A very useful video - I'm into investing in sports cards, but still a noob in doing so; bought cards for wrong reasons, sold those at a loss, and try to reset my strategy.
When he wins a ship. Retires. Dies or makes the hof. Even then its not a guarantee but the balls have a buzz and if his career pans out he'll be a good pick. Just my opinion. No time will tell.
Considering there are only 2 PSA 10 graded O-Pee-Chee Gretzky rookies this is awesome! You always wonder who owns certain cards that are super rare, and here is one of two!
This is so crazy i remember seeing a news story about card collecting/ investing saying it was dead as disco i jus cant see lonzo rookie cards making money this is like the stock market up n down a Tatum Jah Morant n Zion yeah ok but not 100 200 crazy as hell bro
@David Martin don't know about that I know Apple stock is pretty high right now and if u got in on the ground floor before their IPO u might have made way more money than cards
Thanks so much for the insight and advice on how to properly invest in cards. My son and I enjoy collecting for fun, but I always had an interest in actually collecting for investment. Your podcast is exactly what I have been searching for in gaining the the baseline knowledge in how to start investing in sports cards correctly. Greatly appreciated!
Great information! Im new to the hobby and took Gary V’s advice to do 40-50 hours of research. I literally have watched about a dozen of your videos in the past week! Thanks for the help!
I know nothing of sports cards, just gave a large box that I had picked up at the Goodwill years ago to my neighbor, they were from someone's card collection. I just assumed there was nothing of importance in the box, not saying baseball cards are not important, but you know, as resell!
Great point about the spreadsheet to stay disciplined with your card investments. I've used them myself for years since I used to be such an impulse buyer - rarely got burned but when you are investing every number you pay matters. As an investor, I don't know if you've ever checked out thePit.com. it's a great platform that not only beats eBay prices on a lot of hot cards, but if you just buy to flip, they let you store the cards for no charge. It's a lot like ComC but no transaction fee or storage fees. If they don't list a card, and it's a hot one that sells often on eBay, they'll usually add it. They also have sealed product. Let me know what you think of it.
Great information to share out there. Very useful and don't bother with the doorknob demanding to see your Lonzo Ball collection. Keep up the good work 👍🍻
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed the video, just found your channel. Looking forward to your older videos as well as your new content going forward. I subbed you.
Wish you'd say what you bought those lonzo graders as u go thru them... just to know.. I'm new to this, and collected as a kid.. Really like your channel tho, professional :)
In your opinion What Rookie is the top Baseball Rookie to invest in outta the 2019 season? Great video by the way it's very informative. Please keep them coming I'm loving the free education.
How long do you plan on keeping the Lo Ball’s before you sell? I like Jason Tatum- I think he has a chance at getting into the HOF. He has a good coach and good GM.
Joseph p the PSA 10 Lebron James rookie Topps or Topps Chrome In my opinion if one can afford it is the best investment in sports card today . For me that is the card to have .
Joseph p yea anything between $1,300 & $1,400 is what you gonna pay today but I’m sure once the season starts we’re gonna see a jump on it again . That card to me is like the 86 fleer MJ it’s just going to go up with time and never come down in value . I’m hoping to get 1 soon before they take another jump .
Memorabilia Madness M&M I agree 💯. I got one 2 months ago for 1100$. I’m going to the show tomorrow, hoping to get 4 more. I’m gonna hold long term. I’m late to the party as usual. I’m just worried that if the stock market crashes like its suppose to. I’m tired of waiting though
I actually still like him. Pelicans had a disappointing bubble but they were hot before the season paused originally. Lonzo + Zion will be a good combo for a while to come.
Hello that was a really good video and knowledge it really is a good investment people might say it's waste of time but I say start collecting now now now because you may have jackpots in your cards and what is your eBay user name to find you?
What’s the big deal with Prizm? That’s all people talk about and the cards don’t even look that good and the prices to buy a box of cards is outrageous and I have been collecting for years never seen such high prices on every product.
how do you know Lamelo is a good investment? he is super new to the game. also what makes you say Lonzo is a very bad choice he is also new? not disagreeing just curious (:
@@treytrewhella263 you are correct about melo being new so I’m deff assuming he’s going to be good but Lonzo has been in the league for a few years now and has deff been a bust for the number pick he was.
Great episode. I like the investing in players, but I think more of investing in opportunity. For example Panini First Off the Line Products are a great investment! With exception of baseball, you get a 25% to 300% return on buying a box of FOTL and selling it. Assuming you understand FOTL. Another great investment, always buy Prizm BASKETBALL retail. IF it is Basketball Prizm in a Target, WalMart or gas station, buy it. Doesn't make a difference year etc. Same is true with Bowman Baseball retail, not as much upside as Prizm Basketball, Bowman Baseball retail is a great buy. Why? These products are price controlled and have amazing upside potential and great resell value. I'd love to hear your opinion on the newer flashy products. Prizm Basketball and NT Basketball are Capt. Obvious. What about Contenders, Draft Contenders, Baseball Prizm, etc. I think you could do an episode on the products and which to stay away from like Draft Contenders, Prizm Baseball, etc. Panini Obsidian Basketball was very popular release this year, but as investor, I would stay away. I would rip and flip, but don't hold new products. Great tips on buying. I agree. Tracking cost is important. People love to brag about the money they make, buy you will lose too. Tracking lose is good to learn and good to balance your profits. Also I suggest WatchCount for comps. Ziggy No
I really detest the entire Ball family. Part of cards is public opinion, and I just don't think he has the "like-able" factor that will help the long-term value of his cards. Good luck with it though.
His card is definitely dropping more and more, so this may be a good opportunity. But I believe he may need to get traded or go to another team that can build around him. Great content! Thanks!
So if you're looking at these cards simply as an investment, isn't it bad not to diversify your portfolio? Like you wouldn't want to buy as much of 1 unproven stock as possible and nothing else. Especially athletes. Ball could become the next Greg Oden or Emmanuel Mudiay and you're screwed. He could blow out a knee, developed a coke habit or get arrested with a gun and boom, hes done and your cards are worth nothing. This reminds me or when I was a kid and was convinced Todd VanPoppel was going to be a star. I found a shoebox full of those 20 years later.
Can't believe you think Lonzo has any shot of lasting in the NBA, let alone stating you think he'll be an all star. He shoots 41% on free throws, you can't fix him. He's markelle fultz Yips bad. To compare him to Tatum and Donovan Mitchell is asinine. Mitchell is a top 10 player in the league. Lonzo will never even be top 100; he can't shoot for shit and you can't teach that.
Well you can tea h someone to shoot smart guy it happens everyday. If you knew anything about sports you can't teach size & speed. Everything else is a skill that can be taught. When you made this weak comment he hadn't started hitting his shots showing his new form off. So this is the part where you eat crow... 😜
Lonzo can't stay healthy even as a young man, how you think he is going to do once he starts getting some wear and tear on him from years of playing at high intensity league? Buying his cards is not smart investing, it's a big gamble because not only is he never healthy but his scoring sucks when he is playing. My thoughts are first let me see him stay healthy, then let me see him with 2 seasons of better stats than what he has done so far. Yes his cards may be a little higher if those 2 happen but if he is as good as you think he is then there will be potential for it to go up even more. LeBron don't want to play with him and LeBron wants to win. I don't like LeBron personality but I know his work ethic and what he expects out of teammates so if he is willing to ship off Lonzo that tells me everything I need to know about him.
@@bitcoinisfreedom5265 I think this guy bought a bunch of Lonzo rookie cards before he choked and is now trying to trick people into investing into him so he can sell his inventory.
Bro honesty I like his channel but the way he talking is like he trying to cover up his addiction by sounding logical but there’s just so many he bought 😂

Sports Card "Investor" : Buys dozens of Lonzo Ball cards at the peak of the market. Woof!
A very useful video - I'm into investing in sports cards, but still a noob in doing so; bought cards for wrong reasons, sold those at a loss, and try to reset my strategy.
This didn't age well. "Lonzo Ball will have as good of a career as those guys" (Tatum and Mitchell). hahah missed that one
Buy tom brady rookies or early upper deck and topps on card autos. For baseball 90s inserts like 93 reflectors and 96 mirrors golds and blues
Say for Lonzo everything plays out the way it seems according to logistics, when do you feel a good time for a return on that investment would be?
When he wins a ship. Retires. Dies or makes the hof. Even then its not a guarantee but the balls have a buzz and if his career pans out he'll be a good pick. Just my opinion. No time will tell.
Considering there are only 2 PSA 10 graded O-Pee-Chee Gretzky rookies this is awesome! You always wonder who owns certain cards that are super rare, and here is one of two!
I’m also a Lonzo collector. Your collection is insane!!!! New sub!
How’s that Lonzo stash doing today? Lol. We win some and lose some!

Lonzo Ball ? I got confused with LaMelo... Lonzo ? LOL LMFAO
Any analytics tools for football predictives? Like how you're using fivethirtyeight for basketball?
Just found your channel and I liked & subbed. Looking forward to future videos (& going through your older ones). Thanks for sharing.
You didn’t say Hellooo Sports Card Investors!!! That’s the best part! Keep up the great work!
🤣😂🤣😂
So for us commoners... Does this apply when you can only afford base optic and prizm? If so will this be worthwhile in your opinion?
I know nothing of sports cards, just gave a large box that I had picked up at the Goodwill years ago to my neighbor, they were from someone's card collection. I just assumed there was nothing of importance in the box, not saying baseball cards are not important, but you know, as resell!

New to the channel. Thanks for the free education. Looking forward to more broadcast. Ty
What do you think of LaMelo Ball
Thanks for sharing your know how!! This video was extremely helpful.
Great information to share out there. Very useful and don't bother with the doorknob demanding to see your Lonzo Ball collection.
Keep up the good work 👍🍻
What app do you like to get notified on eBay for new listing?
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed the video, just found your channel. Looking forward to your older videos as well as your new content going forward. I subbed you.
This video gotta sting more and more as another season goes by and injuries and mediocre play has Lonzo’s stock continuing to sink
at what point do you start selling certain players?
What actions can be taken if a card you ordered on eBay was shipped and marked as delivered but didn’t show up in the mail?
PWCC is a bad word but Brent says thanks for the plug.
I also buy vintage baseball cards pre 1970’s. I’m sure I’m not the only one.
I really like your advice! Thanks for the videos!
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander for me is a must buy
This is really helpful! I just got back into the hobby and was thinking about investing but didn’t know how to start. Thank you 🙏🏾
Good stuff! Thanks for the advice.
Thank you

I love Alonzo Mourning. Big collector
Dewey Oxburger ....I might be selling some on eBay aust soon, Look at freight forward from aus to US.

Nice video keep it up!
I love your insight thank you so much
This is great!
How long do you plan on keeping the Lo Ball’s before you sell? I like Jason Tatum- I think he has a chance at getting into the HOF. He has a good coach and good GM.
I'm loving this!!
Dude just found your channel, no idea how I didn’t find it sooner!
What’s a fair price for lonzo psa10 silver at the national ? Also what u think of psa10 Topps Labrons rookie?????
Joseph p the PSA 10 Lebron James rookie Topps or Topps Chrome In my opinion if one can afford it is the best investment in sports card today . For me that is the card to have .
Memorabilia Madness M&M I agree. What’s a fair price. Seems to be about 1400. Price won’t stand still
Joseph p yea anything between $1,300 & $1,400 is what you gonna pay today but I’m sure once the season starts we’re gonna see a jump on it again . That card to me is like the 86 fleer MJ it’s just going to go up with time and never come down in value . I’m hoping to get 1 soon before they take another jump .

Joseph p ... I’m 🙏🏽 for a crash so I can scoop up everything at rock bottom prices 🤣
what do you think of lonzo now?
I actually still like him. Pelicans had a disappointing bubble but they were hot before the season paused originally. Lonzo + Zion will be a good combo for a while to come.
Good info. Thanks!
Greating from here in the Philippines...
Love the videos, but cannot buy into your Lonzo theory. Is there any other player with a 12-6-6 stat line that people are trying to buy now?
Your missing that he is a low risk in that he can get the relatively cheap. He still has upside as a player.
This is smart i agree with lonzo ball a lot
Are there any trusted online stores that you prefer other than Ebay ? Ebay seems like a minefield of shady operators.
ebay isnt shady, you just need to be educated on the game
oof lol
You think it’s wise still to buy Lonzo ball cards?
Great content! Can you send me a link to your spreadsheet so I can edit it as well?
I have nba cards since 1997. I want to dive on this business...
Hello that was a really good video and knowledge it really is a good investment people might say it's waste of time but I say start collecting now now now because you may have jackpots in your cards and what is your eBay user name to find you?
What’s the big deal with Prizm? That’s all people talk about and the cards don’t even look that good and the prices to buy a box of cards is outrageous and I have been collecting for years never seen such high prices on every product.
Looking like a very bad investment at this point :/ but his brother Lamelo on the other hand will be a great investment!
how do you know Lamelo is a good investment? he is super new to the game. also what makes you say Lonzo is a very bad choice he is also new? not disagreeing just curious (:
@@treytrewhella263 you are correct about melo being new so I’m deff assuming he’s going to be good but Lonzo has been in the league for a few years now and has deff been a bust for the number pick he was.
Do they sell national treasures for basketball in retail stores like Walmart or target?
Don’t get me wrong but, aren’t you creating scarcity in the market by buying multiples of the same card, thus making them more expensive?
So are you looking for the RC cards for players you think will have great careers?
Great episode. I like the investing in players, but I think more of investing in opportunity. For example Panini First Off the Line Products are a great investment! With exception of baseball, you get a 25% to 300% return on buying a box of FOTL and selling it. Assuming you understand FOTL.

Im starting out and this helped im trying to buy my first pack my friend
Thanks!
Nice video! Would be helpful to label those videos that focus on basketball. So those that collect other sports know.
How’s the Lonzo investment plan going now? What is he, on his 3rd team now? I wouldn’t invest in that dude if I could use Monopoly money.
I really detest the entire Ball family. Part of cards is public opinion, and I just don't think he has the "like-able" factor that will help the long-term value of his cards. Good luck with it though.
He's already made tons of money on lonzo, $20 for his base psa 10 cant even get them for under $100 now
You snapppped
Is this your way of unloading all your lonzo? Haha jk but maybe... Good content
Recently subscribed, great content. I may have missed it, but I’d appreciate a “when to sell” video/perspective from you
His card is definitely dropping more and more, so this may be a good opportunity. But I believe he may need to get traded or go to another team that can build around him. Great content! Thanks!
The second ball is either a fake or all the other cards are fake and only one original
Bet on the wrong Ball brother 😂
Lonzo ... ouch.
The Lakers front office likes Kyle Kuzma more than Lonzo Ball. Does that scare you?
Based on the Lakers' track record the past several years, no. :)
So if you're looking at these cards simply as an investment, isn't it bad not to diversify your portfolio? Like you wouldn't want to buy as much of 1 unproven stock as possible and nothing else.

Cards are worth what u want to pay
