That Wil Myers is a steal, solid deals on the rest of them too. Congrats, but I personally have been on a Sterling Black and Gold Refractor kick. To each his own.

Thanks Man I have mainly been on this kick where I can get and Elite auto of a guy that had no other auto's that year all of the above guys had chrome auto's that came out the following year. I was really looking for the First Year Cards of these guys and happened to snag some really good deals.

I did the same thing with Mat Latos a few years back, but then just watched all the Chrome AUTO's from a year later blow right past them anyways. I am very curious to see how the Elite pan out if a true superstar emerges from the sets. The 2007 Matt Wieters hit $200, but he fell flat on his face. Jason Heyward and Aroldis Chapman might be on the verge (if they make Chapman a starter anytime soon). Brandon Belt and Domonic Brown are next in line, let's see if they can make a Rookie of the Year run and see how the hobby reacts to their Donruss EEE AUTO's.

I sold several Dom Browns from elite and tripled what i paid for them so I was happy with that. I think the Key is that they don't have any other auto's that year. Although Heyward elites hold there own very well to his base sterlings of 2007.
Same Goes For Chapman His Elite Base Auto's Sell for what his Chrome Ref auto sells for. This can be found throughout the Elite brand as long as there are no other Auto's to compete with for that year. I guess I look at elite as very underrated if you can buy in pretty cheap you can flip fairly easily for profit.
And besides the 2009 Elite had some on card Auto's like the Jackson up top or some of the Wil Myers I have stashed away!
