Live Collection

I feel like SDS cost themselves some money. So I get it you’ll have people who will buy stubs day 1. Or like me I’d wait until the first stub sale and finish my collection. This year cards are pretty cheap. I’m missing 6 cards 2.5 weeks in to complete the collection. Last year first stub sale I was missing 15. With so many 99’s honestly unless you’re a streamer or just a huge Derek Jeter fan it’s pointless to spend money.

It is really hard to know how these decisions are impacting their profits, but I could see it being the complete opposite. LS is not as expensive, but there are significantly more cards in the market at this point in the year. Many of them are also more expensive than they normally are at this point.

Sold everything I could to get Ohtani and Trout after a super lucky DeGrom pull. Getting a solid lefty closer for the pen (AL West collection) makes running the Trevor Hoffman Captain card at tier 3 a possibility.
The rest of the live series collection cards are pretty take it or leave it compared to the NS series 1 TA cards and I have no doubt that the series 2 cards will continue that trend…to be followed by series 3…but filling an actual role is priceless for my long term enjoyment.

Potentially right..
Or hoping we finish collections first, then we spend real money to get the 99s in the Duo Packs every week

I did the NL and it was a bit of a grind but not too bad since I just grinded through RTTS to sell off Diamond equipment. Got Jazz last night on the Set collection and I’m going to just collect cards in TA until I get Trae/Chipper once more Topps Now cards come out.
