3. Bowman Chrome Ref PSA 10 - 14K

4. Topps Chrome Update Batting PSA 10 - 12K

#4 is my favorite from that list, and it's because I own one too.

My order of preference on that choice would be...
4, 3, 1, 2

2 is a distant 4th for me, with the other three in close race.

And while this is probably NOT the most desired Shohei RC out there, here's my oddball sho-off from the previous PSA submission. It is numbered to /50.

I stand by my comment earlier that I like to understand the main income stream from high-end sellers in person-to-person transactions

I vaguely remember that. That's wild. So if they packed the leftovers out, the total in circulation should be right around 10.

Imagine opening a 2018 Mega, hitting the expired Sho redemption, and finding out they packed your card out as a freebie in another product

. I'm glad they rectified some of these issues in 2023, but so messed up when the card was intended to be packed inside the product.

Wanted to share some pics from Saturday. What an awesome game/experience. Can't believe I got to see Shohei pitch from so close. That Teo home run was crazy. It looked like a pop-up that just kept going.

It was also a weird experience cheering when the crowd went silent, but the Phillies fans were cool, at least the ones we were sitting around—all fun. Also, Glasnow is huge. Overall, 10/10 game would recommend, including the win

.

Cool pics, thanks for sharing! You saw a good one for sure!

Trueblue · 10-06-2025, 01:46 PM

super cool - what an environment that must have been. Nothing like playoff baseball. Thanks for sharing!

ThoseBackPages · 10-06-2025, 01:59 PM

Very nice, love the bowman holiday parallels!

FatboyWu · 10-06-2025, 02:34 PM

Love the 2018 and 2019 combo, still working on the chrome SP's. I can't seem to find a 2020 or 2021 image variation for Shohei, was he not included those years or am I just not looking hard enough.

Citizens Bank ballpark is waaaay up on my list due to atmosphere alone.

A member of this forum shared this with me recently. I’ve been thinking about making an updated version. Looks like no Chrome SPs/SSPs in 2020 or 2021.

We need more spreadsheets like this - that's awesome.

hammertime · 10-06-2025, 04:51 PM

Yeah an updated version would be killer!

Well at least he's swinging the bat and making contact.

SaveMeTheGum · 10-06-2025, 06:52 PM

Dueling 1-hitters. Impressive. I guess...

hammertime · 10-06-2025, 07:08 PM

RBI single, I'll take it.
