May 25 Market Report: Ichiro Topps Project 2020 by Ben Baller

Have you been paying attention to eBay sales of Topps Project 2020 this weekend?! Almost any card from the set is up BIG TIME from Thursday. I could make a market report on just about any of them, and they’d all be up three times the value or more. Since I had to narrow it down, this market report is on the first three @benballer cards to be “in-hand:” Ichiro #1 (PR: 1,334), Frank Thomas #23 (PR: 2,836), and Mike Trout #51 (PR: 34,950).

Currently, the Ichiro is the highest valued card in the set at $3,750 (based on the average of two sales when the pair was created). Since Thursday, this card increased 333% in value. As for the Frank Thomas and Mike Trout, they saw outstanding gains as well. Frank Thomas increased the most (ROI), moving from $119 to $600 – a 404% gain. The Mike Trout is currently the highest PR card in the whole set, but that hasn’t stopped it from almost 4x’ing in value, going from $45 to $160 (256% gain). @benballer has over 1M followers on Instagram, and his popularity is showing in the print runs.
