Card of the Day - 2016 Topps Chrome : Corey Seager Base Autograph Blue Refractor Parallel (92/150) BGS Graded Gem Mint and Quarterly eBay Bucks Purchase


As stated with yesterday's "purchase" one eBay it helped finishing financing the card I am showing off today. Yup, it's that time of the year once again aka eBay eBucks redemption time and this quarter I had my mind set on one card and one card only so much that I locked it in with the seller in the beginning of September,

I knew I was going to have a huge total for my eBucks this period as eBay ran a special this time around where you earned for selling as well which was a first. Well since I am intent on trying for an autograph rainbow of Corey Seager from this year's Topps Chrome set I decided I wanted to pick up a blue copy at zero cost to me and that is what I did.


I have locked in cards before but at most is has been 2 weeks prior to the eBucks being available but this time around it was a tad over 3 weeks and the seller was antsy and didn't really want to do but I basically stated do you want a sure sale or one that just stays on eBay for weeks and sweat it out? Well he sided with me and in the end it was a win win for the both of us as the price we agreed to was higher than another copy that popped up and sold a week for about $35 more prior to me finishing this transaction. So in the end he netted an extra $35 but on the other hand it wasn't out of my pocket as this card was free and clear for me. Now to work on the rest of the rainbow.

  1. Love this one! I only have base for now, but I may try picking up a blue in the future. Great addition to the Seager PC.

    1. I am still looking for the base and gold (dont think Ill ever see the red on any kind of deal). There are good deals for the blue on eBay right now. Look forward to seeing what you got with your eBucks
