MOJO of my Life!!! Lebron James the King!!!

[MagicJohnson]

All just wanted to share my personal pull of the lifetime!

Coming from Europe buying basketball cards was always quite a hassle. High import costs on a reduced market availabilty and no physical store let me pause the hobby a bit. However game changed with Dacardworld opening a store in the Netherlands a few months ago. I bought only one pack(!) of Skybox as most of the boxes are heavily priced since a few years already now (another reason to pause).
So I opened the pack in the store and could not believe my eyes…I saw green!!!!!! I always wanted to pull one of those in the 90‘s but it was quite an impossible one of course. When I was finally at the card in the pile and looked at the player The King came visible! And that not enough: number 6of10!!! jsy numbered and the retro version even

Who wants to see the break I have it on video even. I ulpoaded it on my tiktok:

The card was directly graded at becket an next suprise: A SOLID 9! For a PMG this feels like a 11 as condition are in the pack alread pretty bad usually.

I try to attach the card and hope it works (my first post here).

The card is for sale on PWCC sunday weekly ongoing so pls no trade or sell questions. I can provide the link via PM if you want to follow the auction though.


In general it feels very hard to sell this card but I need to get my PC going so the cash is needed for the big autos of HOF.

Oh and rest of the cards of the pack are still available if interested!

So you posted this thinking nobody would call you out for opening a pack on video, mysteriously removing the pack from the shot with the cards in hand and magically pulling a LeBron green?

Keep going...

Why should I do this? My first answer to a post ever and directly someone just searching a place to share hate…hope that is not usual here in the board. The video was made for a good friend that is living far away now and earlier collected with me. Wnated to have him taking part when opening a pack after years. So honestly I did not take care if this was visible on video or not as I did not expect a huge pull…but think what you want in the and these cards in the packs and the chance to pull one is in the end the same if you by a box or pack or whatever. It can be in or it is not.

I wish you well.

No gods no masters.

God Bless.

Did you make a website for it yet? Not officially a "hit of a lifetime" until you do...

Cool card though - I would love to pull a PMG but don't really open Metal Universe as it seems those are literally the only cards really worht anything

Yeah, honestly I had not looked that up before. I just bought it out of emotional connection to the „good old times“ and as it was with „only“ round 25 euros per pack easy to buy. Box prices were insane

So I see people post this sort of response all the time. Genuine question - what's the point of someone doing that? What do people think the OP has to gain by doing that?

People said the same thing about the dude's video on the LBJ Exquisite RPA. Odds are he's not selling that card, so why would anyone think someone has something to gain by making a fake video?

I honestly want to know - maybe I'm just naive.

[jmmintz]

That said - I'm pretty sure there's a section on here to spam items you're trying to move that aren't available for sale here, so I think this needs to get moved.

[MagicJohnson]

Yes was a mistake, I reached out already to an admin like two hours ago to ask to move it into the correct break section. This is indeed not about the sell but about sharing the break result, and the happiness too people that really love the hobby as much as I do since more than 25years.

But I agree…really do not understand what this faking does deliver. I am just really really happy as you can believe :-) sadly that these pulls do not happen more often but of course would loose there power….still remember my first Jordan auto and the feeling I had when saw it :-)

if this isn't about the sale....why did you specifically BOLD this card is for sale. be better.

Simple answer…was not into a lot of Pm explaining that I do not sell here or trade this card.

Can we talk about the beautiness of this card instead and the coolness of the 90s set instead. Where are the passionated collectors?
The two american guys from dacard went crazy when they saw the pull. I mean they just opened the shop and this was the first big pull

[90sbasketballin]

Beautiful card, OP. I'm happy for you and hope that you can land a nice sale on it.

[MagicJohnson]

Thanks mate! Appreciate. Would not be sad about it as the decision to sell did hurt enough. However at the moment looks more like a steal for someone. :-) But I need to get a Jordan Trilogy auto focus 05-06 to complete the set and also some autos from more expansive Hall of famers that sign seldom only

To build traction for a sale. He literally listed the card for sale, this isn't a showoff thread, he's just trying to promote it.
