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.

--

RARE SIMPLICITY
The Item: LeBron James 2019-20 Panini Contenders Optic Uniformity Gold (/10)
The Price: $2,938 after 28 bids (ends tonight)
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This isn't the flashiest card and there's no autograph or memorabilia here, but it's an A-lister on a color that's perhaps perfect for his team with good timing (NBA Finals) and some super scarcity from a brand that's getting plenty of attention. It's also a perfect example of how the NBA market can be these days ... a little nutty, maybe a little unbelievable but the market is for real. (And people are buying the boxes and other notable cards across the board to prove it.) Will this one jump up even more before it ends? Probably, but you never know -- I've been known to put curses on cards showing them here, too.
Similar Pieces: 2029-20 Panini Contenders Optic NBA cards on eBay

This one is a new department here on The Buzz ... Fast Five -- a quick list under a simple topic that might offer a basic starting point for a themed collection. It's a basic list of five items that could be fun for a starting collector or a new way to add to a stash that might already seemingly include everything when it comes to cardboard. For some of you, it's probably common sense. For others of you out there, it's perhaps something to ponder.

This time? MLB postseason players to watch on cardboard

Shane Bieber -- SP, Cleveland Indians
This year's most-dominating pitcher took home the Triple Crown when the season ended and he's got tonight's must-win game against the Yankees and their top arm, Gerrit Cole. Bieber's got just three Rookie Cards and that makes for some added volatility -- 2018 Topps Update and Topps Chrome Update and then Panini Spectra, which was found in boxes of 2018 Panini Chronicles. Those are also sets loaded with other hobby-favorite rookies -- so they are in demand and not cheap. His first autographed cards also arrived that year in Bowman Chrome, while his first prospect cards dropped in 2017 ... but without ink so there's not anything earlier to truly trump the 2018 stuff. His basic cardboard is pretty cheap big-picture, but his rarities and early autos are not -- and tonight's the night that is a key to them all. If they lose, the hype goes elsewhere. If they win and make a run? Watch out ... "Not Justin" will just get hotter.

Keep reading for four more making up the list this time.
