✹The PERENNIAL Shohei Ohtani Thread✹

[BBases31]

Ohtani will pick where he wants to go, regardless of how much money is offered. He already proved that he doesn't care about money at the start of his career. Walked away from $100 million+ when he came into the league

Ship might've sailed on the PSA 10 BC /499. Last sale was almost $3,400 on May 4th, and lowest BIN is like $4,500. I watch this card pretty closely as I've got a raw version that is most likely a 9.

All these semi rare Ohtani variations from 2018 are increasingly being vaulted by collectors and are getting tougher to find readily available without super reach prices. It's crazy considering just how many options we have on his 2018 stuff, and we're not even talking about the super rare and auto stuff. Just wow.

Spend $5k instead

[Qubits]

Buy a PSA 9 instead and get a more rare card imo.

I assume Ohtani ends up on the west coast due to its approximation with Japan. Flights to Japan are shorter and the timing works better for his Japanese fans to watch his games. I also assume his endorsements in Japan make up a whole lot of his income and that he wants to cater to his home audience. I would love for him to be a Tiger (my team), but there is no way that happens. From a selfish standpoint I would like him to be on an east coast team so I could stay up and watch all of his games.

Actually I can't even help you. The cards I was going to recommend (series 2 parallels numbered to /76 or lower) aren't even available on ebay right now

And with Ohtani's current market who the hell knows what they'd even sell for if they popped up in a PSA 9.

Damn. I missed that. The BC non-auto is very popular.

[seanrs1]

In terms of some of my favorite SSP Ohtani cards...what does a 2018 Bowman sterling atomic /150 PSA10 or 2018 stadium club gold minted go for...I assume way less than 3k.

Best? I dunno. But my favorites would be Finest or BB parallels.

[Maddog5150]

2018 Panini The National VIP Red Wave Prizm ser. #25/25 9.5 #46
2018 Topps Update Gold /2018 9.5 #189
2018 Topps Update Independence Day /76 9.5 #189
2018 Topps Chrome Sepia refractor 9 #150

Who has any idea on these values?

The Topps stuff is all over the board, but the Panini National out of 25? I've never seen it out there before?

I'm not real good searching history on sales.

thanks for any help you've got for me.

Didn't think I needed this card until I saw this picture of it. Looks better than the orange imo

Feel bad for the Nationals Fans, it has been a fire sale ever since the World Series Win!!
