Great video. As a vintage collector primarily, what I see with the sticker autos is what they will be like in 20 years. The stickers will lose adhesiveness and fall off and down in the slab. No one is thinking about this. On card auto will always be best.

Great video! The only part I would disagree with here is using the number of check boxes to roughly value a card. For example, a sticker auto with a manufactured patch and is numbered compared to an on-card auto with a game-used patch would be 3 to 2 checks, but I would value the latter card more.

Great stuff, growing strong, keep it up! My only comment is about placing a dollar amount to the different tiers. Since you can get high-end game worn RPAs from different players and their prices can be vastly different. For example, national treasures RPA of Mason Rudolph vs NT RPA of Patrick Mahomes. The quality of the gimmicks and cards for both are high tier. The price isn't what I would use to classify low/mid/high tier for these gimmicks. Just my opinion. Great work

Good overview! A gimmick that you could touch on in the future is short-prints (e.g., SP, SSP, and USP/SSSP). I personally think these are the most FUN to collect because they often use a cool or funny photo (We can't forget that hobbies are meant to be fun! :P) Some SPs are very hard to find - like 1 in 10K packs. They're likely not paralleled nor #'d, but could be worth more than an auto. However, you might also fall into the 1:1 trap that you mentioned.

To: Our curator & fellow fans~ Hope everyone has a Blessed Thanksgiving & Holidays!!!! Have fun, breath deep and enjoy it!! Remember and appreciate what’s truly so very important in life!!! Hope everyone has a truly amazing week! Ultimately I think many will get caught in different types of hype, at one thing or another. Always diversify any and all investments, or in this case collections.. if one thing tanks your okay still.. I really worry for the people who bought in high and have a whole collection they bought at peak. paying thousands a piece for prizm silvers of last couple of years can get quite dangerous IMO... I just hope guys/gals doing that haven’t risked everything by gambling with theirs & families financial present/future. Uncertain times, I always would suggest restraint and only put in what your willing to lose, rather on as you say gimmick cards or whatever else. Remember guys, it’s a hobby, have fun, but still always be smart/safe too!!!!

For soccer cards in the time of Covid years 2020 and 2021, so far there are almost no on-card autographs in all releases of Topps and Panini ( very rare exception are those lost, misplaced, and delivered very few Topps Gio Reyna on card autos). Sticker autos would be king by default because there are no other kind of autos to outrank these. The jersey patch has a crazy and confused disclaimer saying it is not from any game or event, and does not state if it is game used or player worn but then there is a statement claiming authentic memorabilia whatever that means. That's why it's seems to be crazy and confused disclaimer. My question is would a rookie card with a sticker auto and with that not from any event, not game used or not player worn patch with the crazy and confused disclaimer still be considered an legit "RPA"? When all soccer card "RPAs" are like that from the time of Covid, would it be fair and correct to say these recent soccer cards as "RPAs" would enjoy same highest rank as those awesome RPAs that are game used and on-card autos from the past or the future? Thank you.

Hiya Daniel. I'm not a fan of "manufactured" rarity. As said, the purists went nuts over the destruction of GU jerseys. I believe the "first" jersey/patch cards came in the ⚾️ 1997 Upper Deck set; a date that will live in infamy? IMO, Topps has "over-produced" patch cards whether GU/notGU and may be found - overall - in bargain bins at local shows. The RPA, IMO, is a departure from that since auto'ed RCs are in high demand of "hot" players or tomorrow's GOAT? One "statistical" way to tier patch/1of1/serial numbered cards? Just a thought? Check a Beckett - not for specific value - but for their pricing of relic or auto cards to see where the demand lies at any given month. As you've said - the collector or seller "values" their items not comps or price guides for the most part. Again. Great discussion and guidance - especially for newcomers or those returning to the hobby. Ya know? I wish I had a mentor 30 yrs ago to guide me thru the shark infested waters. 👍

Solid information but I think the use of the term "gimmick" is not necessarily correct, since the term tends to imply a trick or non-substantive method to gain attention. Autographs for example, are not really a "gimmick" they have been a staple of collecting (not just cards) forever.
