Good point. Basketball from my experience.

I would assume they’re a coveted set in football as well, maybe not as valued, though.

Yeah, I was specifically talking about NFL as I don't really have any NBA cards.

And, I don't see how it's really worth doing a goldins auction as a buyer. I understand that there are bigger buyers there than Ebay and wherever else, but a 20% buyers premium for buying a damn card? That's absolutely absurd to me.

If you're selling that card down the road, you'll need to hope you get that same 20% premium back on the sale of the card, and have it sell high enough to cover whatever percentage is taken for selling a card there. That seems absolutely absurd to me.:manny:.


If you buy a card for $40,000, you end up paying $48,000 + tax. Then when you go sell that card years down the road, let's say the "commission" is even a low 10%, you need to find a buyer for $55,000 to even just break even. And, I'm assuming the commission for that auction house is much higher than 10%..........

Hey brehs. I pulled a RJ Barrett Purple Laser /15 and the same for Cam Reddish


any idea how much they can go for? Is it still better to get them graded?

also have some Ja Morant rookie prizm base and prizm variation. Wondering the same

:salute: @Regular_P

I wasn't going to win that Lamar card even if I had bid. It went for $19,100 plus the rip off buyers premium to put it at $22,920. Didn't want to spend that kind of money on that card right now. Had no idea how high it was going to go.

You're chalked on RJ and Cam. MAYBE a crazy Knicks fan will overpay on RJ.

The Morant Prizms will be in the $50-70 range for the base, raw. Variation will probably be similar.

I saw this and thought the Barrett might be worth something:
2019-20 Panini Donruss RJ BARRETT #/15 Purple Laser RC PSA 9 New York Knicks | eBay

For the Morant cards, would you recommend I get them graded? Thanks breh :salute:
No one's made any offers on that since May. It's wildly overpriced like a lot of BINs/BOs on eBay, unfortunately.

Would only be worth it if it came back as a 10. Cheapest option is still $100 so if it came back a 9, you wouldn't even get your money back. Personally, I'd wait until they come through with a cheaper option before grading.

Thanks breh didn't realize the prices are outrageous for grading.

Is BGS similar as well?

And :scusthov: at how far the Zion prices have fell.

Don't blame them though the fat fukk might not play all year

BGS is cheaper but you probably won't get it back for a year and it doesn't command the premium that a PSA 10 would get.

I need Zion to get healthy and ball out. :sadcam:

I still believe. :lupe:

You can negotiate the fees with auction houses. If it's over 20K, you should be getting part of the commission.

PWCC gives 110% over 10K.

I think my friend might have just hit a jackpot. He called me earlier saying it was urgent. Apparently, a new card shop opened nearby that a friend of his owns. When he went there, a person walked in with a big box of cards asking if they buy cards. The guys that worked there said they do, but he would have to wait until his partner got there.

My friend followed this guy home and ended up buying a all of this guys cards for $4,000. He says there must be at least 100+ graded Mahomes and Brady cards of PSA 9 or higher. I'm going to head over shortly. I looked up only a handful that he texted me, and I'm pretty sure just five or ten of these cards make his money back.

Might not be a bad idea to pick up a few Anfernee Simons cards. Could be on that Darius Garland wave. :patrice:
