Dad sounds like a clown.

What an idiot.

ninjabum87 · 02-27-2025, 02:21 PM

What a fckin turd. That kid wasn't old enough to make that decision so you know the dad just saw $$ in his eyes. That would have been a really dope jersey to get framed with the picture and kept until the kid was an adult, but he just wanted to profit.

He should be responsible for his actions instead of irresponsible. He effectuated the consignment therefore he should stop trying to wiggle out of his agreement.

Dad must have been a breaker boi.

Lost it all on fifteen cases of NT spurs team spots.

Padre was definitely gunning for the 911 w/ tech package.

Ain't no way he was finna settle for the 718 Cayman after dragging his son through the Elian Gonzalez media tour.

Take the 73K and put it in the kid's college fund

Exactly. Even at a conservative return, it would more than double by the time the kid is in college.

I think the thing the Dad regrets is the timing of the auction. He probably feels like is sold for a lower amount than it would have due to Wemby being out for the year. If the jersey was given back to him, it would just go back up for sale next season. I’m a little surprised any athlete gives away a jersey these days. Most end up with Goldin within a few weeks.

Maybe it's because I see them around a lot but I'm coming more around to the idea that the topps chrome auto will be wemby's definitive rookie auto card

Unlicensed card will never be.

Nice karma for this collector.

Apparently, the pack with the $10k king snake Wemby was replacement for a 2015-16 NT Patch Auto redemption the collector waited 9 years for.

Durantula · 03-26-2025, 09:43 AM

I thought prices would go down more but no cheap Wemby Autos out there. Maybe some steals will be available come summer time.

Nomad · 03-26-2025, 11:57 AM

How long did it take for Zion prices to become cheap? Are they really cheap considering his diminished potential? You can multiply that with Wemby.

Bcr · 03-26-2025, 01:19 PM

People aren't willing to take a loss yet, especially when they already payed way more than they should have in the first place. The offseason will probably show some softening, but Wemby is still the NBA's shiny new toy. Another highly touted prospect will come in and take his spot eventually.

You're right and we'll see some of that this year when Cooper Flagg cards start to come out but long term (assuming he can play and the blood clots aren't a chronic issue) Wemby is still a crazy level of prospect

He's been doing unprecedented stuff since his rookie year

Also comparing Zion to Wemby is pretty insane, Zion clearly has very little intrinsic motivation and he shows that by his lack of willingness to get in shape, so because of that it's basically been one disappointing year after another

Nomad · 03-26-2025, 01:51 PM

Im only comparing Wemby to Zion in the way that collectors were so wedded to him for so long, after the Pels started to slide and disperse assets.

I would personally buy Victor if his price came down, but they won't. I mean unless the whole economy tanks, but that's relative.
