Think I’m gonna go wait in line at target Friday try and get some boxes.

It’s been several months since I’ve payed any attention. What should I be targeting basketball and baseball wise? Trying to flip them on eBay.

Chase Courtside Silvers if you can. I believe those will have a big price boost at some point down the road. Those will be looked at as the key Silvers for Luka and Zion.

The annoying thing about trying to pick up key Steph cards is nobody wants to sell. His shyt is like Kobe where everybody holds.

Got him and Curry now. Still need to get a LeBron and Zion although most of the Zions are really off center, even some of the 10s.

Ive tried but the few that are on ebay dont sell outside the US....Ive only seen a BGS 9.5 in a PWCC auction.

I been on a Curry spree since the beginning of the year...i grabbed a few silver prizms,optic holos and selects from diff years...One thing i have never had trouble with is reselling these things....even at 200-350.00 i know i can re sell and make money...

Last year I was buying raw Silvers and Holos for $15-20 a pop, gemming them and flipping for $125-200. Easiest money in the game.

So, I was interested in buying a CeeDee Lamb card last night. Someone in a break offered to sell me one, but I can't find a comp.


It's listed on a FB group as select RPA 8/10.



Edit: I'm blind as fukk. I didn't notice it had a patch..


Any idea what this would go for, roughly?

I don’t have the slightest clue what that would go for.

Helps that it’s gold. But it’s a sticker auto. And it’s a WR. Which makes it very hard to appreciate over time.

I personally wouldn’t pay any more than a couple hundred for it. And it would only be for PC purposes, I wouldn’t be looking at that card as any sort of investment.

Also. That “patch” is quite awful for a gold /10. Panini some trash

Got a few Hurts disco cards the other night..

Are they numbered? I'm not really a fan of the Disco parallels.

Honestly, I'd have to look back at the break. I've been doing more than I planned on doing. Definitely not worth doing them if you are trying to come out ahead, but I enjoy doing them at times.

What do you think of this Cam Newton card?

Edit: Not just talking about the price as prices for every card I look at seem to be all over the place. I've been using 130point.com for comparisons, but if you know another site that you can search for sold cards that you're looking for price comparisons, please let me know.

That's one of his best RCs, especially since his Contenders RC auto is on card. Autograph looks good too.

130 is good for prices. I use a plug-in on Chrome called Slabwatch to view Best Offer prices.

If you’re going to invest in a QB, his rookie ticket auto is a top 3 card to own

1500 doesn’t go a long way in today’s hobby. If you’re looking at Cam Newton futures, that’s honestly a great price.

How do you guys typically value the difference between an 8, 9, and 10 PSA? Just comparing to recent sales, or is there a percentage range that you look at in terms of price difference?


I guess I'm trying see if there really should be this difference in pricing for these cards?

From what I’ve seen in actual sales and auctions, along with read and heard from others, PSA 9 and Raw will be roughly the same value for a lot of modern era cards.

PSA 10 can be anywhere from 1.5x - 3x the cost of a PSA 9.

It really depends on print run and era of cards. Older cards or cards that are hard to gem, you’ll see a higher multiplier on the 10.
