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 FOR CHARITY 
The Item: Zion Williamson & R.J. Barrett 2019-20 Panini Prizm Draft Picks College Ties Black Mosaic (1/1) (BGS 9.5/10)
The Price: $15,401 after 63 bids (eight days remaining)
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This card has taken on a life of its own on social media as it was pulled in a video and then taken to Texas for grading -- but then the story took another turn when its owner decided there needed to be a different finish to this card's story ... an auction where 100 percent of the money raised goes to charity. Listen to him make his decision public right here. The Zion prices have been crazy but this one could get even more dramatic before it ends -- it was at five-figures within the first day of its listing, despite Williamson being out (for now) with an injury.

Started strong, ended with the win.

Los Angeles Rams WR Cooper Kupp put on a show in the first half of things on Sunday against the Bengals but settled down after that in a 24-10 win. Ultimately the only numbers that matter are the final ones -- seven catches for 220 yards and a TD. At the half, he looked like he might be pushing the NFL's single-game receiving record but Kupp didn't even come close to the team record, either, as both are 336 yards set by Willie "Flipper" Anderson with 336 yards back in 1989.

Kupp is among the loaded 2017 rookie crop so chasing him in wax form might not be that easy now but there's a chance he's tucked away in boxes where people landed the other guys and let the rest sit. An injury prevented him from Super Bowl time last year but he's averaging 99 yards a game this season and could set career-highs for TDs and yardage with a solid showing in his next game.

One of Major League Baseball's young stars is in the World Series -- and hitting .571 through two games -- and that means there should be even more people watching him and potentially thinking about buying some his baseball cards.

Where do you start when it comes to Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto? Well, that's what we're here for and it's not that simple -- though it is a tad simpler than when we revisited Ronald Acuña Jr.'s Rookie Cards earlier this year. The 21-year-old (as of tomorrow, the day of Game 3) appears on nearly 2,200 different baseball cards despite just arriving on cardboard in 2016 and on Rookie Cards last year -- in fact he appeared on basically 700 different cards in 2018 alone -- so that's where we'll start with the simple stuff, his RCs.

He's got around 20 Rookie Cards based on traditional definitions and set builds, but for simplicity we've punted anything that's got an autograph or memorabilia swatch as part of the package. We're looking at the simplest of those -- 15 cards of varying values and ease of finding. Some are challenges, some are not -- but now's the time to be paying more attention than ever to them.

Keep reading for a rundown of Juan Soto's Rookie Cards.

What: 2019 Panini Limited football cards
Arrives: Feb. 5
Box basics: Two autographs and one memorabilia card per three-pack box (14 boxes per case)
Order: Click here (live soon)

What's buzz-worthy: Limited returns with plenty of what collectors have come to expect here -- big booklets and big hits with plenty of rookies -- for another go on the gridiron.

What: 2019-20 Panini NBA Sticker & Card Collection
Arrives: Live now
Box basics: 50 cards and 250 stickers per 50-pack box (20 boxes per case)
Order: Click here (live soon)

What's buzz-worthy: Panini's annual sticker collection adds a twist for a new season with a certain headline-grabbing rookie in the mix -- there's a basketball card in every pack with super-rare parallels also potentially to be found this time around.

HE LOVES L.A. AFTER GAME ONE
The Item: Kawhi Leonard 2012-13 Panini Immaculate Collection rookie patch auto (/100)
The Price: $2,999 Buy-It-Now (or best offer)
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: What do you collect when a star has bounced around and arrives in a new home, scoring 30 points in his new team debut against their rival? Well, I don't know as I'm firmly priced out on the big cards in basketball these (but I do have a clean NBA Hoops RC headed into a slab soon and I'll dig that) but my gut says that his hottest cards soon will be his first Clippers cards more than his Raptors or Spurs stuff. But, with that not here yet, the best bets would be to bargain hunt among the rookie patch autos from his rookie season like this one. There could be cheaper ones for sure, but there are also a ton of pricier ones with National Treasures cards in slabs going into five-figures. There's no doubt that Leonard is a talent and here's hoping the past weirdness settles down and he's a Clipper for some time with success ... that would justify the big-money prices for his cards and justify even more gains for sure. He's already got championships with two teams and there are expectations for more. Game 1 against LeBron and his Lakers seemed to start off on a big note, which might fuel expectations and interest here even more if his team continues playing as it did last night.

There were no holes in his game.

That's a cheesehead joke so don't take it too literal -- even though it's true -- Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers had a day during a 42-24 win over the Raiders. How big? He had a part in every TD scored for his team on Sunday, completing 25 of 31 passes for 429 yards and five TDs -- and he added two carries for six yards and one more score, too. All of his passing TDs went to different receivers and he also made a mark in the overall record book as he reached 350 TDs in just his 172nd game.

That's the fastest pace in NFL history as Drew Brees had held that pace record at 180 games. The prices of Rodgers' early cardboard should make it obvious in some instances that he's easily among the all-time greats statistically -- though there are some bargains to be found with his 2005 Rookie Cards. He sits at ninth on the career passing TD list at 351 but with five other active guys ahead of him (also a sign that NFL offenses have changed in recent years). Fun unrelated QB fact: Did you know Tom Brady is just 12 TDs shy of tying the NFL record? So, watch for that this season -- and you need to watch all of the cards for guys at the top of this list. Cheaper early Rodgers cards are worth picking up.
