Kobe Bryant Card Collection Showoff - Including ROOKIE CARDS, AUTOGRAPHS, JERSEY PATCHES & MORE!

[@KobeCards]

Absolutely amazing Kobe collection! I saved this video specifically for a night where I could sit back and enjoy this video. I really loved all the cards and the stories you shared. Makes me proud to see you holding onto these pieces of history. Thanks for sharing!!! :)

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks for watching! Yeah a lot of these cards are very meaningful to me, and none of them will ever be leaving my PC!

[@erickavila8807]

Awesomeeeeee video my friend. So many Kobe Rookie cards I would love to own and HOPE to pull one day over at JunkWaxJunkies. We have some truly EPIC Kobe Rookie hunts on the way!!!

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks man! I’ve actually added a bunch of new Kobe cards since I posted this video, so I’ll have to do an update at some point. Maybe when I get some stuff back from PSA I’ll make a new video!

[@erickavila8807]

@@BigJBasketball YESSSSSS PLEASE I would love to see the grades your cards get.

[@CardManic]

love this video Big J! great collection of Kobe's those Flair Showcase was my grails growing up, wish i kept all of it. it was such a great looking product! thanks for sharing!

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks for watching! I’d still like to add the Row 0 Flair Showcase RC, maybe I’ll get around to that one of these days!

[@dirta2315]

Awesome collection ! Crazy that you got to meet him in high school

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks! I’m just glad I bought most of these cards before his prices skyrocketed. I just wish I bought more back then. Those three autographs were only around $100 each right before he passed. But yes it was very cool getting to meet him in high school! He was already a really big deal at that point, and most basketball fans already knew who he was. That was the only time I ever got to see him play live and I’m grateful for that opportunity!

[@Th3St33lerFan12]

🔥 collection ! I Pc Kobe myself so it’s cool looking at others collections out there !

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks so much! I’ve actually added a ton of new Kobe cards since I made this video, so one of these days I’ll need to do an update!

[@zeusdeuce7438]

Thanks for sharing, I was at a flea market several months ago and found the Bowmans best Kobe rookie for 1$ lol it’s fortunate it doesn’t say rookie on the card or it never would have slipped through the cracks

[@BigJBasketball]

Wow awesome pickup for only $1! That’s a $100+ card now!

[@-SINSLAY]

Nice collection! I collected from 91-2014 or so but still picked up Kobe’s here and there throughout the years. Didn’t realize how high some of that rookie year stuff got! May looking into moving some of my multiples and aim for my holy grail MJ rookie! You should get that high school photo into a custom card!

[@BigJBasketball]

Yeah even the base rookies have risen in price a lot! The Collector’s Choice RC was a $3 card for years and is now going $25+ if it’s in good condition. I was thinking of sending the auto to PSA to have it authenticated and put into a nice slab

[@cedgarcia9650]

finally made it! just pure beauty of a collection. loved it man. thank you for this awesome content. auto liked the video even before it started playing.

[@BigJBasketball]

Great, glad you enjoyed it! I will make more of these videos in the future for the other players in my PC

[@cedgarcia9650]

@@BigJBasketball nice! i'll be waiting for another great content from you. thanks.

[@Bangpaulxu]

Great collection!!!!!! Awesome Kobe signature on that paper and even more awesome story

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks! That Kobe auto is by far my favorite piece out of my entire collection, and not just for Kobe but for everything in total. I ended up getting that auto authenticated and slabbed from PSA, so now it’s safely encapsulated for safekeeping! I picked up a bunch of new Kobe cards since I did this video too, so I might need to do an update at some point!

[@skylerlanglow7806]

The best one was the auto from high school

[@BigJBasketball]

Yeah that is my favorite piece I own - not just for Kobe, but for my entire collection. I recently got it authenticated and slabbed by PSA so now it’s protected for the long term!

[@SageTheCollector]

Very cool to see the whole Kobe collection. Good auto to end on. 👍🏻 I can’t wait for the Ginobili and Zo videos, but those might have to be two or three part videos.😄

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks for watching! Yeah, I both my Ginobili and Zo PCs are more than twice the size of my Kobe PC, haha. I’ll have to go through some of those cards a little quicker!

[@daviddavis8758]

can you do an update video? plz

[@Kee-Von]

Sweet collection! I love the Clear Visions too. I've got three base Shaqs. What I like is they have variations of Shaq in home and away jerseys. Do they do that for Kobe too?

[@BigJBasketball]

Yep, they have the same for Kobe with this one in the purple jersey that I have, plus another one in the gold jersey!

[@ericharrison4583]

Kobe story from high school man... That's super cool

[@BigJBasketball]

Thank you!

[@seucongodocatimbo]

Have you noticed the Kobe row cards has 2 different backs ? One black n white other his face and color? My row zero has his face and it’s colored

[@BigJBasketball]

That’s interesting…I don’t think I’ve ever seen one that’s black and white on the back. All the ones I’ve ever seen have Kobe’s face in color on the back

[@seucongodocatimbo]

@@BigJBasketball yea there’s a video here if you put it Kobe row zero you’ll see a short of it w a b/w back

[@Bright_LXk]

Nice cards! Where did you get those perfect fit sleeves for one touch?

[@BigJBasketball]

The name of the company is called Superior Fit Sleeves, they’re the best! Here’s their website: www.superiorfitsleeves.com

[@Bright_LXk]

@@BigJBasketball Thank you so much!

[@Mongkey007]

Wow I really enjoyed this video. Especially since I'm a Kobe fan. I'm looking for a nice on-card auto as well. Some suggestions for future videos since I'm curious as well. 1. It would be interesting to find all the cards with Kobe wearing his Jordan PEs. I liked you mentioned that fun trivia. 2. Maybe consider sending in his HS auto for authentication that way it's slabbed forever.

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video! That would be a tough project to find all the cards where Kobe is wearing Jordan PE’s, but it would be fun to see! I’ve thought about sending the Kobe auto to PSA, but I wouldn’t want to risk them not authenticating it and then something happening to it. I’m happy for now just to hold on to it as is. Maybe if I was ever able to visit PSA in person, I could show it to them to see if it could be authenticated.

[@jprk31]

Awesome collection. Any plans of grading those cards? Love the hologram TSC card!

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks for watching! I don’t have any plans to grade any of them at this time, most of the cards in my PC I keep ungraded

[@bobandicards9472]

My Kobe PC thanks you for the inspiration. :) Great Kobe Story!

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

[@grahamhang3638]

You have so many awesome kobe rookies. You missed the holy grail rookie. Topps chrome base. I thought for sure you would have it.

[@BigJBasketball]

I had a BGS 8.5 Kobe Chrome Rookie a long time ago, but unfortunately I sold that around 2001. Wish I had that one back! I’d like to buy another one at some point but I think they’re still too expensive right now.

[@MrVocalist101]

great kobe collection!, you have the best kobes in the ex2000 and bowmans imo. just got a premier prospects back from psa at a 9 so im happy to hear people are waking up to it!! lol

[@BigJBasketball]

Yep the EX2000 and the Bowmans are some of my favorites! Nice job getting a 9 on the SP rookie! I think that card will keep jumping in value over time.

[@SpursCards21]

Nice collection Baller! Thanks for sharing! Take care and stay safe brother 🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks for watching brother!

[@depitydog]

We need an update!!!

[@BigJBasketball]

Haha, I have some stuff planned to go to PSA, so I was hoping to do an update when those cards came back, but I haven’t even sent them yet since PSA shut down most services. I will definitely do an update though at some point in the future!

[@daviddavis8758]

wow! fine collection! i only collect Kobe and you are the real deal

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks!

[@charmzc.5082]

Wow signature from Kobe when he was 17 yrs old, Very nice story🤙

[@BigJBasketball]

Thank you! It’s definitely my favorite Kobe item I have in my collection.

Love Kobe I didn't catch which ones were in the giveaway!!! Lol nice cards brother...

[@BigJBasketball]

Haha! Good one - no giveaway on these! Lol

[@vincentnguye4965]

A year ago ?

[@BigJBasketball]

I recorded this video in October 2020, but I’ve picked up a lot of new Kobe cards since then. Might need to do an update sometime!

[@lukeroe5972]

Great Kobe collection Bih J , thanks for the video , respect form Australia

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks for watching all the way from Australia! I visited there 2 years ago and I loved my time there!

[@barryrobinson6025]

Nice collection, nowadays you have at least 50k worth of Kobe cards. I’m a huge collector as well but I don’t own a single raw card worth more than $600. I see you have multiple $1k Kobe’s wow!!

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks! Luckily I had great timing on a lot of these purchases, I could never have gotten all these cards if I was paying current prices. All three of those autos I bought for only around $100 each right before he passed, and now they’re all worth probably $1500-$2K each!

[@mihiraminsportscards9143]

Amazing collection and that paper auto is a great story to hear every time 😁

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks, I love telling that story!

[@2tallcards785]

Great collection! We're about the same age (based on the paper Kobe auto) old men in a young man's game 😂😂

[@BigJBasketball]

I turn 40 in a few months, definitely getting up there, but I’ll keep up with all the young guys in this hobby! Haha

[@2tallcards785]

@@BigJBasketball hell yeah, I'll be 39 in April. I'll hopefully be moving to Asia in Dec, so I probably won't be doing much with the hobby after that, so it's all for you and the young guys 😂

Definitely still a lot of collectors in Asia! Maybe you will be able to get your hands on some Tmall stuff lol

Nice card, but I’m good thanks!

[@boxcitycards5589]

Nice collection, you should definitely get the Topps chrome rookie 🚀

[@BigJBasketball]

I would love to get the Topps Chrome, it’a just so expensive! I bought one for $15 back in 1997 and graded it with BGS and it got an 8.5. I sold it in 2000 for probably $400, which was a lot of money back then, but I really wish I had it back!

[@buildingbuildercip8292]

Kobeeeee! RIP Black Mamba!

[@BigJBasketball]

He was definitely one of my favorites - I’m still buying his cards, but they’ve gotten so expensive that I had to slow down a lot on my purchases unfortunately.

[@funkocollector1175]

Do more of these!

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks for the feedback, I will definitely plan on doing some more of these for the other players in my PC!

[@hoophead8130]

I like the chunky patches.

Yeah, the Absolute Memorabilia patch is one of my favorite Kobe cards!
