My thoughts, which could be totally wrong. Today’s investors, most likely invest in the hot players who our playing now. I won’t invest in any stars since they came into the nba 2017. Why, because 96% will have great careers, but won’t make the hall of fame. What will happened when forgotten there cards will tank. I’m investing under value cards that you buy at the right time will make you money. Not the crazy money. Look at the players who will be nominating in NBA hall of fame in the next 5 yrs.

That’s all I will say.

IMO this has no place in this thread, it's dumb. This is for folks wanting to show off something from their "collection". Notice I said collection, not investment.

Seems like very, very few people that aren't investors anymore. Even collectors invest to build capital to build their collections more because the goal is to acquire the most expensive collection possible. Not good or bad, just an observation.

This is my attempt not to make generalizations lol

Well considering that there are more Silver Prizms of Kobe from 2018 & 2019 and their pricing, I consider these very undervalued. 3000 & 1500 seems like a lot (back in the day, these were cheap) but condition and "aging" have done wonders for these types of parallels. A solid Buy!

Great black diamonds. Always loved that design and the photos are top notch. Great pickups

Too bad MJ wasn't in Ultra Jam City. Those are so much tougher than Scoring Kings in condition and more limited. Design a little less desirable.

Great Shaq's!! The inaugural Jam City Shaq is still on my want list. Do you know what made your Power in the Key Shaq a 5? The front looks great in that picture, but I guess it's hard to tell how good the foils is on the card. Surprised it's a 5 based on your picture.

Just to the left of his head on the top edge there is a quarter inch section that curls forward. I think they graded it as a crease and hence the 5. That’s what I think because otherwise it’s kinda perfect. The jam city has a dinged corner and the Hakeem has the same issue as the power in the key.

Thnx lecreccio 90's had the best inserts in all Sports across the board. I never collected Hockey but even seeing some of those 90's cards make me want to grab some.

I think it is the design that’s the difference. I’m not a huge Jordan fan but the 93 Scoring Kings Jordan is my favorite insert of the 90’s.

Always loved 93 Jam City, especially the Shaq. It’s literally the perfect Shaq photo.
