SPORTS CARD RARITY - A Breakdown & Guide to Parallels and Rarity of Sports Cards

In this video we go in-depth into explaining all the different parallels and rarities of sports cards.
Everything from short print, numbered, auto, rookie patches, to shimmer and genesis cards.
*As of 2020, everything serial numbered above /50 is considered short print (SP), and everything /50 and below is considered super short print (SSP). With the addition of anything /15 and below is considered super super short print (SSSP) or ultra short print (USP).
**Multi-color soccer pulsars are from hobby not retail.

Awesome summary and loved how you also covered every different format, not just the color and pattern parallels. This should be required watching for all newbs!

[@BREAKfastcards]

Thanks! That’s the goal. Hope this reaches at least as many people as there are base cards!

[@howievision]

@@BREAKfastcards The parallels might be more common than the base now! 😅 I will be impressed if someone puts together the whole Melo Prizm Rookie Rainbow minus the 1 of 1s.

Great video brotha! I'll take one of everything please! Thank you for sharing your wisdom! Have a great weekend

Thank you for this video, makes sense 100%. I appreciate the info! I feel a lot more confident having convos about cards lol

Thank you! Finally! I’ve been looking for a video like this for a month

You bet!

50,000 copies of a single player base card is low - In 2018-19 copies of single player base cards reached 100,000 and in 2019-20 Panini Prizm started to reach levels of 300,000 copies of a single player. In 2020-21 Panini is still printing cards for sets that came out at the beginning of the year and some estimate that as many as 1 million copies of an individuals base card has been reached!!!

[@BREAKfastcards]

Man that's absolutely wild. Not surprised at all but we'll see the ripple effects of this in years to come!

[@robertcopeland2946]

@@BREAKfastcards It's kinda sad! In the 90's when the market collapsed estimates were that almost 2 million copies of some players in a single product had been reached! Panini and friends are on the way to that target, but since they all think that they are losing their licenses in 5 years - Why would they care?

[@BREAKfastcards]

@@robertcopeland2946 Yeah this is the part that saddens me the most

[@robbiewilliams5112]

I did feel like 50,000 base prizm was kinda of low when I heard it but I collect Lamelo prizm cards and I'd like to know where the numbers you had come from. I'm not doubting them at all but I'm just getting back into things and I'd like to learn. I have some base but I've got twice as many parallels I do base.

Very helpful! Thank you.

Awesome breakdown man!

Great video. It was fun to watch 😁

I've learned alot. Thanks

Good job, nice review 🤙🤙

There are cards yourre sauing are nunbered but it doesnt say for example 13/75 on the front or bazk, do i have to go tuoe in the serial number on the back?

Hey, thank you for your helpful and very informative video! 🤓👍👍👍

Curious how sports teams changing cities influences cars value (e.g. Raiders, Rams, Chargers, Athletics) or even how it impacted teams like the expos

[@justfor8550]

is there every rarity for every player or do only certain players get certain types of rarity. like is there a 1/1 for every player?

[@user-uc9ot7ur7l]

Now, how do I go about this. What about cards, from the, let's start w/ the 2002 upper decks authentic run, now 89 had the Dale Murphy Rev. Neg. of course,... I attempt to look for the print runs of the Rev/negs. In their 2002 set? They mention somethings ss

[@packgod5688]

I have this NFL dez fitzpatrick rookie card with blue lettering numbered 21/25, (i got it out of the 2021 panini playbook megabox) I can’t find any of the other 24 cards online so I have no idea what it is honestly since I’m a noob.

[@BREAKfastcards]

The exact same card numbered out of /25 will typically be hard to find since it's super short print. If you're looking to get an idea of value, you can look up similar Dez Fitzpatrick rookie cards /25 on eBay

[@alexthegaminggawd5061]

Great vid thanks 😊

How rare is a neon green pulsar?

[@kevingreene4090]

I agree RPA's are indeed hard

[@mikeschmid5133]

Where did you find that stat on sp and ssp cards... I've heard white sparkles are around 20 of each

[@BREAKfastcards]

That's an older stat from pre-2020. If you check the comments section you'll see the updated one

[@PomskyAriel]

The amount of parallels for new product is absurd. I appreciate the topps chrome basketball when they had few parallels.

[@J_Dunc_da_MILLest]

Is there any kinda website or anything where it list all parallels and variations in order of value?

[@TheRizzlyBear21]

I like cardboard connection. It’s a site that helps list out the check list. It doesn’t necessarily mention value but it does mention the print run so you can infer from that the lower the more valuable.

[@official315]

I have a red/blue 7/15 lauri markkanen card from 23-24 donruss i believe its pop 1 as of now any idea of value and where i should sell it?

[@BREAKfastcards]

Values/similar cards can be looked up on eBay sold listings. You can sell it there but the fees are high

[@viktorbarfodkristiansen7272]

Nice video!

[@BREAKfastcards]

Thanks!

[@LongLiveTheChaz]

I am NEW to the card world. But i pulled a 2023 Select #39 Kenny Pickett Tie-Dye and cant really find many records or value of the card. None sold on ebay.. only 1 other listed at $300. My issue is knowing the value.. is it worth sending to PSA.. but theres no base value on a PSA 10.. because of how little of these there are. How do i figure this out etc. The number of the card is 12/25

[@BREAKfastcards]

Once you can't find any sale history, the value will fall between the lowest available and recent sales of similar players or lower/higher serial numbers of the same player

[@jackmarshall5308]

sometimes it’s hard to distinguish the difference online and in person, how do we know which could be be worth some decent amount or high valued , outside of it being numbered or ssp/sp

[@BREAKfastcards]

This comes with experience, or familiarity with the set-specific checklists

[@jackmarshall5308]

what do you suggest to do for new people shopping online, like in lots, individuals or at card shows

So which type of card would you recommend that has the highest value of return?

High-end like National Treasures or Eminence, etc. aside, these ones 1:38

You keep saying numberd out of ….we’re dose it say that on each card

On chrome cards the serial number (e.g. 23/75) will be on the back, and non-chrome will have it on the front
