Back in late 2011 / early 2012 I was buying up the "Holiday" boxes that had 2011 Topps Update and a single pack of 2011 Bowman Chrome, as well as a bonus Bryce Harper card and Million Card giveaway code. Well, after buying enough boxes to put together multiple sets I decided to see how close I was to putting together the Diamond parallel set. The biggest hurdle was that I needed the Trout. Luckily back then it wasn't anywhere near as valuable as it is now. I don't remember exactly what I traded for it, but I know it was only $25-$40 in value at the time, so it couldn't have been anything crazy. I finally finished the set, and am glad I did back then cause that card is now much much more valuable.
Collecting John Stockton, Karl Malone, Ivan Rodriguez, Gary Carter & UF player rookie year cards. Plus Jedd Gyorko rookie and prospect cards.
