Speculation starting to run on Blowout that Lamelo might not sign his redemptions. There's been a lot of them in this year's products. That'd kill National Treasures.

I'll probably need another month or two before I buy a big card. All depends on how these crypto markets go. If I can get back to where it was two months ago, then I would be able to go for a home-run card now.

I wouldn't say I'm set on a certain price for a card or particular card right now, but I do want to get a high end card or two. Maybe this won't qualify as high end to collectors, but I'm looking at a card that would be at least valued at $10,000. I'd probably be willing to spend up to $30,000 on a high end card or a few really nice cards. Will likely hold out until August or September though........

I'm getting ready to try and submit a few cards. Just want to make sure I'm doing everything correctly.

Thoughts on the look of this card, and if need to put it it anything in particular?

Technically supposed to be in Card Savers but they should accept it in a top loader. I didn't realize how off-center that is. That won't get a 10 but still worth getting graded.

:francis:.


And, would you recommend getting either of these graded? I'm pretty sure the answer is "no" for the second card as you pointed out some damage on it before.

@Regular_P

Is the part you mentioned about the centering where it looks (it is) lopsided in the top parts of the card? Looks like a larger border on one side?
The border generally gets graded on the top left part compared to the bottom. It looks a little off left to center as well. Doesn't matter though. A Mahomes Gold Prizm should be graded no matter what. It's gonna command money regardless.

The Kyler NFL Gear card looks pretty clean and worth grading.

Thanks for the information.

Should I order and put them in some card savers instead of top loaders? I can probably get some online and shipped to my house in a few days. I saw some youtube videos where they said PSA wants them like that, but if you have a top loader instead, that it should be fine.

If you can find them cheap, I would do that. I know there was a shortage all last year but don't know if that's still going on. I haven't looked in a while and I still have a bunch myself.
