I'd say it all comes down to whether you think he'll take a big step this year.

I sold my two Acuna Gem Sapphires last summer and doubled my money. Seeing what they're selling for has me wincing, but that money landed me some Vlads that have made up for it. Your Vlad will be THE card if he comes out the gate hitting like a beast.

This is a tough call for me. Love the card and grade but Vlad is not in the same RC situation as Acuna. I think the Sapphire will definitely move up if he does well but I think there are other cards that Acuna did not have that will move up better % wise, namely Mystery Auto & TC 201 Parallels.
