When I Opened My Pack Of Cards And Saw This I Did The Dance Of Joy, I Thought I Was Gonna Buy My Future Mansion Off This bytch, A Jordan 45 Card!

Fast Forward To 2012 And I See A Muhfukka Selling It On eBay For 10 Bucks

Still got all my pokemon cards in a mint binder. From standard to ultra rare. Imma keep them shyts forever

 

[Xtraz2]

Yeah I shoulda sold mine when they were actually worth somethin 20 years ago

 

[WaveCapsByOscorp™]

i've still got a michael jordan minor league baseball card somewhere at my parents house. that's gotta be worth something like in 30-40 years i imagine...

I Got Over 30 Jordan Cards In Single Hard Plastics And I Doubt They Are Worth Over $50 Combined

I Never Looked Them Up Bu I Just Know It

The Oldest Is From The 88-89 Season

I Got A Bunch Of Rookie Cards Too From Shaq, Kidd, Garnett Etc...

I Started Collecting Baseball Cards Way Back But They're All Gone Now

I actually sold about 80% of my collection for a couple of stacks back in 2004 or 2005 before the market went completely bust. But now I got boxes of cards in the crib collecting mad dust.

Gotta market those jordans and rookies as a package deal

The problem with the state of card collecting is that supply drives down prices. Card manufacturers made tons of cards so it's not special anymore. Too many people buy them up in volume.
You got a MVP of a player, like Michael Jordan, but hundreds of other people have the same card. It's not like a Babe Ruth card or Mickey Mantle card.

Yeah That Late 80's Early 90's Boom Where Athletes Became Celebrities Pretty Much fukked The Game Up, Too Much Mass Production

Hopefully As Time Goes By More Cards Get Lost

Maybe When Im 70 And Jordan Is Dead I Can Finally

I got at least 50 Jordan cards and thousands total of just basketball cards.. I remember that Jordan rookie was worth like 2 stacks, anybody know what its worth now?

Im just gonna hold onto my cards and pass em down like they're worth something and let my kids deal with the disappointment

Thought I would of that Girffey Upper Deck rookie eventually



The only baseball card that's really worth a lot over the past 25 years is the Frank Thomas rookie error card.

 

[Angel On The Rag]

i sold a jordan card for 300 dollars in 1999

 

[KEEPITTRILLA]

In middle school I was heavy into that shyt I mean I could probably make a few bills selling some, but those are the autograph/jersey type shyts

 

[Kenny West]

Pokemon card status: Still not worth a damn thing.

 

[Young_and_Reckless]

got a '86 jordan card, Walter peyton rookie card and a bunch of original garbage pail kids cards. Hopefully it'll all be worth something one day...
