Where you buy it from ? Any Kobe rookies are good to have IMO,even the UD graded 10 is worth something.

Was looking for my cards since the pandemic started considering I’m only working every other week.
Finally found all my iverson/Kobe/jeter/arod/Griffey/Frank Thomas/bo Jackson/barry bonds rookies.
Found my Griffey 97 bowman atomic refractor
Still looking for my shaq rookies and my lew Alcindor rookie.
Looking at what some of the Griffey inserts I use to be stoked about are going for is laughable now.

Post some pics.
Aye when ur submitting to PSA do you wipe down every card before you send ? I have never done that when i have submitted thru a group sub but i keep hearing you should ? Cards i have pulled from packs/boxes i have always put in a penny sleeve and an ultra pro and stored them until i mailed them...Whenever i take cards out of packs i have always handled on the edges and never on the front or backs so i never felt it was necessary...
I always look over the surfaces. You need to angle light on the surface just right so you can see everything. If they're cards you pack pulled, you should be fine but personally I would double check them to be safe.
If you bought it raw off eBay, definitely double check it. Very likely you will need to wipe it somewhere.

I’ll post some when I get done looking at all the cards I’ve found.
One thing I noticed which surprised me is some rookie hockey cards are cheap and there are not many graded.

Just some of the what I thought were the cooler basketball cards. I can post some of the baseball cards if anyone wants. Obviously I went in heavy on Kidd and grant hill. Then of course just like pretty much everyone else I was big into that 96 draft class.
Getting almost impossible to find decent deals anymore. Everything is exploding. Donruss is $350 a box now. I see some Kobe and LeBron refractors going for thousands. It's great for people who already had some of these cards but I don't know where the average collector is gonna fit in. You can't even find retail packs at Walmart/Target anymore because people are there when products get released and wipe out the shelves.

Cant keep up forever....I did cop a Trae silver prizm AND fast break prizm..with the dollar exchange fukkn me up right now im prolly sitting out for a bit other than to submit cards for grading and resell....
I bought a box from eBay. Offered the seller $100 and he took it. Ended up with 3 Kobe rookies and a few Kobe rookie inserts.
And some Iverson, Nash, Starbury, and Ray Allen rookies.
100.00 seems like a good deal i was looking around and most were going for 250-300.00.
Theres value at 100.00 at 300.00 ur better off just buying the singles individually online...
