Default MAILDAY: 2008 Russell Westbrook Topps Chrome RC

I just got this 2008 Russell Westbrook Topps Chrome RC! I bought it for $31 on eBay. I've been wanting this card for a while. Without Durant in the picture, I'm sure he will have a monster year.

Wow, these have gone up big time!

I remember when this was a $1-2 card.

Russ is my dark pony favorite for MVP.
Okc Needs to be a top 4 seed out west.
Russ to break single season triple double record.

I agree. That is why I jumped on this card. Westbrook was a beast each time Durant didn't play last year.. so I have a feeling this coming year will be Westbrook's best season. I think it's going to be so good, he'll be crowned MVP. Durant & Curry will bring their own numbers down because there's only one ball to pass along in GSW. So Westbrook has a good chance to win it. Hopefully this card will go up afterwards.

I remember selling the refractor version a few years ago (after finding it in a random stack of Chrome in my closet) and getting like $20 out of it. Should have held on to it.

That one has pretty nice centering. It's not easy finding a nicely centered base or base refractor.

Yes, centering is a huge issue with this card. I got really lucky mine is almost perfectly centered (for $31).
