I'll update this every month... feel free to discuss your joys and pains of Trout PSA 10 rookie collecting below!

[B][U]Couple of notes[/U][/B]:

1) I'm only tracking his PSA Rookie Set Registry cards

2) Data is pulled from the PSA Auction Prices Realized tool (Oct 2016 to present)

3) Data prior to October 2016, was pulled from PWCC's tool that tracks back to 2004 ([I]Note: good data didn't really seem usable until Oct 2012[/I])

4) Monthly averages are/were calculated based on all data points for the given month as long as 3 sold were recorded, if not, it was the average of the last 10, not to exceed 90 days. Where gaps existed beyond 90 days between sales, the prevailing average just carried forward

5) With regards to the 2011 Panini Prime Cuts PSA 10 Pop 1... I know when it sold and for how much. For this particular card, I simply applied an algorithm forward and reverse to match the combined trend of the other 7 cards. It may or may not actually be able to realize as much, or as little, as the price denoted today... if sold today! [b]UPDATE:[/b] The card is now a Pop 2 and we had a sale in June 2019. Moving forward, until another sale is recorded, I will now trend off the June number as was previously done when the card was a Pop 1.

I want that Prime Cuts card. I’ll take a beat up copy!

I just have a lowly PSA 9 on the prime cuts... but there you go! Nice suggestion!

Bowman 101's are undervalued IMO. They should be going for more.

Agreed, very tough card to 10.

I will live and die believing the BC175 is the most undervalued of them all though...

I agree. It is one beautiful looking card, especially when it’s decently centered. :)!

Nice bump for them last year. I think once buyers start expanding their collections there will be another push.

I need to turn my BGS 9.5 US175 into a PSA 10!

What about the eTopps? If you are putting unlicensed Playoff Contenders then you gotta put licensed RC logo eTopps in there. Any way you can do that? They are all numbered to 999

That eTopps has been selling really well too! The red just pops and the overall looks is amazing. It also helps that it is limited to only /999 copies with no parallels. :)

That is one of my favorite Trout cards of all time!

After about a 10 year hiatus from collecting (late high school, military, starting a career)... I got back into card collecting because of eTopps! It pains me to this day that the hobby-powers-that-be don't/won't consider eTopps cards true RCs because of their distribution method(s). With that said, as I stated above...

1) I'm only tracking his PSA Rookie Set Registry cards

:(

[QUOTE=epatmythes;14457696]I will live and die believing the BC175 is the most undervalued of them all though...[/QUOTE]

That's good for me, it's the next card on my list. I still can't believe how much the Update has skyrocketed in the last year. I suffer from classic FOMO and bought mine at the height of the market, lol.

Any chance the update PSA 10 reaches $1K?

[QUOTE=messier2;14459287]Any chance the update PSA 10 reaches $1K?[/QUOTE]

Doubt this year could be wrong though

Sold my Update PSA 10 for $745.01 and Bowman Draft (BGS 9.5 GEM+) for $265 this month

Thanks for putting this all together and tracking this, it is very interesting.

Wow... so its the 2nd most expensive behind Sterling and the Update at 3rd place

Surprised prime cuts sells for so much. No logos or signature

[QUOTE=Soxfanguy;14462125]Surprised prime cuts sells for so much. No logos or signature[/QUOTE]

It’s honestly because they’re so limited (99 copies in the world).

[QUOTE=Soxfanguy;14462125]Surprised prime cuts sells for so much. No logos or signature[/QUOTE]

Technically, no logos or sig... but still considered by the hobby as an official RC. Only 99 copies exist... and one has not hit the open market (raw or graded), since October 2017.

At one point in 2013, I owned 16 of the 99. I don't want to say regret... but if I do have one card-collecting-regret... it was not keeping more than the one I own today. I want/need another really badly :)

Great thread. Will be interesting to follow. Ready for opening day.

[QUOTE=speedyjg13;14462116]I second this

I have said for a long time this will be 1000

I just did not think it would go from 250 to 750 in last year

Pretty crazy ... I bought mine Jan 2018 for 254.00

I thought he would have to win 1-2 more mvps

500/3000 someday. Say 10-15 years it goes to a grand

I actually think this early 750 is a risky buy

I've always felt $1K was possible, but $750 would (should) be about the ceiling... the market is proving me wrong (once again)!

I get the flagship design love... but it still kind of baffles me how insane the following is on that card and how, to me at least, it makes a few of those other RCs just seem downright undervalued!

Jump on board now.... once the season begins the train will leave the station and those left behind will regret not boarding.

for the Update non-believers.... i ask..... what are the 2011 Update Boxes at?

the card is iconic. one of the most iconic RCs in the history of the company

lets make a list of other Topps RCs that are on the same level of PRICE/Iconicness in the history of Topps baseball

Mathews? No
Aaron? Yes
Kaline? No
Banks? No
Clemente? Yes
Koufax? Eh
FRob? No
Gibson? No
Rose? Possibly
Seaver? No
Ryan? Yes
Reggie? No
Schmidt? No
Brett? Possibly
Henderson? Possibly

you get the point

[QUOTE=Ferg1945;14462873]Jump on board now.... once the season begins the train will leave the station and those left behind will regret not boarding.[/QUOTE]

oh that train be long gone by now and those left behind are already regretting.

[QUOTE=SirTommyWinAlot;14463063]oh that train be long gone by now and those left behind are already regretting.[/QUOTE]

It still makes occasional stops to let others on board. Seating is getting limited tho.

Oct 2017 , that was the one I bought, paid around 500 back then but was a pwcc auction. Still have it, was one of the first Trout’s I bought.

Another 800 one sold today. The rest for today are high 700s.

People sure love Update.

2011 Update BGS 10 pristine seems like good value compared to PSA 10. Multiplier is about 2.5 ($2000/$800), but population is 1/20 (200/4000).

Black label multiplier is 12.5 ($10,000 avg for last 2 sales/$800), population is 1/160 (25/4000).

i would hope so, one is Pristine, one is Gem Mint

My bad, I meant good value = undervalued. For the price of 2.5 psa 10s, you get a trout RC that's 20x rarer.

[QUOTE=ThoseBackPages;14470986]i would hope so, one is Pristine, one is Gem Mint[/QUOTE]

800
830
789
792
775
789
784
789
784

I'm the outlier at 830, sorry I jacked up the price

Feel bad for the person who bought a PSA 10 US175 Walmart auto for 6k yesterday

Some more sold

795
840

Also Walmart blue at 3500

Now the mean price of the US175 today is 797.

If there is a another eBay sale day, they will probably get to 900

I'm bummed that Ebay had the 15% this week. I've got 2 PSA 10's shipping from PSA today. Should have them by Friday.

Another 830 sold

839 now cheapest BIN

That 830 is mine but for 775, couldnt resist with the coup

Not PSA 10s but thought it would be interesting to know prices on US175

9s sell for 400

8s sells for 300

7s sell for 225

6s sell for 200
