It’s my favorite looking Soto card in my collection. Hands down. The contrast with the red and blue looks super awesome.

Ughh I am LIVID that I never picked up a hands-on-hips last season when it was $200-$300. They’ve been listed at $500+ recently. Maybe more will list closer to the season.

He does have a 2019 rookie cup sapphire that’s the closest thing to one, although it’ll never quite be what could have been if there were an 18 version

Default **The Perennial JUAN SOTO Thread!**

Anyone have advice on how tough they grade
surface for becket grading?

Just got this finally in the mail. Under 30x magnification. Corners and edges are perfect. Centering looks pretty good. But there are a few white spots on back of card and maybe a small mark in front. I hate to cut the seal if they are going to murder me.

Every time I see someone post up that “cracked ice” prizm, I immediately think about how I bought this for basically pennies to what it sells for today, thanks to TBP. Eric put me on the PJ game.

I’ve always thought it was slight left heavy on the centering. Haha! But thank, man! I actually picked this up on COMC.

You can tell by the dots at the bottom. Match up the gaps on the sides, yours is dang near perfect!

Can anyone please tell me what the two BGS 9.5 2016 Bowman Chrome Juan Sotos went for that ended today? One was $7999 best offer, the other was a $7000 best offer from PWCC. Thanks in advance!

Makes you wonder how much longer that RedWave listed at $399 will last. It’s centered well so surprised it’s still available

I'd keep the 1/1 as is .... no need to get that slabbed.

I agree. No need to grade a 1/1. Also, keep that sticker as clean as you can. It’ll make a difference if you ever go to sell it.
