I bought the Ohtani RC Auto Bowman's Best featured in your video. I bought it in Japan at my LCS for $300 in back in 2020. It was ungraded and at the time I thought wow I just dropped $300 on an Ohtani ! Was that a good move? I asked myself, lol. Well PSA didn't exist in Japan yet and I wasn't going to risk sending the card to the US with Corona and everything with the backups and delays and extreme costs for grading etc. Fast forward about 3 years and finally PSA Tokyo opened up and I sent the super card for grading and it came back a beautiful 10 Gem. I got surcharged for it but it was the happiest surcharge I ever paid probably in my life. Enjoyed the video thanks...
Massive bummer about the 9. I agree with you, if it's just a minor dimple, it shouldn't be more than a half point deduction. For PSA, that should still round to a 10. If it was in the cheaper submission range, I'd say re-sub but might not be worth it at the higher level. It's still an awesome historic card!
Great video Stryker and dang you your bringing my nostalgic side out with those comics and looking for a good Wolverine number 1 from 1982 and goin back to collecting the whole run now as a nerd who went to SD con your triggering me to go back and collect my favorite series lol
I remeber when ASM 252 came out at my Lcs and my allowance at the time was $2.00. I knew by looking at the cover this was going to be big one!!! I bought 3 hobby direct covers for $1.80... I wanted more though but money was hard to come by in those days. Luckily, the next week he got more in with the newstand cover and I bought 3 more!!! Looking back on it I would have bought even more if I had the money. You would like my collection, Stryker as I have been collecting since 1978 and still have my first comic I ever bought!!! Ty for sharing....
I had pulled a dual auto of Ohtani and Trout out of Archives a few years ago. I’m convinced Ohtani hulks out before he signs because he dug grooves into the card when he signed.
Congrats on completing the Black suit run. That's quite an achievement! I'm working on a close to full Amazing Spider-man run. Not the big boys but all I can get.
Big fan of comic also, not sure if you know but Macfarlane recently released a Spider-Man figurine based on the #300 comic book along with a few others. Should check it out for the collection.
Is that one of those so called "flow lines" in the upper right corner of the card? If so, I'd send it back just because of that! I would never want a card that big in a case that has an imperfection on the front of the card.
Man...I'm having a hard time dropping 1.5k on a Hank Aaron SGC 1 1954 Topps Rookie and Stryker casually drops 10k of PC collectibles in a single video lol
Are we all going to abandon PSA yet? I don’t know if I can, for the record, but they have been the most inconsistent grader. I seriously trust SGC to give me the correct grade, but the resale isn’t there. Believe me, I experimented. Haha
Still a fantastic looking Ohtani and amazing new comics! Love the video, Stryker!!! Keep up the amazing work!
I've got dimples on my thighs and I am graded accordingly as well.
Love it. I know very few people that Christmas shop for themselves! 😂
Love the Frogger ad, loved that game.
My comic addiction is Batman. Glad to see it is not just be on the cards and comic. Love the pick ups
That's a straaaaange one OHYANI. lovely to see my love of comics on your channel
Great vid epic comics Ohtani looks great I think I see the spot but so minor hard to say

Of course they gave it a ten.

Not a comic collector but I love the cover artwork on the older stuff

Yes SIR! 👏👏👏…I sent in a 1990 Fleer Jordan 8 and I thought was pretty darn good. Resent and got 10.
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing
I have a 1993 "superman dies" 2nd edition,still in gem condition,still in its plastic bag it was bought in
Awesome card and comics.
Love the books 🍀✌️
Big fan of comic also, not sure if you know but Macfarlane recently released a Spider-Man figurine based on the #300 comic book along with a few others. Should check it out for the collection.
Spiderman #129 is my favorite comic of all time. Own 8 copies and counting. I always grab them in any condition

Pop control
Man I might actually still have that 1st appearance of carnage makes me want to go home and check mine still got them from when I was a kid
I’d send her back in
I would re send that in because I don’t see it from the video. Grader was very picky
ASM 300! Nice!
Bro aged 20 years since he pulled the ohtani
9 on the card. But a 10 on the beard
The amount of PSA 10s I've gotten with a dimple AND roller marks lol.... you should crack and resend at a lower level guarantee you get a 10
Hey Stryker did you happen to be at the lions billls game cause I swear I saw you there😂
I was indeed! You should have said hi!!
I should’ve
Send it back in for sure but if there's a dimple then a 9 is appropriate.
I saw it, below the baseball.
Did you get the auto graded?
A baby dimple that you had to hold to your eyeball 😂 but at least it wasn't a 8 🤷🏻
It's because it's a big card. That's what they do
id crack it. that is crazy.
Man...I'm having a hard time dropping 1.5k on a Hank Aaron SGC 1 1954 Topps Rookie and Stryker casually drops 10k of PC collectibles in a single video lol
That's truly a travesty. They must've been examining that card with an electron microscope.
Sorry Strykes i cant wrap my head around sealing a vtg comic book. Even if you read it 20×. Its like... unaliving it 😞
I smell a resub!
Dam bro!!
🔥
I'm just wondering if you know what a 1st print #300 is worth? Sorry it's not baseball related. My dad paid $70 right after it came out.
Cheking out youre videos like them very much old collector whit bad luck
Thanks to Superman for his PSA 9 grading. What the heck?
Basically thats a $10,000 dimple
That auto is phenomenal.
That’s just pop control on there part definitely some bs should have been a 10

I 100% agree with everything you said!
I would re-sub!
I would have a card doctor look at it and fix if possible and resubmit it!!!!
Still a nasty nasty card
That’s bull crap to drops grade
Nah Stryker they did you wrong on that Shohei. Crack it and resend it brother That's GEM MINT 10 for sure!!!
I'm sorry brother! PSA screwed you on that Shohei.
Trey Cabbage signed with an NPB team earlier. Guess all your collecting won't pay off Stryker 🥲
