Great crack and re-sub TB! Love it when that works out.

kltomek - a true gem black is so rare. Great pickup!

Not quite Canseco/McGwire but pretty cool nonetheless.

Really nice dual auto, but I did notice it's 2019 with a 2021+ autograph. I wonder what took them so long to make it. Awesome card either way!

And Alex has all the big kahuna cards

Thank you sirs!

I was very pleasantly surprised the seller accepted my first offer without a counter, and even more so when it arrived with a clean surface

Gorgeous clear!
I told myself I'm not going to chase all the Topps Now SPs that have been coming out, but I did want the kanji version of the Dodgers signing card, and now I've got one!

I just got home from a 250 table show + trade day and I am elated.

The show was about 2 hours drive from my house and I initially only planned to go on Friday. I went, did some deals and drove home that night feeling pretty good about the day.

Something told me that I must return on Saturday, perhaps the spirit of Decoy guiding me to the Ohtani I most desire.

I hadn't got much sleep Friday night so I was very tired but I followed this siren call along the 2 hour drive there, walked around the show floor and mostly just saw the same cards I had seen the night prior. It almost felt like a waste. But the spirit of Decoy whispered to me to stick around for the trade night after. I did so.

Right as I was making one final look around at the wares others had brought to the trade night I spotted out of the corner of my eye a gentlemen that only had 10 cards in front of him that were perfectly aligned, almost professionally so. I walk over to him and see a stunning array of high end Ohtani autos including the very one that I was destined to purchase tonight.

Behold, the real one:



All praise to Decoy.

I also bought many other Ohtanis but I'm simply too tired right now to photograph them. Maybe tomorrow.

One nice thing about this pickup is that I no longer desire a #700 black. I got my white whale. I am satiated (for now....).

Qubits, great pickup man. Trade? Cash? Combination of both? Either way, THAT is a keeper. Love to hear stories like this, thanks for sharing. It was your destiny to find it!
