2011 topps update trout rookie. How much higher?
How much higher can this card go? I bought a psa 10 2 yrs ago for $120. Sold it in September for $600. Its now selling for $900!. Wth. My thoughts were it peaked at $600. Its a base card with a high pop so i don't understand why so high

Trout is experiencing a surge since signing his record deal. If you think the price of his cards is nuts check this out.

adam lol ...omg

This pricing is incredible. I stashed away a few raw copies back in 2011 and hadn’t thought about them until I saw this recent price spike.

I don't post often but this topic resonates with me as the price of the Trout rookie card, in my opinion, is out of control. Trout is no doubt well on his way to the HoF if he keeps putting up the numbers he normally does but the card prices just seems premature and little like hysteria to me. It reminds me of when Jeremy Lin got big and his rookie cards became astronomically high. One sold for $22K at the peak and recent sales of the same card are now around $1K. Not sure if the Trout cards will subside at some point (my gut tells me "yes") but I would much rather spend that money on high grade card of an already inducted HoF rookie from the 60s or 70s, like a Schmidt for example, as they are harder to get in higher grades and the remaining population is much smaller.

Not a short print, millions made... serious hype... one serious injury or bad year and prices will settle down IMHO....

The 93 SP Jeter hasn't come down. I also think it's pretty apples to oranges to compare Mike Trout, already one of the greatest players of all time, with Jeremy Lin. Not to mention that Mike Trout has 2 MVP awards. He's not exactly a flash in the pan or flavor of the moment. |

I saw this first in basketball when the Steph Curry rookie went from $8 to $250 a couple of years ago. I would expect the price of his cards will follow the path of his career. I remember times when you couldn’t touch a Griffey, Pujols or McGwire Rookie. Over time, as their careers faded in their 30s so did the prices. If Trouts career settles in a few years his prices will fall. If he continues a GOAT pace his cards are going to be out of sight.

I'm typically a vintage guy (T206), but have a few "key" modern rookies...2011 Topps Update Trout, 2012 Archives Harper, and a stack of Jeter SP's. All of which have been crushing it. Just wish I bought more!
I also think there's a big upswing this past month due to the big contracts and opening of the Baseball season. |

Would a PSA 1 become the most desirable grade? Talk about rarity.

And I had to go look at the checklist... https://www.psacard.com/psasetregist...mposition/1512 Many names I'd agree with, although I wonder what happens when some of the questionable names get removed from the registry (does that even happen?). Guys like Manny Ramirez (can't see him in HOF due to PEDs), Sammy Sosa (similar to Manny), Dale Murphy (I can't remember the last time I read a story arguing for his inclusion, seem to have no steam)... |
People do drop off the future hall of famers list. I'm pretty sure Joe Mauer was on it. Carlos Beltran still is, but probably can get taken off. If you're working the set, you can request they remove people that don't have realistic chances to get elected/selected. I think they will then poll the rest of the people in the set before it gets pulled, if the people working the set agree with you.

I know there was a thread regarding Mauer’s candidacy elsewhere, but in the context of this PSA list, he would stand better chances than a number of players currently on it, IMO. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Actually it looks like Palmeiro has been booted off of it, so there you have it.

To oranges to compare a difficult card to get in high grade the sp jeter to a card relatively easy to get in high grade the trout. Honestly makes no sense at all. Better comparison would have been a topps jeter rookie which doesn’t sell for a ton of money. |
Glyn, I agree with your perspective. I will add however, I think a comparison/parallel can be drawn between those two cards, that they each have become the card to get for those players; their most popular/iconic cards.

There really isn’t another baseball card for comparison. You have to go to other sports. In basketball you can compare to Jordan, Lebron, Curry or Durant. In hockey, McDavid or Crosby. In football Brady.
