The Hoops high voltage 500 volts is an absolutely gorgeous card. See video on how it reacts in the light. I just bought the Stardate Kobe PSA 9 at price shown goodlooking cards without using refractor.
I'm thinking the hobby is about to get a large dose of over supply in the next few years (meaning sellers outnumbering buyers by a big margin)...... I'm not going to run out and buy any time too soon.
Doubt it. More population means they just need to meet the demand and low numbered cards are gonna be harder to pull. As long as sports fans are around and growing as is the population, then there is no way its gonna die out or slow down
Love Kobe my favorite RC of his I own is the 3D rookies showcase from Topps stadium club. When I pulled this card back then I found out there's a special variant called Topps "member choice" I really wanted it but back then that card was my grail to hunt down. I remember seeing the Kobe dunkin go nuts & Star date & few others you shown were priced $20-30 at the Gibraltar trade center here in Michigan. If I only known what I new now 😞
Always appreciate your videos T-Pott! I was picking up some Kobes, psa 9s, then realized everything was dropping so I put on hold picking up anymore. Might be a min before I pick up anymore. Take Care 🤙🏽
I have a nice Kobe collection from when i was a kid up till now along with AI!! My AI is much larger due to prices of kobe but I gotta say my favs are the Stardate which I could of sold at the boom but choose not to its a stunning card in hand along with his base E-X Rc!! One I think u past up was the 00-01 fleer ELEMENTary such a looked over set at 1:48 low pop and stunning design if u look at it at the right angle in good lighting!! Also his 96-97 NBA hoops grants all Rc team are sick looking n tho not # they had a print run of /996 according to Beckett so hard to get!! Could go on n on last one id say the cheapest to is Fleer masters of the hardwood from 99-00!!
cool vid talking kobe cards never gets old, my top 3 in order 1997 toppschrome refractor best kobe image!!, 2003 coast to coast refractor just beautiful, 1998 fleer gold medallion awesome..
I have been trying to figure out which 1996 "rising stars" card is more rare. The blank canvas or with the letter foil?? Let me know if you are reading this.
It depends who you ask. General consensus has been not to expose them to sunlight. However, Jean Arena from Skybox/Fleer (one of the two designers in the 90s) stated that this is not the cause but rather that some batches of acetate just yellowed and others do not.
Great video. I’ll never forget as a kid, opening a box of 96 Skybox Premium and pulling the Kobe New Editions insert. Still have it and it’s my favorite card of him.
Whomever sold it sure had a great happy stroll to the bank, and thanking Covid for those price hikes, we as long time collectors knew that bubble was gonna burst BIG Time... BOOM!!!!!

Yes the 500 volts are probably top 5 best looking inserts from the 90s!

gotta buy rare low pop
Isn't that when you'd want to buy? Especially the rare cards where you'll have multiple available driving the prices down?
Great video and right on time as I am collecting Kobe and I barley started 2 weeks ago
In addition to those cards, like Flair Class of 1996 and the Hoops RC insert with embossed "Rookie" all in gold foil.
The 96 upper-deck spx22 kobe rc die cut w the holo image goes hard
FOR SURE! Thanks for watching!
I like the 1996 skybox hoops Rookie #3. It’s really nice with gold foil.
I have the printing plate of it if you’re interested.
TP, I think you forgot one, the 1996 Topps Draft Redemption Kobe RC. Its such a beautiful and rare card and PSA 10s are only pop 69.
I think I forgot (or didn't have time for) about 2,000 :P Thanks for watching!

I have been trying to figure out which 1996 "rising stars" card is more rare. The blank canvas or with the letter foil?? Let me know if you are reading this.
Both have millions printed
How about 2001 Tchrome Mad Game refractor. PSA 10 small pop count.
Oh YES awesome card. Great call.
If you have the older acetate cards, how do you make sure they do not yellow in the future?

What would a pop 1 from 1996/97 be worth? It's condition rare and not many people know about it.
1996 Press Pass Auto Kobe Beckett 8.5
1998/99 Upper Deck Super Powers Gold /50 Beckett 9
1998/99 Skybox Premium Slam Funk Kobe Beckett 9.5
I have Kobe's rookie card somewhere in my basement, how much money could I get for it?
Need way more info then that like what set for starters!!
I have a kobe bryant card #138 Topps card what is it worth
I wish I can afford 96 E-X2000 Credentials that's a big one 😭
96 upper deck rookie
Before I even get into the video, stop giving away all the secrets. Been having a blast expanding my PSA 9 Kobe RC PC.
Great video. I’ll never forget as a kid, opening a box of 96 Skybox Premium and pulling the Kobe New Editions insert. Still have it and it’s my favorite card of him.
I have a Kobe Bryant rookie card if anybody's looking to purchase it the half the value perfect condition
Which card
I have lots of Kobe Bryant cards to sell.
Don’t be market exit liquidity 😅
I don’t know why someone would ever pay $1.6 million for a Kobe refractor rookie . I knew it was way overpriced at that time .
Whomever sold it sure had a great happy stroll to the bank, and thanking Covid for those price hikes, we as long time collectors knew that bubble was gonna burst BIG Time... BOOM!!!!!
Lol! Sale...or just the price the always should've been...or even still overpriced...lol
Vegas Dave, is that you?
"on sale" hah
Hey...you cant and will never afford a Lambo either...compare apples to apples my friend, and you will not be disappointed
Scam
