Card of the Day - 2014 Topps Chrome : Clayton Kershaw Base Black Refractor Parallel ( 50 / 100 )


Best pitcher in baseball and the second priciest ( Puig ) black Dodger parallel has been acquired after a few lost auctions.

Book value for this card is $12 and the few auctions I was in on closed near that price. You know you are having a great year when your sales are close to book. Once again I had to sit on the sidelines till the right auction came around and this was the one. A bunch of nickel and dime bids caused the auction to rise to a little over $5 with a hour remaining. I put my bid in at the last moment and unlike the previous 5 auctions I was not to be denied as I came out on top with a sale of just under $8. Probably could have picked this up a little cheaper in the off season but I want to finish as much as I can when I can if at all possible as long as it's within reason. This in my opinion was within reason.

Another black parallel for the collection and now to nail down that Puig card and be done with the higher priced Dodgers.


50 / 100

  1. I may actually have doubles of that McCutchen that I had on Bob Walk the Plank tonight. Maybe we can work something out.

    Really nice Kershaw by the way!
