Biggest percentage price drops you have seen since the pandemic pump

hermanotarjeta · 07-31-2022, 11:34 PM

Man, I recall 2019-20 Optic silver Lebrons selling for $150 raw last year.

One recently sold for $6.50.

Geez - 96% drop in price - that's crazy!!!

Have you seen any other drastic examples?

What about the LeBron Lakers Optic Rookie? Wow, that pump was impressive.

Like just under $1k to just under $100.

tjforce · 08-01-2022, 01:08 AM

Bol Bol Prizm Base peaking at over $800, now can be had under $10.

LeBron 2019 Prizm Base (first Lakers jersey)

But in other news... guess what is slightly UP from it's bottom?

Zion PSA 10 base and it's Pop of 21,401. From sub-$200 up to $225. #Invest

ljandkg · 08-01-2022, 01:40 AM

I pulled my KG topps rc out of my folder and got it graded for shits and giggles. It graded a 9 and I sold it for $250.

You can now get one for $17

sirvete · 08-01-2022, 02:57 AM

I remember trade the Ayton prizm silver RC (150$ trade value) and i got 1/1 Juan hernangomez triple patch (Bo Cruz) and Grant Hill auto jersey immaculate.

I feel a bit bad for my friend but was on that time a fair trade.

PSA 10 Topps Kobe and Garnett RCs

KhalDrogo · 08-01-2022, 07:47 AM

Lebron TC PSA 10 - 46.5k to 7.1k (84.7%)
LeBron TC BGS 9.5 - 20.6k to 3k (85.4%)
LeBron TC Refractor BGS 9.5 -125.6k to 22.2k (82.3%)
LeBron TC Refractor PSA 10 - 286.5k to 52.8k (81.6%)

sebreg · 08-01-2022, 08:12 AM

I'll give one of my own personal best shellackings I took: 1997 Bowman's Best Atomic Refractor BGS 9 Tim Duncan rc. Bought at peak, but finally ended up moving and took a loss I believe in the -70% range. I actually like that card a lot but wanted to move into some other stuff. Proves the usual adage, you can buy quality things but if you buy them at the wrong price you can get destroyed!

oldschooled · 08-01-2022, 08:55 AM

This is a combination of hype and pandemic jump.

Sold a 2020 Prizms silver Lebron #1 (Kobe tribute) - raw at ~$800
Average price today ~$50

That's a 93.75% drop

ronaldkosh · 08-01-2022, 09:20 AM

Football, but Cam Newton 2011 Contenders autos were going for $700-$800 when he signed with New England. Now going for $70-$80.

90% drop

Still higher than precovid prices. I remember when the tc psa 10 was worth 2k.

That poor guy. He'll forever be remembered when a Topps Chrome LeBron James PSA 10 is brought up.

He's not the only one...just the one many remember.

yiguiri2002 · 08-01-2022, 11:00 AM

It's crazy to me the amount of cards that fell 80-90% from the peak.

Spacemanspif · 08-01-2022, 11:08 AM

Too much is made out of "the peak". For most cards, it was less than 1% of the population sold for the headline amounts

This is true... I feel like we should look at some average of what a certain number of transaction went for instead of what one or two idiots overzealously paid.

But it's more fun to talk about what one or two idiots overzealously paid!

jetta20162 · 08-01-2022, 12:08 PM

1986 fleer MJ #57 psa 8's and 9's have dropped a lot

Can't be. I've been told that it's always safe to invest in GOATs.

It’s funny, most of the largest percentage drop cards mentioned have been for cards of GOAT-like players.

I wonder which Jordan card has dropped the most - maybe one of the base metal universe cards?

k13 · 08-01-2022, 01:41 PM

So 90% of new people left already in basketball....
Bigger and faster destruction than the 90's.

I don’t recall Bol Bol prizm base going anywhere near 800, I wanna say like 30-35$ was the top average going rate.

Seems like PSA 10 on base cards were hit the hardest, not surprising.

I’m not surprised prices came back to what they were. Think they are still up a bit.

Also, don’t think people are dumping basketball that much. I can NEVER find basketball at retail or the hobby shop. Think maybe the casuals left, but still plenty of interest in basketball from what I can tell.
