I was paying attention. I already had some NNO stashed. I like the refractor a lot and it was cheap, so I chased it for a while.

Much like NNO 10s in late 2019, had I known this one would be at $300+ now, I would have bid higher on some of those auctions.

Well played!

Vlad market back then:





I really do think the Refractors will eventually be multiples of the NNO. As special as the NNO card is, every player's Topps Base is normally harder to grade % wise but the Chrome always outpaces it despite a higher Gem POP and Gem % historically. The Refractors? They are normally multiples of both base.

With PSA's halting on grading today and the foreseeable backlog I would imagine that the current POP gap of 3800 (NNO) & 800 (Refractor) will be what we will see for quite a while.
