I just wanted to say that you're a great asset to the hobby. Your passion and excitement for the hobby is what a lot of collectors lost in the past few years. Glad to see you putting positive energy into the hobby.
One reason to buy more Kobes is unlike the living legends, Kobe isn't going to say anything controversial that will take away from his popularity. D Wade just said people hated Miami's big 3 because they were black? Kareem went all out attacking unvaccinated players? players get arrested, demand trades and do all kinds of things that can ruin or devalue their name from here on out. Kobe will hold value as long as this hobby exists.
In the modern age, that's no longer actually true... an old deleted tweet that someone randomly found a screenshot of, women start coming out saying they were sexually assualted (particularly relevent here) or he was cheating on his wife for years, etc... all those things are possible now-a-days. I persoanlly like Kobe and he is most likely "safer" than a majority of professional atheletes who are still alive, but playing a bit of devil's advocate here, in that your argument isn't actually correct. I certainly wouldn't let the fact that he's dead be a deciding factor in buying a Kobe card, which is essientially what you're saying. Or any card for that matter.
Wait... That 2017 Fleer Spider Man Gold at 5:16 has an "Mike Baker Authenticated" sticker on it... explain to me how a 1/1 is being rated as "in the top X% of the cards", when the card itself is 100% of the cards that exist? Who would even think to send their 1/1 into that service? And why tf would you want to? Soooo many questions now, when I had none before. Thanks for the content, SCI!
I remember passing on a shaq rookie, it was his first year in the league and I was skeptical, wish I wouldn't have been. Show that pack battle, that's a video in its own, keep on rippin my man!!
What about centering on older cards? For example a 1948 leaf Babe Ruth card. Since cutting the cards back then was not as easy to get a great centered card, so does it matter as much on older cards?
I recently bought a 1996 ultra PSA 8 Kobe rookie for 50 bucks! Pretty happy with it and I'll be looking for more Jordan and Kobe cards! This was my first Kobe rookie.
Marvel/ Spiderman cards reminds me of NFTS Just hype rasing the value but Id rather have a Herbert RPA just like I'd rather have a Real House instead of a picture of one
Whoever can start a national card show tour that goes from big city to big city, every couple weeks in a new city,, is going to be the next king of sports cards..
So I used to collect cards when I was a kid for fun (not knowing why some people collected). I Stuck them in binders and whatnot, as I got older I gave up the hobby. Now I’m older and seeing cards true value I’m getting back into the card collecting, I don’t even know where to begin. I don’t understand how to even value cards or what cards are worth and what to collect. I’ve tried watching UA-cam videos and gained some knowledge. But if anyone has any tips or any good suggestions please let me know! For example I have cards that aren’t on eBay and in my mind I think are valuable but I don’t know how to “value” them.
SELLER: "I'm not sure why its a 9. It's as close to a 10. I cant see any flaws." BUYER: *immediately Turns the card around* "I think the centering on the back is off" SELLER: "That could be it. The back's off. ...yeah. the back's off." He seemed to figure the off center back the same time as SCI. Maybe he got the card right before he met SCI 😒
@Ozsportscard 2 wow. Didn't know it had lost That much value recently. Im not going to lie, I appreciate him making the deals & content but what I don't like is the gall of the seller to say that, on camera, whilst him knowing very well why the card could be knocked down. Ofcourse you can highlight positives & potential but hiding an obvious flaw seems dishonest. Imagine if SCI didn't turn the card round, the guy would've kept quiet about the back.
@Ozsportscard 2 oh totally agree he's overpaying a lot. 99% of all cards will likely continue to go down for quite some time. There's no reason for most cards to turn around and go back up
Great pick up Geoff, you must have arrived there very late, you can see how the show really was in the beginning here: ua-cam.com/video/WoWRaMdd__Y/v-deo.html
Man you're overpaying on a lot of these cards in every video. Yea cards are cheaper now vs. last year but that's because they were never worth anywhere near what they were selling for. Most big cards will likely continue to go down you're better off just hanging out on the sidelines and buying back in down the road you would likely save a lot.
😀l am so happy my financial life has totally changed ever since I ventured into stock investment. Ive been earning over $18,000 dollars every single week.

He’s too schmoozy…. No body is spending money like him .
It’s a weird flex to me

What about his r*pe allegations, which he settled out of court, paying to woman off with millions

One reason I don’t invest in Lebron is because I am not a fan of his political views and how he acts. I will only buy him if it’s a no-brainer.
I’m sure Kobe won’t say anything controversial #NoDisrespect

I figured the crowd there would be solid. A lot of card people in the area LA needs to have a regular show.
Vince is way underrated. Love that card! His stock would be way different if he had played in one spot like Kobe or Dirk.
I remember passing on a shaq rookie, it was his first year in the league and I was skeptical, wish I wouldn't have been. Show that pack battle, that's a video in its own, keep on rippin my man!!
Good call on Vince. I’ve been looking at his cards too
I got into cards because of you and I love it and make profit almost every day. Keep it up!

Jeff's love of Kobe inspired him to complete his Rainbow of Chyna James, China's greatest basketball warrior.
Keep doing what you doing your awesome with getting these youngters to feel the passion and the love for the hobby
Those hulk pmgs were for sure my dream cards
The LeBron card, the back is way off. That should be an 8. The front is also off at the bottom. A 9 psa is very generous.
Come to the Long Beach Collectibles Expo at the end of this month! It’s in Long Beach CA
I recently bought a 1996 ultra PSA 8 Kobe rookie for 50 bucks! Pretty happy with it and I'll be looking for more Jordan and Kobe cards! This was my first Kobe rookie.
4:15 show some respect for the 1982 Wrestling All-Stars Series A. Those cards are legendary!!!
Legend has it the guy at 0:32 is still saying welcome
I'm surprised you've never covered the 96 Topps Finest Rookies, at least to my knowledge. Those are my favorites.
karlos is awesome, he bought one of my Jordans a couple years ago. good guy to deal with

Then you are ignorant LOL
Why are you leaving UA-cam 😞
Hi big fan of you
Yeah, I highly doubt that a 2017 Spiderman card would sell for $2M.
@@gametimegallery7661 I highly doubt you can get more than 6 subscribers in a year lol
E-Topps Kobe cards are good buys, especially his first three Etopps cards.
etopps anything!! they're short printed, usually numbered, beautiful shine!
Glendale would be good too!!!
where you getting all this money?
Geoff, great content once again. It reminded me of the 90's when large card shows were all the buzz in the hobby. Great pick up's as well.

I will never buy a Kobe for the same reason I wouldn't buy an OJ Simpson card
Wow it’s so nice sports card show and thanks for the video clip
What a good idea from Stephanie, confidence is such a important thing thats difficult to teach and often overlooked.
THOSE MARVEL PMG'S ARE 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Great video. That Vince Carter has a pop 34 now .
One day ill be able to fly around the country to go to a card show whenever and wherever i please. Nice vid Geoff
Another great video, good job SCI team

The green miles morales is 🔥
I love the marvels cards can someone tell me more about them are they just base or what are they
No videos from the 2022 Denver Sports Card Show??? SCI must not have liked it here in Colorado! 😂
Hey Jeff I just got a Justin Jefferson snake skin but it is
a sgc 8.5 . If you get to me that would be great
My friend got a stain glass card of Kobe. In 2020 he had it on the web for $7.5K. K[be passed away 2 weeks later so he up it to $10K.
How do I get more info on card shows?
Hey, I have the Molten GG7X Original onhand. Maybe you might get interested. It's still New. Never been used is Basketball court.
Whats the difference between a 0-pee-chee wayne gretzky rookie and a topps wayne gretzky rookie ? is there a better one to buy ?
nice pickups with the Lebron and Vince Carter
There is a bronxe PMG in 2017 /199. He's missing that
thank you
Love all your content your a boss...keep them vids coming very enjoyable 😉
Economy so bad even sports card investor is trying to get some trade action in lol
This was my first card show, & it was so much fun… definitely going again
Kareem needs more respect
lebron gold is def top heavy hence the 9, still a nice pick up
Awesome pickups! 🔥🔥🔥
bros shirt is too small
great video jeff! who was the vendor that had the PMGs? Thank you
I really want to start but I am only ten and haven’t got any money to do it
What happened to your sleeves?
Curious, where did this guy make all his money from?
Investing in business
Sports card investor and the market movers app needs a much larger database it’s so small 75% of my cards aren’t in. Why is it all current cards!
Thought for sure it was going to be a will griere or drew lock.
is dwight howard a good buy?
Love that Vince Carter ! Next time your in canada be sure to bring it haha. Great video as always SCI.
Nice show mate!!!!!!
My Lebron Topps chrome also has the same off center back. Love the Vince Carter Dunkin go nuts card it's my favorite 90's insert cards.
This card goes for around $8.4K now. Ouch.
Star Co basketball on the rise!
One of those days.
Good lord! The centering is way off! Can’t believe the guy said he wasn’t sure why it wasn’t a 10. LOL!!
Kaboom Gold Herbert 😍
So much for getting a nice Kobe…
I wish I had a Tom Brady card or a graded card
Great pick up Geoff, you must have arrived there very late, you can see how the show really was in the beginning here: ua-cam.com/video/WoWRaMdd__Y/v-deo.html
🔥🔥🔥
That LeBron gold is not 10. You have to use mathematical eyes and the centering alone is not there
The Spider-Man is wayyyyyyyy overvalued. Rather use that capital to buy more Kobes
Idk Spider-Man will always be around and he’s marvels Michael Jordan.
where was the vintage????
when we were kids we traded in poker games
Who in 2024 it caziy been 1 year 😢
$12,000? Small potatoes, who cares? I watch this channel for 12 million dollar deals.

The spider man cards weren’t all that unbelievable at all actually. Rarity and all, ehhh…
To each their own I guess
Dude is full of it
Great episode.
How can there be a gold Spiderman 1 of 1....and the guy in the other video had one????
Was thinking the same but then thought he meant that he brought it to the show🤷♂️

Spider Man PMGs??? For only $2M??!!! Wow Geoff. Sign me up.

The curry nameplate is not from a rookie year jersey it is actually an unaffiliated jersey please don’t call non game worn cards game worn. #nomisinformationplz
Nice
Can we see football vids and WAAAAAYYY less basketball vids. That is a dying sport.
Basketball does not move the needle and I’m surprised that many men over age 35 even buy nba.
Hold on to your gold kaboom Herbert.
I have some terrible news for you. That WAS his gold. 😅
