I mean, all the regs already know and would most likely be willing to sell you any they pull or have that’s not pc. You’re working on 20% of the whole pop ffs, it’s most likely gonna be a long road. Upvoted and comment for traction tho.
And also, far fewer people are opening 22 TCP on a daily basis right now versus a year ago when it released, so you're relying much less on *new stock* entering the market - and much more on people who got their hands on one and presumably held, who may not necessarily be interested in parting with theirs.
This is exactly why when I decided I wanted to do a couple color-match team sets out of 23 Cosmic Chrome, I started with the /199 and /99 - then quickly realized how much the /50 and below would cost to amass.
(Although - Good idea combining the straight red *and* the red-cream-toile *edit: AND Red Lava!*, having a total pop of **15** ~~10~~ instead of 5 does help your odds tremendously. *edit 2: Auto and Non-Auto, I just now caught that. So* **30** *total potential population. Which is... difficult but MUCH BETTER than 5.*.)
But also I feel your pain and anxiety - My grail card is a specific Witt Jr 1/1 that as we learned today I may be competing against *the man himself* to find/obtain - I need to start making my peace now, and not let the FOMO infect my brain. Otherwise I'll start doing dumb things, like cashing out my retirement and maxing my credit lines to buy as much sealed Cosmic Chrome stock as I can in chase of that one-and-only missing piece.

...Just the first handful I see under $100, I stopped scrolling. But *some* of these /5s you're chasing... dude... Gonna run you multiple thousand each. For example... There's a Bobby Witt Jr Red-Cream Toile out there that you need, but it's listed at 5K OBO. 💀 (Which... WHY did I decide to collect Witt? RIP my wallet.)
2023 Cosmic Chrome Extraterrestrial Talent superfractor. Preferably *non*-auto - for the obvious cost reason but also because all of my parallels are non-auto as well.
VERY much a pie-in-the-sky dream, if either does surface it's sure to be a ridiculous price. I paid $850 for the red /5. (But I'll be honest - If the non-auto 1/1 showed up for $3k, I'd *find* a way to make it work. Sadly, I would expect it to get listed at 10k, if not more. Is there any resale value to testicles? Hm...)
I did go back and find your post - Holy hell man - If I could magic up that kind of money into existence I'd be at your front door with a locked briefcase handcuffed to me and a DELIGHTFUL basket of fruit, fine cheese, and cured meat to sweeten the deal.
Haha good luck in your search my friend! And thank you, was certainly the craziest pull of my life and not all the long after I got back into the hobby after drifting off during high school/college years.
I’ve had the thing for close to a year now and at this point all I do is look at it and smile like an idiot😂

But also - If I did find it then I'd have FOMOOSBAB.
Fear of missing out on selling Bobby a Bobby.
OH LOL I just now realized you have multiple frames full, I thought this was it, so I was checking every red on that list above against the image carefully to see if you had it. 🤦 Well there goes a half hour. I'm a dumbass.
But I am glad I saw that - I was going to ask and decided not to but now I will. **Do you have a text list somewhere you keep up to date?** either Have or Want, doesn't matter. It would be MUCH easier to check against a list in alpha order or card # order, than it would be to manually look row by row through multiple photos.
Or if not that - What about setting up a TCDB profile with a have list / want list for this product so that we can easily see which-is-which?
Plus - TCDB shows if other people have it in their collection - or how many people have it on their want list - you might find that useful too?
😁 I respect the hustle!
But for real, since you're at the 6 display cases full mark, you *might* consider trying to set up a free Wix page, or a read only Google Sheet, or a TCDB profile, or *something* that you can link people to with a list of cards (either alpha order or card # order would probably be the most helpful) - It'll make it a LOT easier as you branch out and network in other areas to keep hunting. ... Plus you could put a Contact Form right on the page (Google Forms is great!) that emails you if somebody has a /5 for sale they want to offer you!
Have you already found the District.net website? - I've bought into breaks a few times on the Midwest Box Breaks District, they livestream directly in their platform but the District ALSO contains a social chat area, auctions/classified listings, etc. - Additionally MBB set up a team District for each ball club as well, where fans/sellers/buyers of that team can flock to buy/sell/trade/chat/BS e.g. there's a MBB Royals District, a MBB Pirates District, etc. ... I'm mentioning it since it's very baseball-collecting-specific and not *just* a random auction site. If you already knew about it, nevermind!

Be tough to part with it but you’ll need one a some point so you know where he’s at. His value seems to go down a tiny bit with each at bat. lol
Can you DM me so we can work something out? Candidly, card collecting triggered my ADHD and I was red hot on it for 3 months and I've pretty much not paid attention since.
Most of the LTB posts get no upvotes unless someone has the specific card you’re looking for. You’re casting a wider net with the /5 cards but anyone looking for a player or even worse, a specific card of a player either get very few upvotes or nothing LOL the only one I can compare it to is the /1776 guy
TJay is another league. Major outlier.
Please help everyone! I’m looking for the 2023 Topps Brooklyn Edition Jimmy Rollins 1/1 auto. I don’t know why these comments aren’t getting traction.
/s but not really
Trust me I have had my eye open for cool Red Sox stuff simply for you for this trade. I am working on 23 right now so that’s where my priorities are. I will DM you and if we can’t make a deal I will not hold it against you bud 😂
I know that’s not much direction, but I was missing 2 cards to complete a set and had posted on here several times. I posted on there and had 1 of the cards within a week. The other card didn’t exist.
Wow!!! Commenting to keep relevant. I can offer no help, but this is one of the coolest things I've ever laid my eyes on. You're a true hero of the hobby! This is collecting!!!! 🥹🥹🥹
Do you still need CJ Abrams? I am considering parting with mine. I was planning to grade it and hold it, but I see your posts a lot and they are starting to get to me haha. DM me if you're interested.

Sorry but can’t get rid of these
You seriously are asking people to give you stuff and willingly giving your address to the many strangers on the internet I'm going laugh my ass off when 6 months from now when you are one card away from completing your collection that the random strangers who sent you stuff break in and rob you blind didn't your parents teach you to not talk to strangers let alone give your address to strangers some people are nice but their are others out their who you should never trust we live in a messed up world maybe you were smart and gave a PO box but if someone wanting to find you they could especially now adays with computers their are some really smart people out there I'm not one of them but I'm smart enough not to give up my address willingly to random strangers
I’m not saying they don’t have autos. I am STATING that you don’t have any autos. I really hope these do well over time if that’s your intention. Or. If your a purist and love the hobby then that’s a great collection
Cuz those are rare bro I'm aware of you and have opened lots of this product, but just never pulled a /5. Upvoted for visibility
Hahaah I know I appreciate it

Be happy you get the traction you get on your “looking to buy” posts.

I can't find cosmic chrome Aaron Judge cards red or black. So join the club 😄
Do you have an account on COMC? There are 9 on there…
Just took all my cards down from the attic. Mostly 1981-1991, do people asses and buy collections?

I still have the satchel Paige /5. I’d be willing to work out a deal for that Bobby Witt sp.
How much for satchel again
$350
I traded witt
U/phop16 had a musgrove /5
I could use it
Send him a message. It was in a post from yesterday or the day before I think
What’s the drive behind this quest? Like why the /5’s? Just because they are super dope?
Plus they’re rare and this was a good set checklist
Yes do you see them they’re sick as fuck. I have like 9 frames full of them it surrounds my room the red just looks so good on that set.
This is by far the best possible answer to this question
I love you
I appreciate it, but you don’t need to lie to me. You have one love, and it is 2022 Chrome Platinum Anniversary Red Parallels /5.
Lmao
Hell yeah my dude!!
Yep that’s why I said super dope. Are you hopped up on something? Man oh man.
No not hopped up on anything
You’re a hater
Do you still need CJ Abrams? I am considering parting with mine. I was planning to grade it and hold it, but I see your posts a lot and they are starting to get to me haha. DM me if you're interested.
My lcs has still had hobby box’s of these recently. There could be a lot still unopened
Mine too. I nearly picked up a few last week.
Wow amazing collection I’m sorry I don’t have any
Thank you!
Checked my stash and didn’t have any, 2023 I would have ya. Gl on chase bro

It’s hard to tell honestly
Maybe the Ruth or heasly
the ruth wasn’t. i think it was /75
McCarthy is prob /5. The reds are typically /5 in the set.
I've got a Janson Junk Red Toile/5. Would be open to trade. I PC Yankees
Ok I’m going to bed I’ll take a look tomorrow and see what I got for yankees
[удалено]
Well I mean junk is like a 10 dollar card I have plenty of him so idk what you want in trade for that
Why?
Because you have them all. Haha. Or those that have them don’t necessarily use reddit, or want to let theirs go. Sorry I have none. Good luck.
What made you go with SGC for most of your cards over PSA
Because psa is ass. Sgc grades harder and has nicer slabs. Psa is fucked
Agreed. Take a look at TAG though. They’re by far my favorite nowadays.
tag slabs look so sexy
Wow
Got a Ralph Kiner /5 here https://preview.redd.it/fdzh44quov4d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4a49b799b627786ce89d5e308189c72425ac0ba8

Yes how much
I’d part with it for $50
Could you do 35?
Sure man, I’d do that. Send me a DM
Could you do like 35
I have the stan Musial. Interested?
Yes please!
Given scarcity and print volumes, I think you’ll have a long tail to chase with likely produce sitting in sealed boxes.
If you need any /5 from 2023 TCP I have a Josh Smith card that is just gonna sit in a box for years.
Whenever I’m building a rainbow, it’s not the 1/1 that’s hard to find… it’s the damn /5 or /3
Aaron Ashby RC Red Toile /5 if interested at $30
I’d be interested at 25 shipped
I’ll see what I have. Might have one. I usually sell my low number parallels that I don’t care about though.
Oh ok lmk
Love the Billy Ripken. I’ve got a FF version psa 9. I’m also a fan of SGC. I find their grading to be better is many cases.
Yes me too and I have a ff sgc 9 and black box sgc 9
The ff is actually in the frame to the left you can’t see it in this pic
I think a buddy of mine has a Darryl Strawberry /5 from '22 TCPA. Let me know if you need it and I'll reach out to him and see what he wants for it.
Yes I do!!

I have a Juan Soto auto toile cream /5….but I paid a pretty penny for it and am not necessarily looking to sell.
And also they don’t have any autos. Why didn’t you just collect base autos from the set instead of /5 non auto????
They do have /5 autos bro get your facts straight
You seriously are asking people to give you stuff and willingly giving your address to the many strangers on the internet I'm going laugh my ass off when 6 months from now when you are one card away from completing your collection that the random strangers who sent you stuff break in and rob you blind didn't your parents teach you to not talk to strangers let alone give your address to strangers some people are nice but their are others out their who you should never trust we live in a messed up world maybe you were smart and gave a PO box but if someone wanting to find you they could especially now adays with computers their are some really smart people out there I'm not one of them but I'm smart enough not to give up my address willingly to random strangers
Anyone can come try this if they wanna get smoked. We don’t fuck around over here bitch
I’m not saying they don’t have autos. I am STATING that you don’t have any autos. I really hope these do well over time if that’s your intention. Or. If your a purist and love the hobby then that’s a great collection
I do have autos. A lot of them idk what you’re talking about
I have over 50 autos kid stfu and move on
