Default Wow, perhaps the sickest collection I've ever seen!!!

Someone on my Facebook group just posted a bunch of pictures of his collection, he stated he hasn't collected cards in over 10 years but still treasures what he already have and refuse to sell or trade any of it. Now we know who's been hoarding all the high end cards from the 2000s and why they never surface for sale. Not surprisingly, its a Asian guy that lives in Asia. There are tons more pictures that what I'm posting here.

Something seems off to me...the guy must have heard about the covid bubble? He just doesn't care that he is sitting on 10s of millions of dollars worth of cards?

Reading his comments, he stated he's not in it for the money, and had a passion collecting players in the 2000s, especially Jordan, Kobe, and Lebron. He seemed to have lost interest after 2010 when Panini took over, but have no desire to sell any of his collection he have. I also thought this might be fake at first but he coined the pictures when folks in chat asked him to. Absolutely crazy, there's lots of 1/1s here, guess they won't end up in any other collector's hands if someone is looking for em.

yeah...I guess if you're already financially secure what is another 10 million. I mean hat off to that guy for being a collector in the truest sense of the word.

Refreshing to see that in this day and age. Also the first facebook comment is hilarious and totally on brand for social media.

I really miss upper deck, though I’d really hate to see breakers today with that type of high end product lying around.

Amazing. Great seeing cards that haven’t shown up for sale the last few years. Some true grails in that collection.

Feel like I've seen some of those mega cards before somewhere.

Way more I think … a random card I see such as the Chris Paul 05-06 Ultimate Logoman Auto RC 1/1 may be his best card ever correct? I don’t think Exquisite had 1/1’s … wonder what that would sell for

What’s that LeBron /23 exquisite sell for nowadays? I know that was what $5+ million before.

Way more than that.

Even from my cursory glance, I saw the following cards:

- MJ Logoman 1/1
- LeBron auto 1/1
- At least 1 LeBron logoman dual auto 1/1
- 03-04 LeBron UD Exquisite RPA /23

Yea I didn't catch the LeBron Exquisite RPA with the gold. Thought it was the /99.

$5M-10M probably in range ...
