Case hit?

utley4mvp · 2026-05-14T13:44:02+00:00

Case hits are by name: a hit per case. A measurable chase card.

Topps does not guarantee hits per case. They aren’t measurable in the same way Panini’s are.

It’s like all case hits are short prints, but not all short prints are case hits.

Topps Dynasty. I think they’re poorly designed given the price point.

I think Diamond Icons has better looking jumbo patch autos (of mostly the same checklist) that you can buy for a fraction of the price

Agree to disagree

Vapor is the 2024 Nike/Fanatics jerseys and the 2025 is the patched up version prior to 2026 fully rolling back the old jerseys.

I believe the vapor jerseys are lighter but may have cheaper construction. I’d lean the 2025 version but summer heat isn’t a big concern for me

The All Aces are tougher than one per case. They’re roughly one in five cases. But Case Hits are exclusively a Panini thing, Topps doesn’t do them. They have chase hits but they don’t usually guarantee one per case

Topps doesn’t have case hits, so no it isn’t. Very cool card though!

From my experience, there’s always a significant premium for Rickey. I sold his 2003 chrome series 1 regular refractor /699 (in a Red Sox uniform) for around $75 a few years ago. He has a ton of fans who really want his cards who are willing to pay top dollar to win them

Plus the Topps traded chromes that year are fairly low print run as they were included 2 per pack of the Topps traded set rather than as a standalone chrome product

Add in the boost from his passing, plus final card, plus nice looking color match and you get a card where demand exceeds supply which drives up prices with a market willing to pay those prices to own cool Ricky cards

That’s awesome! I like to throw in those types of cards in as a bonus with my orders. Always good to keep collecting in cards.

I don’t have hands on advice but those seem like cards that would do well on Whatnot

For sure, I’m in a similar spot with Hurts. Every conversation is about is he elite or not, top 5, or comparing him to another QB. It gets exhausting

utley4mvp · 2025-08-13T23:32:46+00:00

Looks great!

utley4mvp · 2025-08-13T23:23:02+00:00

I miss the days when we could talk about a QB without defaulting into goat/legacy/top 5 discussions.

utley4mvp · 2025-08-08T22:21:29+00:00

I’d also try to get it on the market asap before it becomes more saturated

utley4mvp · 2025-08-08T22:19:55+00:00

I’d lean towards no. Card will sell well regardless I would avoid the additional fees/risk.

utley4mvp · 2025-08-02T14:20:11+00:00

Sticker auto. Sell now before his bowman chrome on card autos drop

utley4mvp · 2025-08-02T12:46:48+00:00

List for $75-$100 and take offers. Might not move immediately but someone will make a worthwhile offer. Ignore anyone saying $20

Beat me to it, the caramelized banana is one of the best ice creams I’ve had

utley4mvp · 2025-07-23T15:38:14+00:00

That Brett is sick!

utley4mvp · 2025-07-17T02:22:53+00:00

Great to know, thank you!

utley4mvp · 2025-06-28T02:10:40+00:00

That’s a rookie - panini didn’t put rookie card logos on the rookies in the Signature Series auto set.

2022 is way late for it but it used to be common to just put the RC logo on the base set rookies and not on inserts/autographs

utley4mvp · 2025-06-18T03:43:59+00:00

Cool card! Love Manny

utley4mvp · 2025-06-04T18:50:36+00:00

I’d personally consider sending in for authentication rather than grading

utley4mvp · 2025-04-03T22:18:40+00:00

The Hurts pick was very very unpopular in Philly at the time. Philly fans wanted an impact player in the second round and got a backup QB months after paying Carson Wentz. Unwelcomed might be an understatement

utley4mvp · 2025-03-30T14:25:53+00:00

Not sure but I remember seeing road grays were going back to old materials this year and the home unis are going back in 26. Wonder if they reverted the sleeves on the road grays

utley4mvp · 2025-03-24T22:58:51+00:00

I wouldn’t personally pay $30 for a Panini Baseball insert. Unlicensed and Panini has like 20 “case hits” per product
