PSA Regular tier by the numbers:
$1,600 in fees for 20 cards.
~$600 net profit from 3 sales
Most of the rest stays in the PC, but a few nicer wins as well I will sell when the time is right.
Only justified because I'm keeping these no matter the grade. Otherwise with Value tier reopened at half the cost, it would've been the better fit for most of these.
Not on the checklist: Caleb Williams High School SSPs are turning up in 2026 Bowman's U Best Football.
Peyton Manning and Josh Allen are listed with a few parallels, but no Caleb. Mis-insert or unannounced short print? Either way, keep an eye out when you rip. 👀
Shout to the supporter who flagged this one!

🚨 The Fall League bats I like are moving.
Dax Kilby, Yankees: .994 OPS. Raw auto ~$74 Oct 2, ~$94 now, last two sold $120, $130.
Arjun Nimmala, Angels: .980 OPS. ~$59 to ~$63, last three sold $68-$80.
I'll be watching both over the coming weeks. Who's on your AFL list?
Track both on HobbyMonitor web or mobile.

This is devastating news
Mail day hobby history!
This Dustin Pedroia is a Topps Vault piece, straight from Topps' own archives through a program that launched with eBay back in 2001. Proofs, 1/1s, and production artifacts. Can't imagine we'll ever see something like this again.
Upper Deck Sweet Spot signatures, starting in 2001, put autos on leather swatches styled like a baseball's sweet spot. They're infamous for fading, so when I saw how clean this Daisuke looked I had to snag it.
As for Big Papi, whenever I see a cheap licensed non-Topps relic of a 2000s era Red Sox legend, it's an easy pick up.
