Crazy sale, when was the last time a guy's chrome autos hit triple figures before he reached the majors?

Not positive, but I think both were in the Majors before they hit triple figures. Pretty sure Lincecum chrome autos hovered around $30 for most of his rookie season and the ensuing off-season.

To think nobody wanted my Gold Refractor for $325 during spring training til Brett came along, and nobody wanted my Xfractor 9.5 a few weeks ago for $225 either (the only 1 graded gem I might add, something I didn't know at the time :benson: )...

Just like with heyward, we all could have made lots .

Fortunately, I'm on the good side of this Stanton situation. And you still have a few dont ya?

There are only 14 9.5 refs and only a few with 10 autos. 250 Seems low seeing that the base 9.5 10s go for 200

Hell, I'm pretty sure Joba and Lincecum were in the Majors before 2007 Bowman Chrome was released!

You guys are right, Lincecum was up in early 2007, and Joba came up right around when bowman chrome was released.

I guess we have to push it back to either Longo or Upton? No one else prior to them.

I really can't think of anyone else who busted triple digits before being called up to the majors.

Yeah I can't think of anyone either. I really think this might be the first time ever.

Prospecting is shattering all the price records this year with Heyward, Castro, Davis, and now Stanton as a minor leaguer.

You're way off. They have never gone a cent below $60.

Ah. I coulda sworn I just missed a few Refractor Autos during the 07-08 offseason that went in the mid $50s.

Regardless, point still stands about the triple digit thing.
