Where are you at in your 2014 Tek rainbow? Still missing just a couple 1/1s? I guess if any of them were redemption and with the redemption date expiring... then what? LOL

Luckly none were redemption so I'm down to the last 1/1. Just missing the black/white auto proof. Might be some unique buybacks still out there but not holding my breath for those :)

If it's not apparent, yes that is the 1/1 charcoal auto.

I saw that! Great deal, man!

Also, it's interesting that a lot of the super rare stuff from this release has been surfacing five years later. Like people are ready to let it go. But some of the rare stuff is still impossible find.

Within the past year I passed on a Yadier Molina Charcoal Galactic (non-auto) at $145 thinking it would get zero bids and get relisted. Someone bid and it's hurt me ever since.

My Yelich Galactic (non-auto) is looking pretty good, though! Dang, no photo...

5 YEARS for this blue #/5 parallel to show up, 5 YEARS. 2 or 3 of the blue autographs have been for sale and I got the first one, but this unnumbered version has never been for sale.

I lost out on this card back in 2014 but it came up for sale again recently via China. So I have the 3 card auto rainbow now. Non-auto Charcoal has never shown up.

Very nice sir. The charcoal 1/1 auto is one of those Alomars I spend time drooling after on a regular basis.

For some reason I'm just now seeing this or realizing what you posted. YES! That Asia seller had some DOPE cards. I was in on this to a point - ya beat me out. But I did get the Rickey and I somehow got the Pudge for like $80.

Guys - this has been a great thread and there's also some fun Tek activity over on the Tek collectors facebook page. It's called 1998-2000 Topps Tek + 2014-Present Topps High Tek Baseball!! I'll try to link it here, but if that doesn't work for whatever reason, just search for the group and you'll find us!
