Fernando Mendoza's 2025 Bowman U Chrome base in PSA 10 has a $150.00 USD median, flat on the month before. Sports Collectors Digest reported his rookies rising on August 31, citing a $6,766 USD Black Refractor auto that closed two weeks earlier.
Two more Black Refractor autos are listed on eBay, a BGS 9.5 and a PSA 10. We called a hold on September 2, the day the Raiders named Kirk Cousins their Week 1 starter.
We were watching a 1st Chrome auto at $900 USD and a Sapphire auto at $3,950 USD, both PSA 10. The 1st Chrome ask fell to $788 USD and the Sapphire has not moved; PSA has graded four Sapphires a 10.
