1997-98 Skybox E-X2001 Parallel pickups in the shop today..
 

I was unable to attain one of them, but I did get the other five. Great looking cards. They were in the old snap tight protectors...really cool.

Oh my goodness. What shop?

Very cool that they have this kind of rare inventory.

These were brought in to my shop, from a customer. I am always amazed at what walks through the front door some days...def best thing about owning a card shop.

Incredible cards and nice photography! Definitely make the deal for the Barkley.

ETA: I remember those old snap tight card holders. I remember as a kid thinking they were so awesome (no more dealing with screws!). The progenitor to the modern day one touch!

What a sight!

Those are some great cards. I like all of those players. Thsnks for sharing.

Wow, these are awesome! Definitely pick up that Barkley if you can. :)!

Trying to! What’s a good price for this card?????


There is not a lot to go off on this one...

Unreal that those just wandered in...if the Mitch Richmond I need (can never remember if it's now or future, but I have the /60 and need the /21) was in this thread I would've lost my mind lol.

Sweet!

One up on ebay for 8000. I'm sure a fraction of that, but you're going to be paying 4 figs for sure.

Great EX-2001 Essential Credential!!

wowza. I predict many PMs on these. Great cards!

Great pickups op! That Barkley will definitely cost you, heck even the worst rookies like Johnny Taylor are probably $200 minimum. Not to mention how a few of these are #ed in the 20s, these are big $ cards.

That’s quite the haul. Makes me wonder what else they have.

My guess is 1-2K, but I could be way off. A 98 essential credential Barkley recently sold for 1.5k, but I could see the 97 being more desirable.

Sensational!

98 and 97 are apples and oranges. Obviously depending on print run of the player. But say a certain player had similar print run both years, id expect double perhaps more .

Makes sense, but yeah I have no idea. I collect guys like Tony Battie from this set.. :D

97-98 Barkley is around $2000-2500 I would think in this market. It might even run up to $3000-3500 at auction.

I think if I owned a shop and was making an offer on it as a business that needs to turn a profit, I would offer $1750 and maybe even pay the $2000 as I believe you could get more than that when you sold it.

Just my 2 cents.

Man that Steve Smith is slick.

Thank You. Kind of right in line with what I was thinking.

Was able to secure the Barkley today, and he threw in his “doubles boxes” which I found 4 MJs and 7 Kobe’s and a finest base Kobe too.

Really neat acquisition, especially with the Barkley. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy the cards.

Awesome stuff! This set is a 90's classic

Wow, amazing stuff.

That would be the Now (yellow one). The vets were higher numbered in the future set while the rookies were higher numbered in the now set.

Woah...

Ignore this question if it's crossing any personal lines, but how do you find owning a card shop? Do you do live breaks? I know cards are coming back, but I imagine it might be hard to turn a profit w/ most people buying stuff online these days.

oh my that's awesome!

Nice!
