The fact the base cards and the LLs are trading around the same tells us how many participants aren't real baseball card collectors, but NFT people. I think watching the price differentials is a good sign of how many collectors versus NFT-in-it-for-the-flip guys there are in now.

Agreed, I've come to this same conclusion over the last 3 or 4 days and it's surprised me. Guess I shouldn't have been surprised, traditional collectors and crypto are mostly oil and water at this point in time. Ninjacookies excluded lol.

I'm hoping for stolen base leaders the last 4 years for the mini pack.
All 4 had cards in series 1. Scooped up a few of each for 7-10 wax.

If anyone has been curious and browsing this thread, but hasn't bought any of these NFTs for whatever reason, I'm willing to send you one along with a little bit of WAX for free so that you can play around with it and learn how it all works at no risk.

Just sign up for a free cloud wallet at WAX.io and then send me a message with your wallet address (ends in .wam) and tell me your favorite team. I can try to help with any questions too. I just want to encourage more adoption of this platform.

I also picked up stolen base leaders and then saves leaders from past few years.
I guessed well last week and hoping to hit again on at least one of these categories either this week or next. If not, they were all sub-$3 and most in the $1.50 range, and I'm out $50.

Stolen base - mondesi, mallex Smith, Merrifield, turner, Gordon
Saves- Hand, osuna, Yates, Davis and Britton

there's lots of speculation on the discord about the silver sluggers and gold gloves repeating in weeks 4 and 5, and the prices of those commons reflect that. but i can't imagine that they would double dip on the categories like that. i too guessed correctly on gold gloves last week, but had some left over (i'm looking at you Roberto Perez) so i dropped those holdings.
I've been looking through the set to find a few 4-5 card 'subsets' that could be possible crafts. and have picked up a few of those.

I could see this too. The stolen base and closers don't really have many big names so they may stick to more notable categories - I also had a few gold glovers and cards I thought may be used last week left over - salvy, yadi, canning, lindor, Roberto Perez etc

They repeated Cy Youngs, so I think it makes sense to speculate they will repeat Silver Sluggers and Gold Glovers. If they go with one tomorrow, then the other one will shoot up real quick.

Can you give a brief overview of what happened to TopShot when it started caving and where it is now?

Right now sales are slow so it’s not as liquid, but when it was bullish it was very quick if you priced stuff right.

Interesting sales trends in the past hour!

Either craft cards have leaked somewhere or people are spending a lot of $$ on a few specific players in anticipation. Some rookies, all Angels, Gold Glove are just a few I have noticed.

That same account that has been buying lots of Angels common cards was buying lots of Astros common cards before that. Maybe they're just trying to buy up all of the cheap players.

Yes I know this, but this is a new separate no return for nft policy thought ebay which would make me feel much better about listing my really hi $ NFT.
