Description: Winning buyer will receive the rookie card described in the item title, a rookie card of Toronto Blue Jays future superstar 3rd baseman, VLADIMIR GUERRERO JR.. This is Guerrero's Bowman Prospects rookie from the 2017 Bowman set and is the hard to find Purple parallel insert card limited to only 250 numbered rookies!! The paper rookies are much harder to grade well than the chrome rookies, which is why to date, only TWO of these Purple prospect rookies have been graded with a BGS 9.5 GEM MINT grade!! Guerrero, at the ripe age of 19, was named Minor League Player of the year for 2018 by Baseball America. He is the top hitting prospect at the minor league level right now and looks to break through with the major league club sometime in 2019. Vlad Jr.'s biggest skill is his hitting tools, as demonstrated by his .381 batting average in 2018 at AA and AAA minor league level. For a good portion of 2018, Vlad Jr. was hovering at the magical .400 batting average mark. Lock in on Vlad's rookie cards now before he is called up from the minors and blows up in the major leagues. Note that the picture is the EXACT scan of the card winning buyer will be receiving!! This card is graded BGS 9.5 (which is GEM MINT!!), by Beckett Grading Services, the top grading service in the sports card industry. Why buy a graded card by either Beckett Grading Services (BGS/BCCG) or PSA? Because Beckett and PSA are the top two 3rd party grading companies in the collectibles industry. Why buy a graded card in the first place? Because if you want your card to appreciate in value, the condition of the card is very important. Having the card sealed in the case & it's condition graded allows you to easily sell/trade the card online. CLICK HERE to get a look at our EBAY store which contains many other awesome sports cards! Shipping is $3.75 for the first card and $0.75 for each additional card. A portion of the proceeds from this listing will be sent to the world relief organization World Help. I am partnering with them to build a deep bore water well in a 3rd world country. This water well will provide clean/usable water for a community of up to 1000 people! Thanks in advance for your contribution towards this cause. Update 8/16/20 - as eBay has required me to switch over to "managed payment", I will need to adjust each of my listings one at a time for the charitable contribution part. Though my listings now do not say so specifically about the charity contribution, I will continue to deduct 10% off every sale and send those proceeds to the clean water organization that helps build water wells in parts of the world that needs clean water for daily living. So rest assure that 10% of your purchase is going to that cause. Fundraising recently completed funds needed for water well #3 so thank you to everyone that has bought over the last 4 years...you played a part in that! Going forward, we will begin fundraising for water well #4 and possibly also contributing to the daily operating costs of running a 30 child orphanage that I have known over the past 10 years in Mexico.
