Average collectors, young or old aquire these cards through luck. Some do not sell them. The hobby shops near where I live do have legions of kids in there buying packs of cards.

By the time this card hits auction there will be less intrest and there will already be a new chase card out there.

I like this one:



Some random collector has it
