Peace, Mike

No, it's like buying a 1/1 Pinto for the same price as a Ferrari and reasoning that it should be worth as much because it's unique. It's still a crappy Pinto under the hood. 1/1 Michael Jordans don't sell for 90k. This is a 15-25k card that will most likely be worth 10-20% of that in a few years. What do you think that Strasburg Superfractor is worth?

You should go back to school and quit worrying about 1 of 1s. They are obviously making you crazy. In you previous post you say and I quote "It's the same card as hundreds more with a little bit different foil." and then you start talking 15-25K for a card that you just said is the same as hundreds of others with a little different foil?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
You also need to re-enroll in Debating 101 and Econ 101.

PS This is my LAST post on this subject.

For the money this card would sell for, you are better off putting that money in a proven Hofer Ruth, Gehrig, Cobb, Wagner, etc or a 52 Topps Mantle. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. This hobby's recent history is filled with Kris Bryants, players who are hyped before their rookie season and fail to live up to the hype. Not a single one has lived up to the hype in the last 20+ years.

Pretty card for sure, but just not my cup of tea.

I enjoy collecting modern cards just about as much as I do pre-war; I just don't spend near the same amount of money on them. But you really don't have to. I've found some very active sites where people trade modern cards. So I buy a box now and then, keep the ones I want, and trade as many of the others as I can. Just like here I've made some friends along the way. Believe it or not there are a lot of modern collectors who couldn't care less about long term value. They collect there favorite team/player/set or whatever just for fun and because they love baseball and cards.
