I don't have a lot higher value cards, so this is a pretty huge upgrade for me.




Nice job. They key to getting these cross upgrades is to bust them out and send them in raw. If PSA knew it was in a BGS 9 holder, it would have been a quick no-look rejection.

Congratulations on the pick-up, especially at that price!

I remember picking up an 8.5 in 2020 or 2021 for $1,350 and moving it in the summer of 2021 for $2200.

I always planned to buy back into one, and with prices where they're currently at, I think I might just have to. Such a bargain value for a nice serial-numbered LeBron true RC.

Thanks man! Yeah I've always been fond of this card..just always assumed it was a little pricey because of the lower serial number..it still kinda was..but still within my budget!

Nice, I got one too. You can't beat a numbered LBJ rookie.

Small batch of stuff I have been able to cross off the checklist!
2019 Court Kings Le Cinque Piu Belle


Flux Full Capacity


2012 Adrenalyn XL London
This was inserted into the Adrenalyn game packs and is very limited. I love it because it is one of the only Olympic branded cards featuring Lebron. POP 2


2012 Panini Past & Present Shattered (Black)
It is a POP 2 and one of my favorite cards from early Panini.


2020 Contenders Optic Pandora (First year/edition)


2022 Obsidian Neon Flood (First year/edition)


I love Mosaic 8's and I have added a few more Genesis to the PC. I hope they drop even more so I can add another 10-20.
2019 Mosaic 8 Genesis


2019 Optic Star Gazing 1/1 (and rainbow)

Finally picked up the xfractor. Last "realistic" one I need is the Green X, which I can only find 10s for sale. Bit out of my price range. I'd even settle for an 8

Default Lebron James Showoff thread!

Still a Pop 1! As far as I can tell, 8 of the 10 have been graded. BGS 8.5, 9, and 9.5, 2 PSA 9s, an 8, and my 10, and one SGC 9. I’m thinking about testing the market on it. May be my best LeBron non-rookie

Quick question for you LeBron collectors - are there any cards in the past few years that match up with the 2004 Topps card?



I'm less concerned about what the actual card is, and more looking for something that matches the angle of the photo and dunk.

The 2020-21 Prizm is pretty close and the 2021 Panini Instant #60 might work. If you have any others I'd love to hear them. Thanks!
