He lives in California so if I were in his situation I would do just that.Get it slabbed... auction it... take the money! For an 11 year old, though, what Pitt is offering would be hard to pass up!! Good for him!
I must say, Topps really did a good job on that card!Get it slabbed... auction it... take the money! For an 11 year old, though, what Pitt is offering would be hard to pass up!! Good for him!
I think the tickets are for 30 years, and you could probably sell them for more than what the card is worth.That is awesome!! Definitely have to take the cash. 20 years of Pirates tickets becomes less appealing when you know Skenes is gone in less than 5.
Would be great publicity for the Buccos if they fly the kid in for a weekend and setup a suite with Livvy for a Skenes start anyway - regardless of what he does with the card. And I would load him up with Bucco swag to go back to LA with as well, make the kid and his family WANT to be fans!!
Yeah, You really think Skenes Will be gone in5 and he will ditch the Pirates?That is awesome!! Definitely have to take the cash. 20 years of Pirates tickets becomes less appealing when you know Skenes is gone in less than 5.

If he can sell them. It would also be a good idea to hold onto for a few years and see if it gains any value.I think the tickets are for 30 years, and you could probably sell them for more than what the card is worth.
AgreedLet’s be honest. At that product’s price point and popularity there is a 95% chance dad or someone else bought them and the kid helped open. My kids have helped me open hundreds of great cards but i wouldn’t go national saying they pulled it.
Regardless, call PSA and demand a free slabbing. Then call the major auction consignors and demand a free listing with no fees. Take the money and do whatever you want.
Taxes. The guy probably is looking ahead to a possible tax bill down the road. Dont know if it matters much but it could be the same as winning a large sum of money or a sweepstakes tax wise.Let’s be honest.
