    The light blue prizm looks pretty sweet with the lions colors

    My son would destroy that, haha. Very cool though. I remember growing up and one kid had a mlb fitted of every team and was so jealous of that wall mount

    He will probably destroy it when he's older but he can't reach any of it right now (famous last words).

    Was at Wal Mart, didn't have any baseball I wanted, so grabbed the last two mosaic football hangers.

    First had nothing but a Jameson Williams silver variation.

    Second one had a Justin Fields National Pride genesis.

    Went with light blue prizm for Lions cards, if anyone pulls any light blue prizm lions from this year's release let me know (think they are in hangers)

    If anyone is curious, the 2022 Mosaic football hanger boxes are just a box with the hanger pack in them.

    Yes, there was a cardboard shortage for a little bit so they put them in just plastic like the cello packs, now they have some cardboard and it’s back to Hanger boxes.

    Seems like a waste of cardboard since all they did was take the hanger pack and throw it in a box.

    Just bought two Topps Chrome Allen and Ginter hobby boxes from Frank Js to rip at fantasy baseball draft this weekend. I am the only person of the 10 who collect so hopefully I get someone to join me

    Anyone have any knowledge on 2022 Heritage Sparkle cards? I’m looking into purchasing a Wander blue sparkle and not finding much for ones that have been graded, are they a tough grade? I’ve found a few but lots of white on the edges.

    Out of 94 Wanders graded, only 1 has gotten a Gem Mint 10 from PSA. 15 PSA 9s. 54 PSA 8s.

    If you're buying to grade and flip then I'd look elsewhere

    So the Topps chrome McDonalds all American set doesn’t have Bronny autos. Sucks for those that bought thinking he was in it.

    Damn, I wanted to Grade and hold and flip when the time is right. I’ve been trying to snag 1 for around $35 and even if I don’t grade flip it when he has a hot streak

    Who is everyone buying low and hoping to sell High. Mine right now is Tork, Franco, Giddey, Cunningham, and Burrow, yes he’s proven but his prices are still fairly low and if he can win a Super Bowl they should skyrocket.

    Torkelson could be a nice buy. He was bad last year. Like really bad lol. But he still carried a respectable Exit Velo and Hard Hit % with a comically low ISO and BAbip.

    Off the top of my head, some guys I'll be trying to buy in the offseason are Cade, Jalen Williams, Franz Wagner, Okongwu, LaMelo. Never thought I'd be buying LaMelo but he had a lost season and I'm sure plenty of people have jumped off the bandwagon.

    I love Burrow and think he's easily a top 3 QB but the 2020 guys are getting to the age where their cards decline despite performance. Cards are all about prospecting these days. Mahomes won his 2nd MVP, 2nd Super Bowl and 2nd SB MVP and his prices were relatively flat.

    Basketball cards have been in decline for a few months. Weird market. I'm not very interested in owning any basketball right now

    Baseball took a huge jump and I'm really interested to see if prices hold up through the season. I'm hopeful that the new rules will make the game more watchable and it results in the baseball card market climbing.

    I'm holding a few bowman prospects for prospecting purposes but other than that, I'm not buying much.

    I would say they are all pretty close to the same but if so had to guess on a rank it would be orange, red, pink, silver or just cracked ice.

    lol and it was so obvious too. You clearly see another card and then, poof, it disappears and he distracts by sleeving those two cards.

    I miss the days when cardsinfinity was the main breaker people used

    Thankfully some of those have been weeded out since the market fell and the speculators got their asses handed to them. But there are still waaay too many terrible people in the card community.
