new to MMA cards, has Arianny cards always been selling high?

bgbdbstrd · 04-14-2012, 07:50 PM

i wanted to take a break from basketball (collecting shaq, and the 90's prices are just going astronomical), then got interested in collecting arianny cards (she's the reason i got interested in watching MMA's before i eventually appreciated the sport lol :hearts: ) was expecting that its a fun, easy on the wallet collection, but was kinda surprised that her auto cards are selling for a pretty penny (in the hundreds for low #'d even), and her relic cards are selling like Jordan GU's i could understand that there are a number of collectors who's into arianny (not necessarily MMA :kick: ) but has her cards been selling like this since the MMA cards started (i think 2009?) will they eventually drop once arianny "retires" in a few years?or will the price stay by virtue o
f her being the iconic ring girl?

in any case, ive already shelled out more than i was expecting to start a PC of her lol

True that. Any time there's some dedicated followers, card prices will climb to the point of demand. And yes she is quite bodacious.

I hope they give us more Brittney Palmer

Nah, but yeah, for some reason, she sells even higher than most fighters.. I got a VERY good trade in exchange for a ruby gear relic of hers from UFC series 4 (#/8) .. Beautiful card, but at least what I got in exchange included a black belt book card and a leaf metal auto of Arianny.

Here's a pic of it (Still keeping the black one for my set)
