Okay, so I’ve been seeing these Micah Parsons cards popping up everywhere, and the prices are all over the place. I finally decided to dive in and figure out what’s the deal with them. Figured I’d share my little journey, in case anyone else is as confused as I was.
First, I started by just browsing around, you know, seeing what was even out there. I went through a bunch of different shops. Mostly just to get a feel for the different designs and, of course, the prices. It was overwhelming at first!
Different Types Of Cards
Then I realized there are way more types of these cards than I thought. It’s not just one basic card. There are:
- Rookie cards (apparently these are a big deal).
- Autographed cards (some with actual signatures, some with printed ones – big difference!).
- Numbered cards (like, only a certain number were made, so they’re supposedly rarer).
- Cards with pieces of his jersey in them (these are kinda cool, I gotta admit).
- And a whole bunch of other variations I didn’t even understand.
So, I spent a good chunk of time just reading descriptions, trying to figure out what all the lingo meant. “Prizm,” “Select,” “Donruss,” “Optic”… it’s a whole new language. I felt like I was learning a new sport, just by looking at the cards!
The hunt!
After some looking around and finding, I decided on one. I set my budget, then went back to search again with the new budget in mind, it helped a lot.
Finally, I pulled the trigger and bought a couple of cards. One was a relatively cheap rookie card, just to have one. The other was a slightly nicer, numbered card – not super expensive, but a little more special. It felt good to finally make a decision!
It’s been a bit of a learning curve, but I’m starting to get the hang of it. Still not an expert, but at least I don’t feel totally lost anymore. Now I’m just waiting for my cards to arrive! Wish me luck that they’re in good condition!
