Ain't bought a pack of cards since Yao Ming was still an All-star....Are them boxes they have in front of Target worth buying?

Buying boxes?
People are just opening the boxes in the store and taking what they want. Hard on hoes is now hard on the hobby lol.

Do any of you buy, sell, and collect autograph helmets?

I have three speed authentic ones I bought over the past few years. Looking to sell them, and wasn't sure what you would think would be fair value for them. My friend that I bought them from thinks I can definitely get $1,500 for them, but I don't know about that with how the market has been.


I have an AJ Brown, DK Metcalf, and Justin Fields speed authentic auto helmet.

I got an offer for $1,650 on the Mahomes gold optic. After fees, it's about $1,450 that I'd net. Not sure if I want to take that offer or not.

I wanted to keep holding for a while, but I am trying to free up some more cash for a big down payment on a $800k house, so anything at this point that I can sell outside of my stock and crypto portfolio would help.

Worth it, or no? Do you see this being worth significantly more down the road?

Can’t imagine getting much better than that in the near term.

@Regular_P is the card market still plummeting?

Was hoping we’d hit rock bottom by now

What do you mean, they’re opening boxes and taking what they want?

Sold the Mahomes card for $1,800.

Definitely not what I wanted for it, but I'll take it at this point.

Seems like it's stabilized. Where prices are now is the new low, which is much higher than before the boom.

Yeah man, these blaster boxes are the new scratch ticket. People are just opening in store, and if they don't get that box hit they leave the base behind.

Base cards are such a waste.

Need to send them overseas like they do the Super Bowl losing teams tshirts

Bron's Kaboom is a great one this year.

@Regular_P for me, the card boom happened with Zion and Ja Morant

Now the prices for those two are looking

They let a lot of people down.

At least Grant Hill and Penny had injuries as an excuse. These two are just bozos.

I still believe in Zion though.
