I have 5 of the 2018 Topps Now Ohtani cards which were graded by PSA.

The PSA 10 seems to go for $200 on Ebay.

What do you people think of the future value of the cards?  Is there anything Ohtani can do to get to an even higher level of prestige?

I'll be honest and didn't think his cards would go any higher but they have.

I sold all of my ohtanis 2 months too early.  My BC RC sold for 1400.  Its a 3400 card now.  Everything I had doubled and tripled in price.

In all my years collecting I have never seen a surge like this.

There is a huge bull market right now that isn't sustainable. Eventually people are going to stop making money and it will crash.

As long as hes healthy and plays good and the card market is still bullish his stuff will go up.

When will any of the above stop happening is anybodys guess though.

Thanks for your thoughts!

NP congrats on the Ohtani 10!

It was a bit weird…..the 5 cards were stored together and submitted to PSA together.  I got back a 10, three 9’s and an 8.&

It’s not weird.  PSA has become so unpredictable with their grading its dumb.  I sent in 4 of those Topps now Ohtani and got all 10’s.  I sold the other 6 to a friend and he got the rest 10’s.

Topps now cards have really good QC.  You getting 8’s is such a scam.

You can ready peoples horror stories with it.

Went to a smaller show in Rockaway yesterday.  Saw a card I wanted.  Talked w the dealer and told them I will be in touch.

That card and another high profile one was stolen from their table by a woman.  They have her on tape.

God I hope they catch her!

Been doing Ebay, and some of the bigger card dealers/sellers/buyers.
Picked up a
1960 Aaron
1960 Mays
Still shopping for Clemente. Already have Banks.

Then I will move on to 69 and 70. I always liked both those sets. Im just going to stick to those four players for a while, but I don't see myself investing in every years card. There are sets I just don't like.
