Default 1/1

It is a 1/1, but with the ways cards are produced these days, there are so many 1/1s for every player, but this is likely the most important card of by far the most hyped player right now. Would have been so surreal to open that pack!

Hmmmm...$90,000 on a card of a guy who could tweak his back in a game tomorrow and never be the same again. Even if the guy goes on to a hall of fame career the card will never sell again for $90,000.

Reminds me a lot of the Strasburg cards before he had his first major league start.

Default Bryant

That card is like the old maid. You want to get rid of it because it will likely never be as "valuable" as it is now and it will surely drag you down in the end! I hope he has a great career, but seriously, think of what else you could buy with 90k... Nice car, vacation, and still plenty left over for some great prewar cards!

The person who eventually purchases that Kris Bryant card is not concerned about it being an investment.....

They simply want to own (for bragging rights) that "1/1" card.

More power to him.

The people saying that it will never sell again for 90k are spot on. I don't believe there are any hof rookie cards from the modern era that sell for anywhere near that. I thought the point of those was to get them cheap before they guy blows up, not spend 90k in hopes that one day it will be worth 3k!

An aside, saw him in spring training and he does look awesome. Really dialed in, very fast bat and incredible strength.

Default the problem

with this "rarity" is it is intentionally made rare.....the vintage "become" rare

maybe 70 x rarer than wagz, but it was intentionally done so....

No offense but I would not want you as my financial advisor!

Peace, Mike

P.S. Jeff P: Well said, my thoughts exactly.
