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.

--

AN EXAMPLE OF SIMPLE EXCELLENCE
The Item: Kyler Murray 2019 Donruss Optic Silver Holo autograph (/99)
The Price: $399.99 Buy-It-Now 
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This isn't the priciest card out there from this new release and it's not the cheapest one, either, but it's an example of the solid stuff that can be found and will be in demand in the immediate future as well as the coming years as the standard stuff from a few brands and their key hits are seemingly in more demand than ever. Shorter translation: Optic rookie autos are popular and Murray had a promising rookie season. The design here is a super-simple one -- almost on the too-simple side -- and yet it works as it's all about a photo and the color of the parallel versions if you happen to find them. Murray is one of a few guys you should look for here -- and there are some solid veteran autos to be found, too.

What's Buzzing Today: Derrick Henry is a freak, Drake's Rookie Card reaction, big pulls from around the collecting world and "What happens with Patrick Mahomes prices when Houston wins?"

Continue reading →

The headline says it all here, though I'll admit that this one is firmly written tongue in cheek because I'm not 100 percent sure if that is the answer.

But what I do know is that entertainer and Toronto Raptors superfan Drake can be found on a card in packs of 2019-20 NBA Hoops -- you know, the first set of the year where collectors could chase Zion Williamson Rookie Cards in his NBA uniform.

You'd think that Drake might have shown up on cards before -- it's possible he has and I just don't know -- but he's definitely there on one card in the release. Keep reading for the details ...
