the thing with card investing with basketball is that the player that scores more points is always worth more, defense barely matters, just look at rudy gobert cards, invest in cards with people who score more

Do you go to the Dallas card shows?

Great video bro.What do you think of auto cards or jersey worn cards/ both together?Good investment?

You're giving people the raw reality of the hobby. There's a lot of people who don't understand how expensive this hobby can get

Thank you!

Been collecting off and on for 40 years. I only buy raw in person. I only buy psa 9s or 10s off eBay. I only buy hobby. Never retail. But that’s just me.

Haha I mean at that price I guess I'd say yes

If your trying to make the most money most efficiently I would not do breaks/ wax only because it’s a hit or miss and if you buy an expensive team or something there’s a chance you go negative into money

I'd always go for a variation when I can even if it costs a little more

Yeah you're 100% right. I didn't make that distinction, but I was only talking about ultra modern inserts (99% of the focus of new investors)

Greetings mates, Most newbies usually undermine and neglect the importance of technical analysis with regards to trading. Technical analysis overly predicts the movement of assets prices regardless of what is happening in the wider or broader market. Essentially, the education involves studying the paths of a particular asset movement in this past so as to establish a sustainable pattern that can be used to predict future movement of an asset. Doing technical analysis can be quite different which is why most newbies / traders neglect day trading their stocks/ coins and stick to holding which is very dangerous as when the market goes bearish, advise any newbies / traders to buy the dip for traders who are still wondering to enter the market or old time traders who are holders to seek help from not just any trader but an established trading expert with at least 96% trade accuracy .I underwent series of trading loses l'd best not talk about before I was introduced to trading analyst Mr Elvis Hercules My contact with him has been the Pinnacle of this year for me, under his careful guide and his signal service I've been able to recover my losses and even grow my trading portfolio massively from 1.6 BTC to 7 BTC and also from 10k to 67k in stocks ,in just 5 weeks.

Lmao

It's possible! If you believe in him go for it

if u can get 10s yea but 9s are good

Glad you enjoyed! I think you're referring to the guys I said I'd be "taking a look at." I'd still buy Bam Adebayo and Cody Bellinger, but don't think I'd be buying Sancho

I think with how cheap he's gotten yeah maybe. Bought a couple for like $1.50 on starstock for a potential Suns playoff push

I hope u bought some.

@@joseph7571 haha sure did got myself a prizm /199 PSA 9

Bam Adebayo Prizm PSA 9 is around $65 on Ebay right now. If you have less than $100, you cannot afford to really invest in the Jordan and Lebron's of the world. You can certainly make money with raw cards, but with the risks involved that's not personally how I would get started on a small budget.

I'd say I'm a hold. Not sure I'd personally be rushing out to buy RJ right now

How?

If that's your takeaway from this video I don't know what to tell you...lol

The reality is that cards outside of the ones you mentioned go up and down all the time and are very unstable. The sports card market is very volatile. If you can't afford the expensive cards that will definitely hold value, then you have to buy a player and flip them after a couple of months. You have to know know the windows of when to buy and when to sell. For example I bought some Naomi Osaka cards 2-3 months ago and now that she's won the Australian Open, her cards are up 2-3x. Unless you have a Topps Transcendent card of hers (/50 or lower), you have to sell because the other cards are mass printed wont retain value. Even if you want the card, its better to sell at the highs and buy back in the off season when prices return to normal or crash. Honestly sports cards are not the best alternative investment, l'd rather put $100 in bitcoin or another top 5 Crypto to be honest.

@@sp123 awesome. thanks for the reply

P.s. dont buy these new stars nowadays. Buy the legends who actually did something unlike these rookies who gonna be injured in a few years. If u look at football for example. Only cards worth money are Quarterbacks.

You very well could be right!

9s are very under valued. They should be a 3rd of the price of a 10. They are super undervalued right now and honestly if a collector your better off with 9s or even 8s in some cases. Some 9s easily could be cracked and resubmitted and come back a 10.

U know theres a mime trout card that sold for like more than 2 mil easily

You got it!

@@TRIKE415SportsCards 😂😂😂

I ended up selling the PSA 10 for $100🤷

Hadn't heard this, but would be great if they changed their return policy

@@TRIKE415SportsCards yeah its already in order as off 3weeks ago...😉 try and return a card when it gets delivered to you snd ill buy u the box if they let u do it 😂😂

buyers buse sellers on eBay by keeping cards for no risk... then returning if they go down. You deserve what you get.

@@markinnes4264 yup

Reason #1 would be the rated rookie logo I generally prefer cards that have that designation on there Reason #2 would be the fact that he's in his England kit. He won't always be on Dortmund but he'll always be on England

Agree you never hold the card

If you have a big budget then I'd recommend buying parallels, but on a smaller budget I'd stick to base

Didn't say they weren't....

Inserts like Emergent, Freshmen Phenomes and The Rookies (lol) are not rookie cards under the official definition of a rookie card. Rookie cards are only the first year player cards in the base checklist.

@@sp123 Exactly! They also come out on first year players 😒 Rc Just no Rc label!!!

@@johnnylv5452 Rookie cards are only the cards in the base set. patches/memorabilia, and autos are not officially rookie cards, regardless of whether or not it has the RC stamp. Google "Beckett Rookie Card Definition" for more information.

He just said inserts don’t hold the same value
