Editor's Note: This story was first published on September 3, 2022. As of September 9, 2022, every Alcaraz card was sold out at NetPro's official online shop. By September 11, Alcaraz clinched his first major title at the US Open to cement his rise to world No. 1. Some investors have cashed in with significant ROIs on secondary markets like eBay. One example: an autographed apparel retro card originally priced $3,600 was sold for $21,000 in a best offer sale.
