Before quarantine, cocaine. After quarantine... it's a toss up!

The nice thing about basketball cards is you can't snort them.

Ok I'm back at it. Best deal out of these was definitely the Giannis 16-17 Optic holo purchased for a whopping 5 bucks. Wish I picked up 10 of them though. Yup, never satisfied.

The last of Zion and Ja, and my 1 MPJ I pulled out of the 2 18-19 FOTL Prizm boxes I opened. Surprised what they're fetching.

Dude! Wow you should be glad you can’t snort these, or you’d be F’ed up lol!

But seriously, good taste you’ve got there

Donte's cards have been steadily rising all season. Glad I picked these NTs up when they were in the $100s. I'm a fan of Herro too, just sucks his injury stopped his progression.

More Stephs. Yes, I have a serious Curry addiction. My favorite of the bunch has to be the 15-16 Revolution Futura now a POP 3. I have to be honest I'm surprised it GEMd.

And I'm done! No big finale, just some 15-16 Prizms which was one of Prizms best years imo, and my only 10 in the entire order.

Thanks for following along if you've made it this far. I've already got a decent stack growing for my next bulk and that'll have some more non-Panini cards for people who despise the sandwich company. I'll tally up all my grades once my 4 year old goes to sleep!

SO much gggooolllllddd in there. Obviously I'm a fan of 90s but I think you've got a good eye (minus all the base rcs you had to send in for the ROI hahaha). Lots of good looking parallels all around. And of course that Finest Lebron refractor is sick. Thanks for sharing! Maybe IF I send in my 51 just to get to that second level of pricing I will do a not-as-big thread similar to yours, except there will be a TON of 8.5s guaranteed lmao

I blame you for setting the tone for the rest of the thread.

Thx. Thought for sure the Curry was getting at least a 9.5 but I think I suck at wiping surfaces or something.

Definitely puts the mind at ease. Who wants to pay for gem mint prices anyways? Well I guess I do sometimes...

hahaa hey 8.5s for 90s cards are basically 9.5s for panini cards. hope you do it!


* * *

Ok the final breakdown.

10s- 1 (.7%)
9.5s - 101 (67.3%)
9s - 40 (26.7%)
8.5s - 2 (1.3%)
8s - 6- (4%)

I'd say I did quite average. 8s are high but those damn Contenders Optic Previews are tough! I really thought I'd get at least a few 10s but I guess they should be hard to get in theory.

Ahhhhh gotcha. I was like hey I know that! Haha.

Is it a renowned shop? I know they have like 1,500 consignment auctions and 10,000 fixed price listings on eBay at all times. It’s a 25 minute nonstop bus ride for me.

I think so? I know them because of their ebay presence and I've bought stuff from them in the past.

Well that’s cool the shop is awesome, the cabinets are always full of graded and raw star autos and rookies. The quarter bins are plentiful and there’s 50 different wax choices for each major sport. It’s an awesome store, I haven’t even ventured across the river into Vancouver Washington to the store there yet.
