I was doing the math, and I think I should be able to go for one of those bigger cards in the $20,000 range in the next 6-8 weeks, maybe sooner, depending on how much some of my staking rewards to crypto end up being worth, as it's all market dependent.

I just don't want to make the mistake of buying a big card just to buy one, and get burned down the road. I think I'm going to try and save up over the next three months for a few bigger cards. I might buy a few in the $1,000 range here and there over the next few months, but I think I'm just going to try and save and go higher end.
Good plan.

Have one of my Lamar colors blasts arriving today.


What kind of impact do you think a second Lamar MVP would have on his card values if he wins one this year?

They'd go up and stabilize with a new floor unless he really stunk up the joint in the playoffs.

Don't blame you. It's an extremely boom or bust situation.

If that team was more talented and had a chance to make some noise, I'd consider it, but I don't see that right now.

I would be buying and hoping that the organization turns it around in the coming years. Don't think it's worth it.

What was your opinion on this one again, @Regular_P ?

2018 Select Field Level Green Prizm Lamar Jackson ROOKIE RC /5 PSA 10 GEM MINT | eBay



Also, in regards to the Watson card, that is similar to the Jackson gold that I didn't buy? Same level and everything? What would you value something like that card at? And, BGS 9 worth it still?

I don't think I would go for it as I'm trying to stick to my plan and save up for 6-10 weeks to buy a big boy card, and Watson's situation is too risky for me right now, but still interested in opinions.

Gold > Green, it's still a big card though but a Gold means more.

The Watson is a bigger card than the Lamar was. Prizm > Select for low numbered parallels and Gold is king outside of 1/1s. A 2017 Mahomes Gold Prizm would be a six figure card by comparison.

So, Prizms tend to be the most valuable, but Gold is the most sought after other than 1/1's, even if another version of the card is numbered lower?

And, Prizm is better than select?

Yes on all counts though regular Prizm has Black Golds now that are numbered to 5. I'm not sure if they go for more or less than a regular /10 gold since they rarely surface.

So far, these are probably my best or highest valued cards. Nothing crazy, but it's a start.
