Every time you get to see beautiful and interesting card designs from over the years you realize how god awful the Panini monopoly is.

[@snerdterguson]

I'm mostly into baseball,so I stay far away from Panini, especially now that they lost the MLBPA license and now have to stick to prospects and retired players. But I did used to like Diamond Kings because it was a cheapish way to chase legendary relics. And I always like Stars and Stripes because you get some great players first-ever auto cards in that. And although it was near impossible to get close to value back from it, Donruss Baseball was always a fun box to open.

[@Ramikzur]

if you ask me, panini is officialy cashgrab and yeah some card designs are pretty good, but the love for their product and the relationship to their customers is way worse than that from companies of the 90´s when i remember the different eventcards you can get in the cheaper products, for meeting your idol, create your own card, becket was the standalone source to get a good overview and mostly prices....miss that times

[@Trashton]

Lol it makes you wonder which cards from ultra modern will hold their value 20-30 years from now

[@BigDirtDawg]

Right 😂

[@rlriii13]

I was excited for you to include your recent purchase of the PSA 6.5 orange Charlotte O's Ripken. Oh well, I guess I'll hold my breath until next week.

[@ricecakejohnson]

I collected MJs in the 90s, but have never seen most of these MJ inserts. It just shows how rare some of these MJ cards are. What a gorgeous collection!!!

[@ntataryn]

The crazy thing is if he’s been collecting for a while, 10-15 years ago you could’ve gotten this whole collection for the price of the highest card. Kind of making that up but it’s not far off. Oh to have that time machine

[@snerdterguson]

Honestly, best move collecting wise is to go to that day Topps dumped thousands of boxes of 52 Topps in the ocean. Grab a pallet or 20. I'm sure if you showed up and slipped some guy a $20 (make sure to have appropriate currency before time travelling!!!) he would "look the other way" as he laughed about the moron buying junk. But on a personal level, I would go back to tell my younger self to send in cards to that new company, PSA. I definitely used to have cards that were in, to my eye, perfect condition that are worth thousands and even tens of thousands. I also one time grabbed two packs out of a cart full of clearance packs at Wal-Mart. There had to be at least 200 packs in there, and every single one was either 2018 Topps Series 2 or 2018 Topps Update. I would like to fix that if I could.

[@Vintage_Dave_T]

Strange to me that someone would pay anything close to these prices. I guess we collect what we like and can afford. Whatever makes one happy.

[@Acesmcnugget]

Absolutely wild to carry a collection like this around with him at a show!! I guess if you're a big time dealer you get used to carrying millions around with you from one show to the next, but I'd imagine just this case is worth more than the majority of dealer booths at any given show.

[@jimmy_iKoN]

Jesus I feel lucky just owning the 86 fleer in a PSA 8. This dudes collection is insane 🔥

[@johnm1008]

Very cool idea for a High Rollers video. MJ was the obvious choice to do this type of video but I would also like to see similar videos for Kobe, Lebron, Tom Brady, and whatever baseball players that would make interesting videos lime Mickey Mantle, and Mike Trout Idk how possible that would be though without people with amazing collections reaching out

[@robmckay7289]

Josh Dawson is the lucky owner of those, I've seen him on a KZbin Jordan channel showing all these. He was just like all of us who collected cards back in the 90s but he was smart and bought all the rare ones. Even the crazy expensive ones you see now we're only bought for a couple hundred bucks back then by him. I think he said almost all of his expensive Jordans were bought over 25 years ago when they were very inexpensive

[@Ohrliiiii]

Jesus the amount of hate on these cards and video is wild. ​​⁠ Imagine saying in 1935 “Don’t get why Honus Wagner cards are so expensive because there is a limit print run and it’s not even his rookie” The 90s were the last and only time card companies were doing anything new and innovative unlike today’s money grabs. Also some of those inserts are likely true 1/1s vs how many fleer rookies? Amazing video, more of these would be great if you run into the opportunity to do more!

[@lancefinke2006]

Well, I’m ready for NE Sportscards Jordan High Roller collection 2.0 please.

[@TheRmm1976]

Some of those auto cards near the end of the video are insane!!! The one at 9:12 it doesn't get any better than this!

[@JackieChapman-c3u]

Very cool collection of Jordan cards.🎉😮 Thanks for the great video.👍❤️🔥🤘

[@ojibwe_86]

I wonder when these “rare Jordan inserts and parallels” will come down in price. Some of these prices don’t make sense.

[@MrEmory1980]

That’s one of the craziest collections I’ve ever seen. Although for some reason I was a little disappointed that he didn’t have a Star XRC in the collection. Hahaha Love the idea for this video.

[@PhuryousOne]

If I could have 3 out of that collection, I'd take the Gem 10 RC, the 2007 UD Exclusives Patch/Auto, and the Flair Hot Shots die-cut. Wouldn't mind owning the Dunk 'n' Go Nuts or the Big Cat on Court either. Amazing collection. I had to remind myself this wasn't a normal High Rollers, but one guy's collection.

[@NuthinFancyCollectibles]

This was a nice idea for a High Rollers episode. Thanks for doing it and sharing with us. Fantastic cards!

90's Jordan inserts being so expensive. I don't really understand. I get some of the 80's stuff (sorta) commanding the price of a house, but this other stuff?

[@willkramer5787]

It’s all about the pop counts. If there’s only 10-20 in a certain grade in existence of arguably the goat I can see why they go for so much.

[@colinburroughs9871]

@@willkramer5787 the idea that Skybox in 1998 could print up anything that's held those prices is... well I don't get it. I understand your point, my logical brain just can't though.

There are enough ultra rich Jordan collectors to drive the price up on the really rare cards.

Seriously, who is buyng the prices for these cards and what are the doing with them? We need an interview of some of these buyers.

[@gabriels1163]

Its a small market made up of a few insanely rich people. So rich that 50k doesn't impact them in any way. You could look through the lists of billionaires and probably make some good guesses as to who might be collecting. Mark Cuban?

[@nvsportscards7199]

I kick myself when I see these types of collections. I was around in 1997. I could have bought cards like this. But instead, I was collecting Kerry Wood and Jose Cruz Jr.

[@tubenachos]

Skybox was incredibly innovative in the 1990s. No surprise why they fetch big money and having Jordan helps. 😂

Hey card daddy. Have you ever thought of doing a highest non-sports card list? Excluding Pokémon - MTG - ETC. that would be a good watch. Looking forward to your next dealer story 👍

[@disneyguy3116]

Wow never seen these before graded so high

[@scottvaughn9]

Speculating sale prices today versus comps from two or three years ago has me scratching my head. Given how inflated everything was back then, I think it would be super interesting to see a comparison. Like a BSG 8.5 sale in 2021 would probably out-sell a PSA 9 (or 10) now, 😂

[@awbobsagetable]

doubtful. many collectors still waiting for many of these to become available. this isn't the zion silver prizm craze.

[@scottvaughn9]

@@awbobsagetable yea, I hear you. But I don’t think the sales spikes in early 2021 were contained only to Zions. It definitely hit the Goats, too.

[@johnthompson4098]

Awesome video, crazy cards. Great video.

[@joeday17821]

This is a really fun video and maybe, if a Brady or LeBron or Mahomes (etc) wanted to share their collections with you, you could do a similar video again! One comment about the cards themselves (or I guess the slabs)...almost all (if not all) of these slabs had scuffing on the front from those TERRIBLE perfect fit PSA sleeves. PSA and card collectors need to stop using these. They leave weird scuffs on slabs. I know we are buying the card and not the slab but when you have a 200K card and you pay a premium to get it graded, few things are as annoying as PSA scuffing up the case.

[@rj-vj8gr]

[@patrickmel8728]

Glad the scoring kings from fleer, and silky smooth & golden touches from skybox didn't show up here, would have hurt. Sold them raw 30 years ago as a kid when the products were new. And I wasnt a Jordan fan

[@daviddavis8758]

Wow! Amazing! quality and quantity! I am happy that he enjoys, showing his collection to others not locked in a safe. But man! security guard?

[@ARMENASSATURIAN]

Fact THAT HE DIDNTBSELL THES3 CARDS AT THE HEIGHT OF THE MARKET IS MIND BLOWING

If he has all of these cards I don’t think money is a problem. He may actually be a collector…

[@arresthillary9502]

fact that you think the height of the market is behind us is mind blowing

[@WilliamOrloff]

I’m assuming he was walking around with a security guard? Were there more private security guards at the National this year? I don’t think any YT channels covered this. At least the ones I watch

I really don't get why this guy would walk around a convention with these cards... he's obviously not trying to sell them, so what's the purpose? Seems like it's just for the clout, but I'd be worried about everyone knowing who the guy with a million dollars worth of Jordan cards is...

[@bobwhite4671]

@@jakepeters1404 thanx captain obvious, the problem as I see it is all different card companies coming with more and more weird ideas for cards , the production maybe low but cards made 10-12 years after his rookie year have value? Why not start up the printing presses now and limit production but in different colors? Second every card from that era was probably put in a protective sleeve as soon as opened, are there any ones or two graded cards out there, I doubt it.

Find the collector who put these together in the 90s that would be impressive and include the collector "story" too. Thanks for great videos (except the "flex" ones).

How presumptuous, first he stated at the beginning he started 30 years ago so 1994. He also did buy most of the inserts for 100s of dollars back then. Literally hating on a video you “want” to see.

​@Ohrliiiii Chris' appeal to most of us is the storytelling. I just find the videos without a story to be less compelling and providing that feedback to the publisher (Chris) is an important part of YT community. You can love it and tell Chris. We don't need to agree. Thanks for commenting!
