Like for supply and demand purposes. If it’s PSA, they have a population report showing the amount of cards graded for each rating. Once graded that’s a big thing buyers pay for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legitimately asking because I don't know but on name brand alone from my childhood I always thought Topps was a big deal. Opening Day is like the cheapest set Topps puts out.

GuitarPik Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Does anyone use Trading Card Database to keep track of their collection? I started using it a few months ago and I’m up to 25k cards logged. I have so many doubles, would be cool to trade with someone to help complete sets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My problem with Topps has been too many filler cards in their sets and packs and not enough "insert" cards. If I bought a bix of Topps, I would get too many duplicates of common cards. Smaller sets like Bowman and Donruss, you have a better chance of getting the good cards plus a good haul of autographs, subsets, relics, or serial numbered stuff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 27 binders (and about 3 boxes full of cards i haven't even gotten into the binders yet.) I do keep a word document of what players I have and what binders they are in, so I can find cards quickly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iowa Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 These aren't worth anything but I fandangled a little thing with an old piece of glass in my kitchen.

mystikol87 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 I got a 2021 Topps pack, one of the big ones with 65 cards, the other day. I pulled a numbered Topps all star rookie. I didn’t think much of it. Turns out it’s selling for ~$75! It’s Alec Bohm, # out of 499. I also bought some really cool Marins cards recently. When they come in the mail, I’ll share pics here. I think y’all will enjoy 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mystikol87 Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I’m really excited about this listing I just put up: 2001 Topps Traded Pujols RC BCCG 10 If you are ever interested in one of my cards, just let me know. I’d rather deal with one of y’all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, might as well wait until his HOF induction. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erick Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Asking the more experienced here, shouldn’t Ohtani’s card be selling for more than what it was worth before the year started? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought so. I can’t quite crack why his cards aren’t going through the roof. They’re a good bit under Acuña and Soto cards right, it seems. Aaron Judge cards have fallen off, but so has his production. Ohtani is a bit of a mystery to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe people are cautious because of his injury history but the way he is hitting should change that.. Tatis and Acuna cards are skyrocketing right now..... As is Wander Franco's 2019 Bowman Chrome. (It's now $100 pre-graded)... and Julio Rodriguez (Mariners) 2019 Bowman Chrome just went to $50... It's crazy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CyggyMarlin Posted May 8, 2021 Author Share Posted May 8, 2021 On 4/13/2021 at 3:54 PM, Erick said: It’s a Topps card. 2018 RC, Ohtani Pitching In Red card, PSA 10. Got it on eBay for $175. The 2018 Topps Ohtani regular (base) card is @ $6 pre-graded... It will be worth a lot more if it's got a colored border, is a refractor or if it's a short print photo variation where the picture on the front is different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyggyMarlin Posted May 8, 2021 Author Share Posted May 8, 2021 (edited) For those new to collecting or just simply curious... Here is a good example of a photo variation....The card that is middle row, far right is the basic (base) card (2016 Topps Series 1 Stanton),,, it goes for around $1... The bottom row, far left is a Camo Variation (Miami lettering is in camouflage on the jersey - it also has a card code on the lower back corner of 7123 which means it is a Camo Variation (Books for $10).... A more rare photo variation (don't have it) would have a code of 7125 on the back and goes for $125 Edited May 8, 2021 by CyggyMarlin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyggyMarlin Posted May 8, 2021 Author Share Posted May 8, 2021 And here is an example of Border Parallel... Three of the cards are basic (Base) regular cards but the bottom left has a purple colored border and has a bit more value 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
