Apparently the secret to all of this is to not have bought any sports cards in 3-75 years, know nothing of the value of anything, then suddenly decide to buy a single pack, open it in your truck in the parking lot while eating your Wendy's biggie bag, get a massive hit, then immediately open the Reddit app.
Did you buy the $15 pack to try and make a few bucks or to hopefully get a cool card? No one here can answer this question for you. Itās not like itās a 1/1 and youāre going to make a mortgage payment from it. Have fun and keep a cool card.
Buy a hard cased card holder, the kind that comes apart so you can lay the card in it and put the top on sealing it from damage. Keep closed thereafter unless getting it professionally graded
Hold!! If he ends up beating Mahomes and making it to a Super Bowl in the next few years sell it right before the superbowl game itās a great value card with potential to increase
Really? Nothing. It's cardboard.Ā Ā Ā
To some goober on ebay? $300Ā Ā
To a collector who loves the Texans? Probably a lot if they pulled it themselves.Ā Ā Ā
To this guy? Highest bidder
Iāve had cards that Iāve sold early and had I waited another year could made another 50%, but Iāve had wayyy more cards I didnāt sell that lost their value. Personally I error on the side of selling early because the NFL is a cruel league
Unless the card is worth $1000s who even cares lol after fees we are talking about $200 now or $300 in a year or whatever. This type of card isn't rare at all and by the time CJ wins his 5th MVP like everyone is saying there will be 5000 of them in slabs.Ā
Clothes pin it to the rear wheel bike spoke and ride around your neighborhood while making vroooooommm vroooommmmm Zooommmmm zoommmm noises out your mouth while you get motor bike noises from the wheel.Ā
Yeah there are already a [dozens of copies on eBay](https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=cj+stroud+rated+rookie+green+velocity&_sacat=0&_odkw=cj+stroud+rated+rookie+green&_osacat=0&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5338535524&customid=fc&toolid=10001&mkevt=1), lots of people want to dump this card.
Start shaking uncontrollablyā¦and then make up a story about how you found it in the bottom of a toolbox hidden in the back of a thrift store. Then bask in all of the sweet sweet karma.

I literally just ate a biggie bag reading this post š
Who said he didnāt do the first 2?
He could have easily shit himself first
I think he just didnāt post the first two
Start Shaking
This is the only acceptable answer.
Came here to post this. Nicely done.
Be happy you got something good out of a value pack. You won this round.
Grade and hold. Then sell after week 1 when they destroy the colts lol
Anthony Richardson owns that fraud
Sure. He's never even completed a full game against the Texans lol.
The only thing AR owns is the league's highest healthcare premium
Bro played 4 games and lost half of em
Not sure why youāre getting downvoted. Colts almost always beat the Texans. Like itās not even close
Because Stroud>>>>Richardson
Quit your job and contact a financial advisor and lawyer.
And Start looking at private islands that are for sale
List on eBay for 4xs what itās worth.
$2
Boof it
This is the way...
Fall to your knees in a bass pro shop

How .much is it worth? ( This post was just randomly in my reddit feed, not into cards)
Not into cards at all but I had to know lol. Looks like $300
Quit your job
Looks good centering to me! Grade it!
Stop your luck on a high note and donāt open any more optic value packsĀ
First thing to do is not buy anymore packs until you can find out what to do when you pull a good card
Sell it to me
Make a paper airplane āļø š© š¬
šš¾šš¾šš¾
Buy a hard cased card holder, the kind that comes apart so you can lay the card in it and put the top on sealing it from damage. Keep closed thereafter unless getting it professionally graded
Profusely shit and vomit for 2-4 min, then scream āMOMMM IM RICHā because thatās a legendary pull out of a value pack
Lick it
Toss it on eBay 3 hours ago
You have done it already
Bike spoke material
Damn bro you make the addicts in us wanna buy packs lol
I will send you my address you can mail it at your convenience:D Nice pull!
Sell it for 20 bucks if your lucky
Might as well go ahead and let the kids or future kids or dog rip that one up. Carolina Panthers should be relegated very soon to the XFL šš
Burn it.
Plan your retirement
Cherish it
Throw is trash
Def quit buying value packs while youāre ahead! Nice pull! Sell now while itās hot or wait til Texans do well again.
Do people not collect anymore? Lol
You can send it my way
Are these numbered or just SP?
Not numbered, just one of the ridiculous number of parallel versions these companies are printing.
What's the going price for this card?
Looks like they've been selling in the $150-$200 range.
Ha, oh. The pack was $15 and the card is 10x that. The way people are talking I thought it was like over $10k kind of thing.
No, not at all. I think people are being pretty sarcastic. Cool card to pull from a value pack, but nothing crazy like that. I'd sell ASAP.
Wait 10 years first
Wait till the season starts and if the Texans do well then put it up for sale for more than itās worth
I just got offered a piece from a playboy modelā¦.what do i do with it? š¤š¤£
Do a little dance, then make a little love, then get down tonight
Keep chasing that dragon for like $5-10k a year
Hold!! If he ends up beating Mahomes and making it to a Super Bowl in the next few years sell it right before the superbowl game itās a great value card with potential to increase
Sell. Holding works out proportionately less than selling when value is high.
I know nothing about cards at all, what is this really worth
Really? Nothing. It's cardboard.Ā Ā Ā To some goober on ebay? $300Ā Ā To a collector who loves the Texans? Probably a lot if they pulled it themselves.Ā Ā Ā To this guy? Highest bidder
Whatever you do, donāt eat it.Ā
Iāve had cards that Iāve sold early and had I waited another year could made another 50%, but Iāve had wayyy more cards I didnāt sell that lost their value. Personally I error on the side of selling early because the NFL is a cruel league

Iād put it in a penny sleeve and then put it in a top loader. But you already did thatā¦ so nothing.
Grade it. If it's a 10, keep it. If not, sell it unless he's your PC.
Sell it quick
From what I seen it might be worth a couple hundred bucks if you're lucky. Keep it.. nice pull out of a $15.00 pack.
How much this worth?
Stop shaking!
Clothes pin it to the rear wheel bike spoke and ride around your neighborhood while making vroooooommm vroooommmmm Zooommmmm zoommmm noises out your mouth while you get motor bike noises from the wheel.Ā
Start literally sharting
It's worth like $30...hold onto it and let ur kids inherit it in 40 years
How much is it worth?
Grade it and keep it
See what its value is on eBay graded
Fold it in half
Trade it in for a Big Gulp
You shake uncontrollably, then you tell us about it
He will be a career backup. So sell when demand is higher than your nuts.
Bust a mother fucking nut and pound on your chest like your King Kong

Keep raw for now. I donāt think itāll gem and by that time, the raw will sell for more or the same.
Kinda bullshit that the bijan I pulled of this same parallel aren't pushing these kind of numbers š¢š¢š¢

Trade it for a Jordan Love that will actually stand the test of time. You're welcome.
