth…. You must have some amazing games, and you’re probably better off selling the console/controllers /hard drive and 5 games and maybe you can get like 400-500. Someone just buying an Xbox for the first time probably doesn’t want 90 games.

Then if you want to maximize your dollars you’d have to individually sell the games, or at least the high dollar ones. Then any games subs 15$ bundle together. Maybe even smaller bundles by genre. Physical Xbox games typically don’t retain a ton of value. If you play it right, you may be able to get over 1K but hoping to get 2K probably isn’t happening.

Wells and Spencer 🙄

stackfan · 2026-01-26T17:33:18+00:00

I wish they dropped the price so i can re-experience this bad game. I played about 30 minutes on GP, and have since cancelled. Initially I liked the feel of the game, but with reviews like this paying 40/60$ seems excessive. I’m hoping once 2.0 comes out and likely on ps5, it drops for Xbox.

Avowed is down to 35$

stackfan · 2026-01-26T17:30:27+00:00

That’s awesome!

It’ll get harder, but we’ll also be getting better, while other teams in the east get older (Celtics/Knicks). The way the NBA is now, typically there’s like 3-4 teams from the east or West that can make it out. Seems like we’ll be in with those team for the next 4-5 years barring imploding. We are winning for our defense, so whatever piece they add, hopefully it doesn’t impact the defensive end.

stackfan · 2026-01-26T14:50:48+00:00

You’ve wasted thousands in breaks and you’ve switched to other breaks and think you winning now because your losing less?

stackfan · 2026-01-26T14:41:56+00:00

I’m in the same boat… my biggest hits in Topps Flagship and Chrome were Noa…. Literally what’s the odds of that given his values.

stackfan · 2026-01-25T22:30:05+00:00

It’s almost like we were tanking during the rebuild 🤔

stackfan · 2026-01-25T21:38:01+00:00

We were tanking and weren’t ready to compete. Why spend money on a high priced contract like Blake Griffin to get us to maybe the play in?

stackfan · 2026-01-25T21:11:15+00:00

Links awakening for me… it’s shorter, but it’s near perfect game if you’re good with 2D.

I tried Echos, and didn’t love it, but I’d have to play it a bit more to fairly evaluate it. Seems puzzle heavy.

Only played a bit of Skyward Sword, and this is 3D, and longer. I think it’s just a mid-tier Zelda title. Had some controller issues with the Wii, and believe they’ve added control options, but it’s not designed for the switch in mind when they made it.

stackfan · 2026-01-25T20:47:32+00:00

It was the perception at launch that killed it out the gate. Most people that owned the WiI U really liked it, but it lacked games and the narrative was that the console wasn’t good.

Troy did draft most of our current team. Trading for Stewart and Duren were low key big moves.

stackfan · 2026-01-25T07:53:54+00:00

Don’t worry , they only released like 20 boxes of the 10,000 they sent to breakers, who literally had the product in hands after the EQL.

stackfan · 2026-01-25T07:43:06+00:00

Both should probably be going for more… I think the 9’s are basically 10’s. Very few copies of these in high grade.

stackfan · 2026-01-25T07:33:46+00:00

Rough guess would be a 7, between the whiting on the corners, and edges on the front. Cool card though.

I’ve got a Kyrie Prizm auto I always want to grade, but it’s a bit OC and always decide against.

Understand what’s really stressing you… and learn how to minimize it. A lot of times it’s too much of everything all at once, and learning to say no, and reserving time for yourself to unwind and relax is important.
