**The Perennial MIKE TROUT Thread**

[kidfan9]

With that stolen base Mike Trout becomes the youngest player ever to have 250 HR’s and 200 SB’s.

[Ferg1945]

Scored a run on Pujols HR.

Even when he is quiet... he still scores runs... drives in runs and is on the base paths all night long.

Can anyone help me with trying to complete the Topps Finest Gold /50 run? Need 2011, 2014 and 2015. Prefer raw but will look at graded too. Thanks!

For some reason his WAR went down after last night’s game. Don’t get it

I don't understand why they'd be this high...but I'm not complaining either

Does anyone know how long it takes for PSA Auction Prices to update for these sales? I don’t see them listed there. Thanks!

Thanks, saw that. Seems awfully high. Maybe I’ll make an offer. Appreciate your reply!

With the Acuna madness going full steam ahead I figured I'd settle for a Mike Trout.

Nobody could've said it any better, Reggie. Too many people IMO get all worked up at the idea of "overpaying". Several thoughts on that:

1) Sometimes there are only a handful of the card(s) you have been drooling over for months, if not years. If so, pay up. You gotta pay to play!

2) In Trout's case (and a handful of other players), today's "overpay" is tomorrow's "incredible deal".

3) if you consider it a hobby and buy for the fun of owning a card you've wanted a very long time, then overpaying a bit doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things.. not to me anyway.

I overpay on almost all my Trout cards. Literally almost all of them. If I want it, I'm gonna pay up. And it's okay because my overpay sets the new market for the card and with time, my overpay looks like a bargain. Just over pay it, don't trip, potato chip!

I also agree on overpaying if you are good with it on a card you really want. There have been some cards I didn't go the extra 20 or hundred on that I wish I could I would've. Some of the cards you might not see again. But this is coming from a hobby collector. Flippers YMMV.

GOLD!!!!!

[wharfrat7624]

I’m wondering if the card is a cross over candidate to a BGS 9.5. Has near perfect centering...

MORE GOLD!!!

[wharfrat7624]

Thanks Guys! The GOLD was on my list to buy - sold a TU base PSA 10 + another card to acquire. I’m pretty happy with the card.

Sounds like a good upgrade. What other card did you sell?
