107 purples graded by PSA so far, and only 17 10s. 17!! Not saying Holo isn't a much more desirable card(it obviously is) but there's now 479 graded by PSA and 217 10s |

Just looking at all the sky rocketing Luka’s out there, his Noir cards have to be the only ones that have yet to really take off. They are super affordable.....people must really hate Noir

What’s the issue with this one? Surface on these is crazy. Wish I knew if the other PSA 9 on the pop report is actually out there. I somewhat think that it was cracked out and is either the one I own or is in a BGS slab.

The issue is on the surface. You can’t tell on the scan but in the upper right corner on the front of the card looks like it’s slightly bent but nothing in the back. I’m happy to own it even as a 7

Hey all, wanted to know your opinions on 2nd year Luka cards.
Numbered cards from rookie year are kind of out of my price range and there's an opportunity to buy an Optic Choice red /88. Thing is I'd have to sell some of my Ja PC to be able to purchase it. |

I'm SUPER late to the party...I FINALLY added a Luka tonight. Had all this time to add multiple Lukas and just never did.

I just bought a Silver Prizm for $8k. Obviously I’m betting there is still plenty of room for growth

Quite a gamble, but thankfully cards don't crash as hard as other assets in other markets do IMO. Last edited by deemsterz33; 08-14-2020 at 03:57 AM. |

I'd like to get some thoughts on Luka RC's. Like a lot of people I got back into collecting about a year and a half ago. I collected with my Dad in the 80's and then I got to "cool" for it in the 90's when I was in high school and stopped going to shows and flea markets with him. I still regret that. After he passed last year, I started selling his vintage baseball because I wanted to get into basketball. I was lucky because he did buy a limited amount of basketball in the 80's. He bought me a Bird/Magic RC for Christmas one year. He also bought a Jordan RC that is lost somewhere in my house after moving (that's a story for another day I guess). Somewhere in the early 2000's he bought a Topps Lebron RC and a set of 2003 Topps basketball. So I'm pretty lucky there. I started scooping up Luka lots about this time last year. $15-$30 lots 5 or 6 RC's. I have roughly a 125 Luka's say a 60/40 split of 1st and 2nd year. 2nd years are mostly SP's or numbered. So my question is this, I bought Luka cards as an investment, never thinking that they would explode like they have. I have multiple low end Luka RC's, Playoff, Luminance, Marquee, Classic, Elite, Hoops etc. Would you hold onto those or would you sell now and invest in higher end Luka's? Basically is it better to have multiple lower end RC's or maybe 1 or 2 higher end RC's. I'm not a fan of graded cards, I like raw cards, call me crazy so I'd like to stick to raw. I've been silently reading this thread for over a year now, and I want to thank you guys for the all the info. I picked up a bunch of cards that I wouldn't have known about simply by reading about your experiences.

I’d much rather have a few rare or “big” cards than a ton of low end rookies. I’d rather pull out 1-3 amazing Lukas than have a binder full of mass produced Base rookies. It’s a great time to grade those lots and move them for the rare or high end. If you say Luka RC the average collector or even dedicated collector can probably only vividly describe a few cards. Those are the cards I want to own, or the super rare cards that are impossible to find. Anything in the middle gets lost in the shuffle IMO. I search Luka cards at least 10 times a day and I can’t tell you anything about playoff, luminance or classic. |

Personally could care less about the grade; properly slabbed and an absolute gorgeous card sir!

Love seeing all the Lukas. All the Lukas graded, or not graded are going to be high-demand, but my advice is don't get too much that you forget the other players that are cheap. How many Gary Trent you could of gotten for 1 Luka Prizm base RC? I would buy Luka when the Mavs are eliminated, ofc I don't hope that, but that is the time to buy more.

All the same price what are you taking? Rank the 3.
Luka base Prizm PSA 10 Luka Hyper Prizm PSA 9 Luka Silver Prizm PSA 9 With most recent pop reports and rarity (only in hobby/fotl) id go hyper, silver, then base. What am I missing? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Agreed, there are some good values on the auto subsets and rookie jersey cards..The Sneaker Spotlights are around $4500-$5k unless my searching was wrong, those are strengthening. Only 99 of those with no parallels, I really think they are going to get locked up in PCs and will not surface too often after the next year or two..

Yeah, I agree with CJsHockeyCards and GoNYGoNYGo. This order and it’s not close. I don’t care who’s pumping them (I believe SCI is one), the Hypers are ugly and pop reports aren’t gonna help it catch the Silver. Of course that’s just my opinion.
