    Victor, I absolutely LOVE the "stars rating". To me if its in the base set it should be considered a "rookie card" however some are GREATER than others and I would agree that the first should be considered the TRUE rookie cards but the others are lesser rookie cards but still rookie cards. Thanks again for a great video!

    I personally enjoy hoops ..I am shocked how low some of the numbered cards are.
    My favorite of the 9 Victor RC cards excluding any parallels are:
    1) Prizm
    2) Hoops
    3) Court Kings

      Not yet. But I will do a part two to this video later this summer. I'm wondering isn't the My House an insert card? Typically, inserts do not qualify for a True RC designation.

    How do you figure Prizm Draft Picks is not properly licensed? Also the DP cards are nicer than the Prizm cards because of the curtain

    • @true_rcs
      @true_rcs  2 місяці тому +1

      Players Association definition of a rookie card states that the player should be on a pro level roster. Also, takes two licenses one by the league NBA and the other by the PA. Collegiate product has a collegiate license therefore my view is that it disqualifies it 👍🏽

    Are Topps “RC” Wemby cards going to be the only ever “RC” autograph cards? Since Panini couldn’t get his autograph

    • @true_rcs
      @true_rcs  Місяць тому +1

      Unfortunately yes. Although it won't be fully licensed thus affecting its true RC status. Once the Panini license expires we'll have to see how the market reacts to the fully licensed autos but they won't be from his rookie year. It's a shame really!

    How come you you don't like Topps chrome

    • @true_rcs
      @true_rcs  13 днів тому

      Hi Andy! I’m assuming you’re referring to 2023-24 Topps Chrome. I have an entire video giving my reasons. But it really comes down to Fanatics strong arm business tactics, not a fan of the Players Association reneging on their contract with Panini either, whole thing seems corrupt. Also, not fully licensed therefore falls a bit short for a true RC designation.
      Other than that I really do enjoy Topps Chrome overall.

  • @johnrodriguez6480
    @johnrodriguez6480 5 місяців тому +3

    I personally think people are sleeping on Topps NOW and Panini Instant cards (especially rookie year cards)
    Limited runs of iconic moments and pictures of said iconic moments used for the card. Seems like it would have great upside in long term value over time.

    What do you think of the Victor Wembanyama Panini Silver Marketing NSCC Promo. It is said to be the very first card of Wemby in Spurs uniform. Do you consider that as the true rookie card?

    • @true_rcs
      @true_rcs  4 місяці тому +1

      I do not. Typically, these are regional issues created for a specific event, so promos for stadium giveaways, event giveaways and the like do not qualify for a true rc designation. Still a great card to own don't get me wrong but an RY designation is more appropriate. Thanks for tuning in 👍🏼

    Thank you

    • @true_rcs
      @true_rcs  4 місяці тому

      Very cool! Hello Vinny from France! I typically look at the North American sports card market. Of course athletes can have versions of other cards from other countries but I would for example refer to them as "Victor's French rookie" or Ohtani's Japanese rookie.
      Other markets are typically ambiguous to the North American market. Maybe things will change in the future. As far as stickers go, these historically speaking have never been considered true rookie cards. We make clear distinctions between stickers and trading cards.
      Most collectors prefer trading cards because that's typically what is readily available to us. Sticker market has not done very well here.

    Bro I just gotta say, this and all your videos I've been watching recently has help me tremendously. For someone like myself who just turned 45 and been out of the hobby for at least 30 yrs, stopped collecting around the age of 15, this stuff is very helpful. Talk about being lost when seeing all these cards they have now. The question I had immediately was, what do I even collect? The itch of collecting came back after watching some videos and remembering how awesome this hobby was when I was a kid and wanted to enjoy the hobby again. But this time with my 12 yr old son who loves basketball and has some cards of his own. Had to do research just to figure out which brands I should even consider to help guide my son as well. At least with your method of the true rookie card breakdown, it gave me a more calm feeling and a somewhat better understanding of how to collect and pursue some rookie cards. I look at as a good start into the hobby, just like the RC is the start of a players career. So I do value this information your providing on this. Very much appreciated. Now the question I have is, after watching this great video about Wembanyama, how would anyone find out about a players rookie card in like the earlier years? I'm looking at a few players from the 90s in the NBA and NFL. You said how NBA hoops is the flagship card, because of the history and being the 1st release every year into the new NBA season, but how does that apply to a player from the late 90s when topps and fleer had the license for NBA as well if I'm not mistaken? How would I know who was the flagship at that time and what were the release dates of those? Would love to see a video like this on Tracy McGrady who has IMO some pretty good looking RCs and a player I loved to watch. Obviously 97-98 everyone just focuses more on Tim Duncan. Which deservingly so. But T-Mac was special. Sorry for the long comment, but would love to hear your feedback and know that you have a new subscriber and will be looking into purchasing your new book. Congrats, by the way. Will it be coming to Barnes & Noble as well? Thanx again and take care.

      Woohoo! Welcome aboard and welcome back to this great hobby of ours. So exciting to hear your story thanks for sharing! You ask a good question, so in how I do things 2006 was the dawn of a new era with the Player's Association brining regulation to manufacturers. Prior to that I still recommend using Beckett magazine to determine RCs. I do not like to re-write history, they were the go to of the hobby between 1984-2004. So I would recommend picking a copy up for the years you mentioned. Hey thanks for tuning in!

    NBA Hoops is Panini just like Prizm. The reason Prizm is considered flagship is of the scope of the design of the parallels. When it comes out has no bearing whatsoever on flagship status. They bring out Prizm Draft picks before because it’s the least value of all of their products. So you can argue that they are bringing their lowest products out first to wet out beaks. I would also argue that Select was nicer this year than Prizm with the JCPenny Curtain. And so far Photogenic is the most premium product this year by far!
