Risin' up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive
So many times, it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

Is it just me, or do the Stadium Club Members Choice PSA 10 seem undervalued? The pop count is relatively low, so I am thinking of adding one of each. Do you think these will do well long term? I'm just trying to find good value in this crazy market.

Was/is there a post somewhere (a Gary V-type of post) about Shaq cards tonight? My Shaq's are being hit left and right and I'm not sure why! Happy to sell them, but a bit puzzled!

There are a bunch of UD PSA 10s up for auction right now, most of them are already in the $2K range with lots of time left. I don’t see those ending much higher because there are some others up with a BIN just under $3K and those aren’t getting hit.

It also seems like there might be premiums for certain cards that look better in photos, even if they’re all PSA 10s. There’s one up with a BIN of $2600, but the right edge looks pretty rough. That one was probably lucky to grade a 10, so maybe that’s why nobody is buying it yet. Not my auction, check out the photos here:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/313094564068

Here’s another one with a rough left edge, this one honestly looks a lot like the one I subbed recently, so maybe I’ll get lucky and get a 10 too! Also not my auction:

I have quite a few of stadium club RCs and hoops RCs
Is it better to grade them or sell them as a lot?

If they're grade-able (9 or above)...grade them! If not, sell them!

Definitely grade if you think they have a chance to gem. Raw copies of Stadium Club and Hoops go for a couple bucks each, but they’re $100+ in PSA 10. There’s literally like a 50x multiplier for gem mint copies.

Shaq will continue to rise up

His cards will rise up,
They'll rise like the day
they'll rise up,
They'll rise unafraid

they'll rise up.
and they'll do it a thousand times again
they'll rise up,
high like the waves,
they'll rise up
in spite of the ache
they'll rise up

for you -oooo-ooo0-ooo--oooooo
for you -oooo -oooo-ooooo
for you -oooo -ooo

for youooooo


oh they'll rise up
they'll rise like the sun
they'll rise up
we'll have lots of fun
they'll rise up
they'll rise up

I just picked up a PSA 10 of the Topps Beam Team and a PSA 10 Topps Beam Team Gold. These are obviously the ugly, very distant cousin of the Stadium Club Beam Team, but I was surprised by the low PSA population of these in PSA gem mint.

Base: 41 out of 125 total graded
Gold: 18 out of 82 total graded

These have obviously seen recent price increases along with all other Shaq cards, but is there any sort of chance for a larger bump based on these low population numbers?

Busted some more Shaq RC year boxes...Hoops and Fleer. I pulled two Shaqs from the Hoops box and 7 from Fleer (3 base and 4 Slam Dunk subset). Both Hoops rookies looked great, and from Fleer two of the base rookies and one of the Slam Dunks looked grade-worthy. The other 4 Fleer cards were either off-centered or had dinged corners, or both. I just sent all 5 of the Shaqs off to PSA in Jewcer’s group sub today...hoping for some gems!

I still have three 92-93 boxes left...Stadium Club, Topps, and Upper Deck. I’ll probably rip those over the next few weeks.

I bought 19 loose packs of fleer ultra and pulled 3 shaq rookie cards from this lot - they look pretty good and sharp. What made you decide to send yours for grading? With the associated costs, is it worth it? Thanks

I'm sitting on some 1992 Shaquille stuff and I'm debating on getting it graded as well. I have a feeling that A LOT of 1992 Shaquille stuff is sitting around at both PSA and BGS right now due to the price increases, and we are going to see a huge increase of these cards in the coming months. The issue with the 1992 Shaquille Ultra is unless it comes back a PSA 9 or 10, you are going to be out money if you aren't planning on keeping them for yourselves. Even 9's might have you breaking even after Ebay fees/grading cost.

I still think people are sleeping on 90's inserts. Id much rather drop $ on 90's than today's stuff.
