I can't believe how much the 2008-09 Topps Chrome cards of Kobe with LeBron are going for now. I had all of them except the Gold and Super. Sold them all years ago before the boom. Here's a picture of the Red /5 I had. :wow:

I collected card hard body in the 90s and early 2000's, but I stopped cuz it seem to be a fruitless endeavor since most of them weren't worth more than a few nickels. So I'm far out the loop
Is there a good online price guide that lets you see what everything is worth now?
How do you get cards graded?

PSA might be doubling their prices next week. The deal got closed to take Collector's Universe private too with Nat Turner and Steve Cohen's group.

I have subs still there from June/July. :scust:

No real price guide. Best thing is to follow completed eBay auctions to get a sense of a card's worth or ask us in here.

PSA and BGS are the two main grading options. You fill out their forms online and send your cards away, though there's a process to it and how they want the cards shipped.

Pickups from the past few months:

Picked up the Crunch Times because they're almost impossible to gem. That's the only Curry out of 27 graded and there's only six out of 108 LeBrons.

I've missed out on both 2019 Blank Slate PSA 10 LeBrons that have auctioned. Last one I was outbid by $33. :unimpressed:

There's only one more out there. :mjcry:

The crunch time and blank slate inserts are nice cards,i just dont understand the value for them...I still dont get why inserts are more valued than lower pop and lower print rookie year cards...

They aren't though. Base Topps Chrome LeBron RCs are going for $35-45K as PSA 10s and those aren't even low pop/print run. No insert he has is touching that except a rookie year Jambalaya. His rookie Refractors are six figure cards for PSA 10s.

@Regular_P let me hold a few dollars breh :patrice:
I've been cashing in a few cards lately. Some of the more common stuff I have that's going for $3-7,000, I feel like it's smart to take the money now. :lupe:

I bought a Duncan E-X2001 PSA 10 RC a few months ago for around $500 and just sold it for $3,100. :lupe:

His stuff's jumped lately like I thought it would eventually. I wonder what his Ultra PSA 10s would go for now. :lupe:

I didnt mean Lebron rookies cuz we all know he is king of the hobby....We know that alot of recent numbered inserts hold more collectability and value over alot of HOF player rookies who arent named LeBron or Kobe...Im not mad at anyone flipping em but I cant understand why anyone would wanna pay 25k for an insert :yeshrug:

Stop reminding me of LeBron TC rookie prices ill never live down that mistake...
