I BOUGHT A SPORTS CARD COLLECTION FOR $200

Last week I bought a small sports card collection full of basketball, baseball, football and hockey cards. To my surprise, there are tons of rookie cards, autos/relics and parallels.

The shoes are called Under Armour Curry 1 FlowTro Sour Patch Kids and they go anywhere from $70 up to $120 if you're lucky. Great pick up!

[@josephdill3776]

Great breakdown dude!! I fell asleep for a minute and missed a few minutes and I needn’t look back to see what I had missed. Thanks for the rundown!

[@snerdterguson]

Even after that there were a bunch of $5-$20 cards. There were like 6 TJ Watt Silver Prizm RCs and they sell on average for about $20+

[@aAsShHtTo0nN]

Tyreek Hill prizm probably worth more than 20.

[@aAsShHtTo0nN]

You should triple your money. I was thinking a Mahomes silver was gonna come out w all that 2017.

[@Wolf-xu1fj]

So what is the total?

[@lamarwiggins7386]

Just one time, I want to find a collection like this for cheap..great find

[@DarinsCards]

Don’t sleep on the vintage Star Wars cards

[@LivinginGrandJunctionColorado]

I never find deals like that! Usually someone I reach out to is asking $200 for their 1987 Topps Commons

[@josephdill3776]

I know that cards like that 2017 Prizm TJ Watt rookie still maintain $10-$20 values That was ONE FO THE very best weekly pickups that you’ve had in quite a few years!

[@WallyMoon56]

Dude lost his girl and his cards to Jon’s friend. Poor guy probably would want the cards back

[@howardsun]

You can tell the guy really put a lot love into his collections, sad story with his situation .

[@kmcards]

"They are from when my ex dated her last bf, we have been together 5 years" (has rookies from 2 years ago in it) 😅😅 I would have some questions

[@Luciddreamer007]

💥 I had a plumber once show up to my house and he was wearing lime green Nikes ….. long story short - he told me each and every time he wears them out in public women come up to him and tell him they love his lime green sneakers !! And this dude was no Brad Pitt !! so I challenge you wear those under Armour sneakers out in public for one Saturday afternoon and see if my plumber was right !!! 🤘 Good Luck ; Space Cadet ! 💥

[@TonyCaldwell-h7k]

Jon you have 4 Mahomes rookie cards. He is THE big name in football...Think Ohtani but for football. The normal Prestige ones are $50-$60+ each and the "passport" rc is $40-$50+ , @26:18 in the video you had another Mahomes rc it's the one that says "Gameday Ticket" Raw that card goes for $25+ BUT! if you get it slabbed and it's centered and a 9 or better it's anywhere from $90 to $125....Just the Mahomes cards you have paid for your box and then some

[@N83Gaming]

Hey bud! I'm here watching this recovering from heart surgery. I love the MaHomes rookies, kobe (Black mamba) cards! It's always fun to buy a collection, and just see if you can fine a one of a kind card, or that magic (ty cobb) rookie 😀 with in it. For $200 you really got your money wroth! loved the longer video, could watch for hours.

[@paullilko41]

A few more rookies worth mentioning : Joe Thomas, Calvin Johnson, Joe Staley, Vince Wilfork, Mikko Ratenen, Jusse Saros, Kristaps Porzingis, Tyler Lockett

[@jasonparker61119]

Add Justin Jefferson

[@cbal24]

You got $200 at least in value from the basketball cards in the first box. Looks like fodder for a future auction night.

[@timothyd1387]

Seems like everyone's collection has a few unexpected decent hits. The Mahomes RCs and the TJ Watt rookie auto were some of them out of this collection. 😎👍✌️

[@beanpie7191]

Agree, the 2 Mahomes rookies alone, are between 45-60 raw. Was a pretty good deal imo.

[@marktyers1248]

A couple of Jack Eichel rookies for hockey. Just won the Cup for Vegas. Box is at least $500-$800 in value.

[@thomaschongski4735]

That's how he spelled n said his name u til like 1990-91 I think. I have older Hakeem cards with his name spelled like that.

[@Novinsld]

Dude, you got like a thousand bucks from that collection. The Mahomes rookie prestige go for 50 each easy. Check on all those Brady cards. The starwars cards are 1-5 bucks each, could make some nice money on those selling those in lots

[@psychedelicpsycho]

That tj watt rookie auto is prob an $80 card! Def worth the $200! There’s some good basketball and football cards in there too!

[@ralphagualberto6941]

That was an awesome buy you made your money back then some. Thank you for sharing that find.

[@TonyCaldwell-h7k]

Jon the Star Wars cards you have there might be something good. I know that they are sought after and can be valuable. Those are originals from 1977

[@joshnicholas6321]

The Maholmes that looks like his ID is a case hit.

[@Brotherjcardfinds]

Awesome collection! Best way to get a collection that isn’t picked over, find someone selling someone else’s collection they left behind!

[@quietstorm454]

couple Joe Thomas rookies for browns. He's inducted Into hall of fame in couple of weeks

[@danday9697]

That tj watt rookie auto almost paid for everything. That and the mahommes rookies, and it's all profit from there

[@tonyhamilton9764]

That second Bregman is the image variation and it's about a $50 card. Very nice find! Lots of gamble but the money is there if you were breaking this out and selling through it. Thanks for sharing.

[@PushnButtons62]

Great find, man! I bought one of those Jordans when I was getting back in. Bought it on mercari along with like 3 star jordans from 85 and 86. All fakes. Lesson learned. Im glad yours is good. Nice kobe and Robinson too

[@jajasvintagesportscards8669]

Great deal! You did good as always. The Jordan, Kobe, and TJ RC auto were my favorites. Nice work! 👍👍

[@OGMikey.]

Have I ever told you how much I enjoy you pulling Emmitt Smith cards?... maybe once or twice.

[@muckster_84]

Whoa a couple of Mahomes rookies! Nice pickup. 👍

[@floydfanTN]

yeah Im halfway through and counted at least 4, that almost could pay for the box.

[@TrueREDSfan1]

Nice find! 17 bowman chrome Bregman rc was a SP, also i believe there was a Gold topps museum collection Jose Bautista, i think???

[@ChrisC1677]

Dude was in breaks before it was cool. Lots of nice cards! 👍

[@BBoergert]

All excited about the Harold Blaine’s and passed up a Mahomes rookie🤦🏼‍♂️

[@jayspin8093]

those team bags are most likely break winners, and i would make sure and go back and see if there are Connor McDavid rookies. You had a bunch of cards from his rookie year

[@Toytanium]

Hey Jon, the shoes are about $200- Sour Patch Kids x Under Armour Curry 1 Retro

[@floydfanTN]

Yeah I thin Jon underestimated Sneaker Heads and their willingness to pay big money for shoes.

[@thomaselferis2436]

My friend just on the Tyreek Hill you got all your money back you got some great football cards in there you can actually quadruple your money on this by you have incredible cards your brother should be with you scroll through this you can look up the prices

[@ObsessedCollector]

If the 1977 Star Wars Luke Skywalker card #1 is nm, youre looking at 150-300 graded. $5000+ as a 10

[@Nerdsplayingcards7]

That Iverson RC got the juices flowing , nice haul brother

[@Akiwakitaki]

Starts off maybe no hockey cards.. Proceeds to go through a ton of hockey cards 😅

[@guyers6247]

you made a killing on this deal. about 1k worth the cards. Great job

[@stevenguevara2184]

This was a fun collection to sort thru. Worth the money

[@JayJay-mm3rm]

That's a great deal, that was worth 200 bucks for sure good job 👍

[@HoldenLeisner]

The football cards alone tripled your money. That was a great deal. You scored big time

[@chadmilligan342]

Those Maholmes are about $200 a piece now really nice cards

[@josephdill3776]

The Luke skyWalker and Han Solo stickers have some pretty significant value in tip top shape. Especially in high grades. That original Star Wars Sticker set was miscut, not always sticky and just a disaster in general, so finding the main characters in even decent shape is a nice pickup!!! Also that Bergman Bowman Chrome rookie (where he was on the bench) was the image variation. I think those are/were like 1 or 2 per case in Bowman Chrome over the past several years.

[@soxbigdog]

Keep us updated when the girlfriends ex comes looking for his cards lol

[@scottnovak5559]

Iverson fleer rookie, porzingis rookie, marcus smart rookie, jerami grant silver rookie , mike evans rookie , juju silver rookie, the tj watt stuff and mahomes

[@edwardclement102]

You went by the KP rookie fast, he played a big role in Boston winning the NBA this year. I would take his cards any day.

[@bigjohn1819]

Awesome deal Jon! I need some of those cards for my PC. Really enjoyed watching you go through this collection. Keep up the great videos!

[@PatMcCarthy420]

That 1993 Studio Ken Griffey Jr. is one of my favorite cards of all time

[@bran7134]

Would LOVE that 87 Bo Jackson!😮

[@ktc629]

Nice! Love the Hoops Cards! Im a buyer for all the basketball cards!!! remember that! That TJ WATT Prizm Silver Rookie is a sweet card

[@jamesbrown5588]

I think you definitely got more than 200.00 worth of cards so you did good brother.

[@bran7134]

Insanely fun variety. Man I wish I could come across a packed lot like this one. Great pick up!

[@don951]

Very cool! A lot of big names. Fun stuff!!!

[@chrisweiss6363]

Those shoes are Stephen Curry 1 maybe not $300 more like $150 still nice shoes

[@Oz1976]

If those are shoes are Under Armour SC1's (Steph Curry) "Candy Reign" colorway and they're "dead stock" IE never worn...then he certainly wasn't far off saying they sell for that much. Could definitely get $200 if they're the original 2015 shoe and not the 2022 retro. Used one's sell for about $100 on Ebay. Interesting tidbit: That Brad Kaaya RC Auto. Did you ever see the movie Friday with Ice Cube and Chris Tucker? Brad Kaaya is the son of the "Crackhead" lady in that movie, actress Angela Means, the one that spawned the meme "Bye Felicia".

[@billyv604]

Hey! That Robinson card with him holding up his Jersey has value!! It’s rare

[@billyv604]

David

[@heytherejeffro]

Me looking at those Star Wars cards 👀👀👀

[@dagrcards3075]

I love using shoe boxes for my common cards!!

[@Hotshoulders]

Sleeve those Mahomes cards up immediately

[@benbode906]

Man you skimmed past a bunch of Mahomes rookies and tj watts and I love the 88 fleet basketball cards I’m trying to get the all star set. Good score!

[@johnschuller8383]

That was a hell of a deal 200 bucks!! There are a lot of good cards there

[@carlos424]

Hella good deal. Easily make 3-4 times your money back, and that’s not even counting the shoes : )

[@damoncallaway5450]

well….I just got home and now time to get caught up on my Past is Alive fix 😅

[@monkabuda]

I saw 2 minutes of the video and I know you made out great!!!

[@dagrcards3075]

You did pretty well I think. Very nice selection of cards!!

[@rywerxgarage107]

id like to have that bregman rookie sp. the one sitting on the bench. there's only one on ebay that is graded psa10 for 175. id like to have the raw card for my collection. hadnt seen that card before. i had to stop the video and go look that one up.

[@thomaschongski4735]

That green prizm marcus smart rc has some value also

[@kevinblackhurst8981]

T. J. Watt Silver Prizm Rookies are $20.00-$30.00 Cards

[@bobbylebeuf2253]

Made a good chunk if not all of your of money back on the 5 Mahomes rookie cards 💪

[@gregchappell8866]

An Aussie steelers fan drooling at all their cards you scored.👍

[@edelmantoamendola]

Yoo you passed right over that Christian Mccafrey rush week card. That's atleast $20. He's injured rn, I'd wait until he comes back and has a big game which he eventually will. He's the $1 fantast pick the last couple years probably a future HOF'er if can stay health. Sick Mahomes RC's too.

[@travishill2103]

If I break up with my girl, first thing I am grabbing is my cards and then clothes and anything else.

[@Ripping4Rutschmans]

Wow great deal for $200

[@ObsessedCollector]

Just the star wars alone will cover what you paid. Leia, Luke, R2D2 rookies. Amazing pick up!

[@dagrcards3075]

Sweet Nigel Wilson Rookie. He was from my hometown of Ajax Ontario. He was an awesome AAA player just couldn't make the jump to Majors...

[@319mtg8]

Looks like he got into alot of team breaks online, the tj Watt silver prizm rookies are like $35-$40 each and you had 3 or 4 of them.....massive find for your investment

[@drewv1747]

The Iverson Fleer is a true RC. Yanni Gourde is a pretty decent young gun too

[@dagrcards3075]

I remember when Ryan Spooner came to the Oilers. He was a highly touted prospect but didn't turn into much.Pretty bad trade for Oilers as Ryan Strome was the enter player.

[@coreyredman1984]

Megatron RC for the Lion's HOF player!!

[@MrK623]

Love triangle sports collection. Great price. Too bad about the screwdowns, they damage the integrity of the card by smashing the card thinner. Fouts Staubach looks like a good card and of course the Jordan. Mahomes are highly desirable.

[@willg.2045]

Seems like a great buy for $200. Some of those blue bordered (and maybe other colored borders) Star Wars cards may be worth getting graded if they are 8s or better, as well as that Luke Skywalker sticker.

[@dlinny9458]

I counted at least a 20 cards worth grading. Should get 1,500-2K of value on this today.

[@edelmantoamendola]

Man there are like 4-5 cards you should get you $ back on or a profit. This is why I worry about marketplace. I feel like so many of these are picked over. Just scooped up a $50 box from marketplace on Tuesday that the dude was asking $250 for. Scraped a 61' Whitey Ford in good condition and a 64' Tony Oliva RC out of it that should get me my $ back, but the 3rd best card was probably your standard Topps McGwire rookie. Was first time doing that, and not sure if I'd do it again, feel like you are better off just buying the cards you like individually or a few at a time. It is fun as hell looking through it for gold though.

[@jameslong4181]

I have that jordan sticker in a beckett 8 and the original in a graded 8 wife bought them both in 2019 for 200 at a comic book store

[@brucebell3438]

The prestige Patrick Mahomes RC run $130 PSA 10 You made out like a bandit easy 4x to 5x your money

[@davidjones1393]

HEY THE GARGOUYRLES ARE MAKEING A MOVE

[@andrewgaffney4881]

Not sure if it was a 1990-91 O-Pee-Chee jagr rookie card I saw in the first box. Could be $$ if worth getting graded.

[@Dllsfn72]

What up again Jon!! Hope all is good in your world. God bless you brother

[@sharablecortex2725]

That Steelers card is 🔥

[@richard7479]

If you put a lot together of the doubles or even triples let me know…I’d likely place a bid. Thanks for sharing!

[@mikeraleigh358]

Nice pick up! Guy did a lot of team breaks.

[@anthonyhuffman4015]

Simultaneously both very satisfying to see the cool cards but hard to watch the handling and name butchering....positive overall and i can only hope you do your research...well worth the money...

[@anthonyhuffman4015]

Ps in the second folder, there's a nice Tracy McGrad...not sure value but those 90s inserts seem to be popular!!

[@Brotherjcardfinds]

KZbin is hilarious, you can always tell when a hit is coming up as right before it happens, they will stick a couple commercials in the video.

[@cryptonite8495]

Even if you pull everything worth more than $10 (dozens?) you have $700+ and could sell the rest in bulk to get your $200 investment back. Many collectors would easily pay that for a box with hundreds of cards worth a few cents up to $10. Maybe toss in a couple $20 duplicates so they feel like they got a steal.

[@NightmareRips22320]

So I didn't look through every comment just the last 20 or so but you definitely came up really well here, that Kobe is his rookie year I'm pretty sure you said '96-'97! I know it's lame to most but "The Dream" Olajuwon is my all-time favorite basketball player and the '88 fleer before the H was added to his name is awesome! Jordan and Kobe got your money's worth, congrats on the killer deal my man! Keep up the good work in the hobby!

[@TonyCaldwell-h7k]

Those shoes are Steph Curry's model......They go for like $60 on Ebay

[@craigmartin1104]

I counted five mahomes rookies.....well done sir!

[@sirwin7776]

those mahomes and tj watts are worth decent money Dont know much about nba but seems like the early prizm kobe and porzyngis prizm rc would be good too. c3po is a green border

[@aaronfraser4774]

You did good on this one! One you may not have noticed is the TJ Watt rookie auto. it's around l $50-$100

[@timlugovoy9123]

Dude you made out very well on this deal. Love the Lindros huge fan!

[@ArmandoJuarez-r1e]

I hit a Kirby dach autographed poster with the Blackhawks I have no idea who it is or what it’s worth but I heard you mention hockey if you could let me know

[@jasonjason104]

I’d be interested in 1 of each of the 1990 Fleer Basketball stickers if you’ll ship to Canada

[@GAMBINOBILL]

Those Joe Thomas rookies are pretty valuable if they grade well
