My other NBA stuff
![]() Magic Johnson autographed Lakers jersey: ![]() ![]() And more rookie cards, the first 2 cards are all official rookie cards. Back in 1980 rookie cards were printed with the top 3 players in the NBA at the time which is why Larry Bird and Magic Johnson both rookies ended up on the 1 card. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() that is all ![]()

haha nah! Ive being collecting them since i was in primary school. Some i was lucky enough to get in a pack however majority were brought from other collectors when the basketball card boom went south in the late 1990s (around the time Jordan retired AGAIN in 1998) thus making them easier to afford. Way i see it is Jordan cards will never decrease in value and will always hold their own. Just think the Star #101 card above in 20 years time or when Jordan passes away...... $$$ though i would never sell

That is a nice collection.
I have a file full of old baseball cards from the early nineties. Had a few in hard covers that were considered rare (well by primary school standards lol) not sure where they are, but I have my file still. My aunty also collected them and for my 10th birthday gave me over 100 cards. Have not looked through them for ages but at the back of it are also my spider man cards. One day I should see if any I have are worth money. Just had a quick look, my file consits of topps, Skybox, fleer ultra, upper deck, NBA hoops etc. Only Jordan card is a Drexler vs Jordan Skybox showdown series card. I have a few old topps rookie cards, have some cards with really old guys on them etc. Last edited by Spudz27; 06-03-2011 at 07:34 PM. |

I used to be a big fan in the early 90's. Basketball was doing ok in Aus back then...
I've got a MJ card collection from primary school days, I don't think any are really worth much, but I've still got them a folder at home. |

Mate i've got HEAPS of basketball cards still... I'd probably have about 1500 cards
I've got 2 x full sets of Hoops 93/94 (the ones with the little 5th anniversary Gold Symbol) as well as lots of random rare ones... 1st set is about 85% with the gold logo (you only found 1 in each pack) and the 2nd set is about 30% with gold logo I've got an upper deck Jordan card with him in his baseball gear?? I also have 2 x lottery cards - where you could redeem special sets of cards... but I contact Upper Deck when I got them - and they wouldn't redeem to anyone outside of the USA... (i've still got the cards though - so they are unclaimed)... As well as a few other Jordan cards... from over the years... I was a collector of Larry Johnson (#2 Hornets / Grandmama) and also David Robinson (#50 Spurs / The Admiral) My team is the Mavs (big fan of Dirk Nowitzki) but I'm jumping on the Blake Griffin bandwagon...

some nice looking cards there
not wanting to hijack but is there anyone one or anywhere that will buy cards for a decent price, or atleast look at them and value them. i (like most) have a good collection of cads from the early 90's sitting round doing nothing?

Www.Beckett.com or www.beckettgrading.com can't remember which one but basically you pay a fee, send the card to them (USA), they test whether or not it's a fake or genuine (for the rare cards), they grade the card (Aka how sharp corners are etc) then they lock it away in the tamper proof cases you see above in my pics. Closer to 10 the more the card is worth. In the case is the grading details and final score etc
Beckett and another company psa are the best but there are other grading companies out there but dont do half the tests or they give cards 9/10 when they should only be a 7/10. Most people who collect know who those companies are and stay away but people who use these other companies find it hard selling their cards and most of the time don't fetch as much.

They look perfect - but you will notice no 'nike' on them anywhere... Good replica's but not the real thing... You will pay a premium for the real thing - and they are much better....
