Hey all,
So I had a number of redemptions that were long overdue and I had the option to request replacements for a couple of them, so I did. Lemme know what you think.
The first was a 2012 Triple Threads Saphhire relic auto of Kershaw, Kemp & Ethier, which would likely have been patches and autos. A very nice card to be sure, but Ethier is pretty so-so and Kemp is never gonna sign for Topps it seems, so I asked for a replacement and got this:

A decent replacement, though it's not slabbed like other Tribute cards are, but it is Mike Trout, so it is probably pretty close on sell value.
The second card was a Five Star cut auto booklet of Robin Roberts. A HOFer, and it would have been a 1-of-1, but Roberts autos aren't too tough to acquire, and I had one in my HOF PC already (which has a BV of just $50), so I asked for a replacement and got this:

Admittedly, I was pretty thrilled with this since the card has recently gone up a lot in value and I don't already have one.
When the guy processed my replacements, he asked if there were guys I was interested in and I said since they were high value cards, I'd hope for Trout, Harper or other HOFers, looks like they listened to me! So, lemme know what you think, and thanks for reading!

Trading for cut autos of baseball HOFers I don't have, autos of current and future Cleveland Guardians, and anything else that catches my eye!
