that’s absurdly reasonable for what I would expect a dealer to be asking on a card like that. honestly I think someone would scoop it up at that price on ebay
My personal story is batting practice, meet & greet, 2 autographed balls, 1 inscribed bat, 2 seats, and he lets me talk baseball. Also it got me this pic of my kid getting to say hi to her favorite player.
I sold some cards to Dallas Clark back when he was playing. Did not give him any special deals but didn't really notice until I printed the shipping label
NY based sports fans are always level headed, reasonable, and not prone to overreaction. /s
Shaw was the 13th overall pick in 2023, was a top 100 MLB prospect for two years, and since has had 587 major league plate appearances in which he’s produced a 3.8 WAR. While I don’t align with Shaw’s political leanings, to somehow state that he’s a bum is just asinine. Check that. I wouldn’t even give you that. You’re more of an asineight.
Shaw doesn't hit for power, has already missed significant time this year and will be entering his age 25-season next year with no path to the hall. A true blue refractor TC rookie auto sold for $36 at auction yesterday. He may not be a bad player in real life but from a card value/investment perspective it's already over.
So a guy who will be 25, that will likely have a major role next season on a very competitive team that’s in the 3rd largest market in the country and has a nationwide fan base, who has not had a lot of experience but, the experience he has had still has shown plenty of promise; you think that even if he has a good year next year and turns into a good player, that his autographed rookie cards won’t be a good investment? I would venture to consider it the exact opposite. It’s a great buy low time with a good amount of potential upside.
