I declined the offer.

Purchased a lot of over 100 Ohtani RCs for a great price yesterday. All are raw and were pulled by the previous owner. Going to take some time to decide which ones I want to grade.

Here are the better ones.

Recently, a couple full sets of 2018 On Demand 1978 Topps sold on ebay; a 30 card checklist printed to /2040. The first one went for less than the probable value of the Ohtani RC within; the second set finished higher but perhaps also less than the Ohtani’s value with that proposition less certain.

Anyhow just wondering if any of you fine collectors may have picked up one of those sets?

I already have the Ohtani RC and a few others on the checklist but am looking to now complete the set. If you’d like to move the 29 other cards, get in touch.

Enjoyed the video. He has a very friendly & honest approach with a willingness to compromise, unlike the dealers I've encountered locally. Glad he's too far away for me or I'd be broke.

A guy pulled the 2026 Series 1 75th anniversary die cut 1/1 Ohtani auto at Legends Attic(Orel Hershiser's shop) during rip night yesterday out of a jumbo.

yoyosh · 02-22-2026, 02:00 PM

Any Sho experts know about these “China Day” cards?
I enjoy pajama cards and picked them up long before the explosion.
There’s been 19 of the pitching (#d to 399) cards graded by PSA and 4 of the memorabilia cards (all are 8s). Thanks in advance

That's a nice shop. Sold a high end Ohtani to him and his partner once. Nice people too. They clearly aren't hurting for money and prioritize the experience.

Psa gems selling for north of 12k, either BGS has really collapsed or someone got a great deal.

The Fire batting RC is my favorite of all his RCs. I have no idea why I do not have one yet.

Yeah, all those Fire RCs and parallels are so often overlooked, but really cool. Will they ever catch on and have greater value? Who knows, but they sure look great!

There is a lot of that happening with Japan listings.

Trueblue · 02-22-2026, 05:51 PM

The actual card is on Mint mall Japan for 40 something K. Just a bunch of arbitrage sellers. Japan tariffs are tough too and uncertain after the recent ruling and global flat tax. What a time we live in.

NYRE2PECT · 02-22-2026, 07:20 PM

Sheesh, there seems to be more and more of these CGC and MBA Certified Authentic cards on Fanatics. On ultra-modern what is the point!?
