So the question is...are you buying at these prices?


Pls respawn. My 401k is ready.

Not at 1,600. I had my eye on one but not anymore. It's like I saw it real time on ebay throughout the day. We've all seen runs on ebay before but this week has been crazy. At least for that specific card. I'm sure others as well tho.

This is spot on.

I had a 97-98 Metal Universe on COMC for months. Someone FINALLY offered a little over $80 for it today. The hype is slow to hit there.

It's the perfect year, a stunning card and it will skyrocket. May maintain too.

I always keep an eye on his 93/94 Ultra Scoring Kings and snap up a bargain one whenever I see it, but they seem to consistently be going for 400-500 USD right now, sometimes higher, for ungraded. Mine are ungraded since I hate slabbed cards, but looking at them they're in the kind of condition easily selling for 500+ right now, which to me is crazy - they're pieces of cardboard, and there's loads of them out there.

Not to mention the Retro Scoring Kings which I've been after for ages, but they're being listed for well over $1000 USD now. So not for me I don't think

I suppose the same could be said about many modern players who have acheived nothing yet.

It can be said about most cards in existence, really

The good ole Jordan run. I swear I since the exact same thing happen 3 years ago. Those 1990 Fleer psa 10s are such a good deal! Same movie different year.

In all seriousness, avoid buying into pump and dump train.

Better start picking up his base Finest and Chrome as well. Either there is some real ignorance, or there is massive shilling going on. There is a 1996-97 Topps Chrome base of him in the $200 range.

If this craze is real, I have 100's of base Chrome an Finest I'm going to be listing soon. This explosion of the basketball market is nuts.

A month ago, I would look suspiciously at someone paying $50 for any of these base cards. There are some nice base cards, and in premium condition, I can understand a bit of a higher price, but I have no intention of chasing and Jordan base cards (excluding 87/88, 88/89 fleer), that go above $100 or aren't part of some limited release (e.g., finite, exquisite).

I’ve had great luck selling Luc and Ron Harper (in Bulls uniforms) base cards for a buck each on comc. It’s crazy.

The rookie has increased roughly 700% in the last 10 days or so. Does that count?

Yes, my Pippen refractors have been getting picked off on COMC over the last 72 hours, so someone is anticipating a pump.

Seems so odd but I think maybe a PSA 8 1986 Fleer is the current value. They really don't seem to have moved much at all in the last two weeks.

Now that Jordan stuff is taking off, will it make Kobe (90's inserts and autos) and Lebron prices look cheaper and pull their prices up?

We were told all of that was fake though.

Wonder if those people think it's all still fake
