RE: The Acunas are jumping again
I had one that's a PSA 9 (along with a PSA 9 Soto) that I tried to move for a couple of weeks on Blowout. Was asking $40, and got no takers. I did have an offer of $40 for both, but I passed on that stupid offer. Glad I didn't move them now.

As a "collector" I really despise large increases...keep values low so cards can be acquired. You know, buy low and keep high.
Crazy! See just regular base ungraded are selling for about $65 Canadian on eBay now
I collect Allen & Ginter, Aroldis Chapman, Yoan Moncada, and Cuban Players!
There has been some recent discussion on these boards regarding the prices of certain cards that just keeps skyrocketing. I'll be shocked if there is any baseball this year, so I am not understanding not only the demand for this card, but the sharply higher demand.

In the meantime Mookie Betts and Bryce Harper's cards take a nose dive. What the heck? I guess Acuna is having a better season.

During a typical off-season many card values plummeted in the past, so this is an extension of that phenomenon? While pre-season speculation might be driving Acunas values up? I dunno, just trying to make sense of it all.
