Well, apart from BO, I also follow non hobby sites/forums. And while I’ve read nothing that confirms, I’ve also read nothing that suggests the Braves will delay his call up. So like everyone else, I’m speculating.

Beyond Acuna, I don't see anyone else making a HUGE impact because this isn't the 1st chrome for most of the other guys. In order for the product to increase in value, someone would have to get into the $40-50+ range, and I just don't see it.

Right now is your ideal window, because Ohtani's value is still decent and Acuna hype is crazy. Wait 2+ months and I hardly see a scenario where these gain enough value to make money.
return in a week is now over double at 125 a box.

no risk here lol

LOL!

So much ignorance on the concept of supply and demand and what triggers price increases.

I think this is what happens when a $15 retail product has a good run...

It’s over, Ronny.

You peaked at 20.

At least in that regard you’re still better than half the people who went to high school in this country.

OMFG...Acuna hit a double! Everyone panic (or use the hit as another excuse to excessively pump up and annoy everyone about the mega boxes)!

Page 4?? More than 2 days without a post? For shame, Acuna and Mega Box hype machines.

Guess 3 for 25 with 10 strikeouts has become more than "just a couple games" for you?

....he'd have to be doing it in the majors for it to be Kevin Maas. He's doing it in AAA.

Back in the day, no one thought that Maas would be like a Maas situation.
