Have you seen the latest cool or interesting items on eBay? If not, you just might see some of those here every week as we're launching a weekly version of our eBay Buzz pieces that pop up from time to time. We’ll spotlight some items that have a story or just wow us with how much interest it might have — and we’re not just talking baseball cards, either.

ONE SUPER PULL
The Item: Ronald Acuña Jr. 2018 Topps Chrome Superfractor autograph
The Price: $3,050 after 19 bids (more than five days remaining)
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This is one of the biggest cards possible in this year's Rookie Card parallel lineup without the name Ohtani attached -- and even with that this should be one of the bigs -- and this one is on the auction block as an auction via an eBay seller with a heavy buyer list and a huge presence. How big will this card go? We'll find out in a few days -- and it was big enough my plans to not have an eBay Buzz this week hit the bench in favor of this Friday-night edition.

A 1/1 (FOR NOW) BARGAIN?
The Item: Juan Soto 2018 Topps Heritage High Number RC (BGS 10)
The Price: $300 Buy-It-Now (or best offer)
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This is billed as being the only BGS 10 copy of this card on the pop report right now and it's just a single .5 away from being a perfect BGS Black card. Could there be others out there to equal and top this? Maybe, but the centering on the key cards in this release have been pretty iffy so any 10s should get a look, especially on Acuña. This is a card that will inevitably have strong demand down the line as long as Soto continues to perform.

PICK UP YOUR JAW
The Item: 2017 Topps Luminaries The Greatest Booklet (1/1)
The Price: $25,000 Buy-It-Now (or best offer)
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: Click the image above for a closer look and then the auction link for an even better view of this massive 30-autograph card that includes Albert Pujols, Bryce Harper, Chipper Jones, Clayton Kershaw, Derek Jeter, Ernie Banks, Hank Aaron, Ichiro Suzuki, Ken Griffey Jr., Kris Bryant, Nolan Ryan, Sandy Koufax and several other legendary names. This wasn't the only crazy book in Luminaries boxes last year but it might be the craziest.

A FORCEFUL TEST RUN
The Item: Darth Vader 1977 Topps Star Wars separation proof set
The Price: $32 after 10 bids (four days remaining)
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: The Topps Vault regularly unleashes 1/1 proof cards for all of its new releases but this one dips back more than 40 years for an ink test of some of the earliest Star Wars cardboard, which it's still pumping out today. There are a few sets of these active right now and this one is arguably one of the more memorable of them as "The deadly drop of Darth Vader" is an iconic moment. How much will these go for? I'm not sure, but there are a ton of fans for this franchise so it could end up being a very forceful finish.

EIGHT IS GREAT IN THIS CASE ...
The Item: Michael Jordan 1997-98 Upper Deck Game Jerseys Autographs (/23; BGS 8/10)
The Price: $65,100 after 63 bids (with six days remaining)
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This gem is a shocker on its own but the fact that it's as pricey as it is at its condition (something that should matter but there are so few others that it doesn't) is shocking, too. How high will it go? That's all I have to say ... and we'll find out next week.
