Optic is by far the more popular brand and its legacy will continue to grow, so Id go with Pink Velocity /79 at those prices.
I agree with this!

Lol I'm torn between the two also.... Or do I just sit back and not do anything at this point? I do have a nice stash of about 30 psa 10's ranging from revolution to blue Prizm so maybe I'll just tap out now?

Yea, we are at the point where the only retail to leave for the kids are:

I know it's all speculation, but do people think a Luka green prizm or Luka purple optic has better long term value?

I have 2 Luka green prizms and 2 Luka purple optics. Would like to sell 1 now during this rush to hedge my bet a bit.

Status is down on my list, but I was searching for some chronicle in the wild and picked up 2 status fat packs. Every mans RC but Luka, but did hit a Collin Sexton 07/10 so not bad at all for clearance packs.

Once chronicles is no longer being found in the wild prices will go up, but Luka must keep balling.

Would agree with TBP on the Green prizm being a better long-term value.

Flooded with lower end non graded cards yes.... Nothing in auction format for the higher end cards as I think most who have are holding...

But I agree, over 12k luka postings right now and just 5 days ago there were only 8k

I think a lot of the preseason prospectors are selling right now and making their 2-3x. It’ll be interesting to see how things fluctuate before Christmas.

Luka’s prices have plateaued in the past week despite continued success.

I honestly think if he had grabbed 1 more rebound the last two games (for 2 more triple doubles) the prices would still be going up. People gravitate towards the words "triple double" but they won't read a stat line to see he was only off by 1 rebound each night.

Plateau is only because prizm has hit the market. Flippers are now buying prizm so prices will now till the all-star game and or the end of season unless this rookie class just fails miserably.

Next 5 games are all winnable the schedule gets pretty rough after that for a few games but if they can atleast win 4 of the next 5 should be in good shape and prices will rise more imo.

100% agree with this, just like trae having 49 the other night. theres a huge difference in having 49 and 50 in hobby eyes, when really its nothing.

A solid rookie card for sure, I would take an optic shock over a base prizm.

Not a RC (its a parallel), but a good pickup!

For optic shock keep an eye out for print lines. That parallel is notorious for it.
