Siyempre, pare, tumaas na ang Beckett ngayon.. Tumaas na din ang dollar eh..

 

Shaq's rookie cards never did get that much hobby love even though he has won 4 championships.. Even with him winning the last one, there were no up arrows on his rookie cards at all.. His best RC is the Upper Deck (yung redemption).. two years ago, this card was at $50-60 yata.. Now its down to $40. Meron ka din ba nito? Just got one this year.. Bought the card for just Php700.00..

 

Ei, got a Randy Foye (lottery pick this year of the TWolves) autographed card for $20.00.. Php1K.. Will post a pic maybe tomorrow.. Usually Foye's auto ends at around $25-30.. I am betting that if McCants ain't playing this year.. then maybe he would have his playing time with KG and Ricky Davis.. thus, his rookie cards and autos might have up arrows in the future.. Sana tumaas ano?

Nice thread here.

 

I've been a collector of GHill & Jkidd cards before during my college years. After I graduated I decided to stop and sell all of my collection. :thumbsdownsmiley: Nakakapanghinayang din kapag naaalala ko yung mga hinawakan ko na cards dati. After reading this thread parang gusto ko mag collect ulit.

 

Any idea how much are these cards now?

 

- GHill & Jkidd 94-95 RC Finest/Refratocr

- GHill & Jkidd 94-95 Rack Pack/Refractor

- GHill & Jkidd 94-95 Skybox Draft Pick

- GHill 94-95 SkyMotion Exchange

- GHill 95-96 Co-ROY Exchange

 

Ang mahal na pala ng Beckett ngayon. Dati binibili namin xerox copy lang worth 20 pesos.

 

@revi

Madami pa bang collectors ngayon? Nasa Galleria na pala ngayon every Saturday? Dati palagi kami sa Ever Recto at sa Northmall.

 

Thanks. :thumbsupsmiley:

Grant Hill RC Finest - $30

Grant Hill RC Refractor - $160

Jason Kidd RC Finest - $25

Jason Kidd RC Refractor - $150

Grant Hill Rack Pack - $15

Jason Kidd Rack Pack - $25

Jason Kidd SkYbox DP - $20

Grant Hill Skybox DP - $10

** The others, I can't seem to find them sa Beckett..

 

Bumaba na ang mga Grant Hill and Jason Kidd over the years.. Especially Grant Hill.. because of his injuries.. Although mataas pa din yung mga Finest RC at Refrac still it is not the same as compared to when they first came out.. Yung mga Grant Hill Autographs - autographics ay nasa $100 at $80 pa din respectively.. It has gone down but still can be sold for around Php4K at Php3600.. kasi medyo hard to find sila coz there are still Grant Hill collectors here who have kept them over the years.. Kaso yung mga inserts na hindi RC, ay jersey cards.. Nakupo ang baba na nila..

 

Madami pa ding collectors ngayon.. Yung mga nasa Galleria karamihan (siguro 3/4) ay puros investors/sellers.. ang tawag sa kanila ngayon ay smackers.. mga sellers who buy cheap but sell big.. mga runners for the collectors.. I have my own runner sa Galleria to get some Duncan cards if ever na hindi ako nakakapunta.. But as compared to before, kakaunti na lang ang mga serious collectors ngayon.. Madami na ang nag-stop.. Maybe because of the sheer money you have to spend to collect..

 

Pumasok pa ngayon ang e-bay kaya lalong naging mahirap kumuha ng big-time cards dahil ang kalaban mo minsan ay mga Amerikano.. Inis nga ako ngayon dahil may kalaban akong isang Kano sa isang #d to 10 na Duncan patch eh.. Bwisit!!

 

Sa Galleria na lang ngayon ang trading area every Saturday.. Wala na ang mga shops sa ibang place.. Marami na ang nagsara.. Courtside na lang talaga ang matibay..

Here's a sample of my newest card.. a Randy Foye autographed card (Bowman Elevation ito).. No value in Beckett yet.. But it is assumed na nasa $40 ito.. Sya kasi ang isa sa mga pick ko together with Adam Morrison, Tyrus Thomas and Brandon Roy to create much hobby buzz this year...

... finally! Was able to get a Gilbert Arenas RC.. It is from the UD Legends set.. worth $15.. Php200 ko lang siya nabili.. Pwede na!!!

 

Alam ko na ngayon kung bakit nagkaubusan ng Arenas RC sa Pinas.. A big time collector collected him during his rookie days and got all his RCs na available sa Pinas.. Nasa kaniya pala halos lahat ng matitinding Arenas.. hehehe!!! Well, I got one that is also considered as a rare card.. Isa na lang ngayon ang hinahanap ko.. Gerald Wallace..

[revi]

It is a good weekend for my collection today.. specifically for my TD collection..

 

Was able to get the 1998-99 game used jersey of Tim Duncan which is priced at $150.. Got it for Php3,500.. A very very rare card.. this card was seeded at one per case of Upper Deck 98-99.. Hirap.. I have only seen 1 card similar to this in my so many years of collecting..

 

And I also won a two-color patch in e-bay of Duncan #d 10 of 10 (Bowman Elevation).. Yeah! Only ten in the world.. Got it for $29.00.. Here is the picture of the card.. Enjoy!!!

[revi]

... another one of my purchases for my auto collection..

 

This is a JJ Reddick autographed card from Bowman Elevation.. Just got it for under $14.. approximately under Php800 here (includes shipping kasi).. Usually ends at $22 or even at $40 (sometimes).. So got it cheap.. hehehe!!! Here is its picture.. Enjoy!!!

Thanks for the info revi. That's also one of the reason why I decided to quit because of the prices of GHill cards going down. I'am more of a Hill collector than Kidd before. Most of my rare cards came from trades at Beckett Online mostly from US residents. We finalize our deal only through email and we send the cards via registered mail. I't wasn't easy at first because there's a risk of you getting ripped off. Hindi pa uso ang E-bay dati. Pero lamang na lamang ako sa trade dahil kadalasan hanap ng mga Americano ay yung 1st batch ng Autographics (95-96 Skybox if I'm not mistaken). Kahit $10 common card ng Autographics ang offer mo sa kanila payag pa din kahit baryahan mo ang mga rare cards nila. I believe collect nila ang set nun which is very Hot daw sa kanila during that time.

 

You have a big collection there revi, ang gaganda ng cards mo... :cool: Parang gusto ko mag collect ulit kaya lang panibagong gastos na naman yan pag nag start ulit ako. :hypocritesmiley:

 

BTW, may kilala kang Jayson? Jigz or Jigo ang tawag sa kanya. Collector din sya dati kaya lang hindi ko alam kung nag stop na sya.

 

Thanks!

Thanks dude.. Collect ka ulit.. Its nice to go back nowadays and pick a player you want to collect.. Especially the next two years.. Coz high school phenoms Greg Oden and OJ Mayo are being drafted in the next two years respectively..

 

I have heard of Beckett online and have been looking (reading) the posts there for months now.. Meron din akong friend who does trades there but delikado daw.. But maybe if I have ever find the guts baka mag-trade din ako dun.. Kasi ang mga Kano weird eh, some collect really "cheap" players like Derek Fisher, Jalen Rose, etc.. who are cheap here.. so mura mo lang makukuha and then trade in bulk for certain rare cards..

 

Speaking of the old Autographics.. they are now "hot.." Kasi mayroong mga pumirma dun na hindi na umilit.. so yung iba dun full book or minsan lampas pa ng dollar price pagnakita mo sa e-bay.. examples would be Charles Oakley, Joe Dumars, Grant Hill, Ron Harper.. Ron Harper is at $60.. and is really off the roof dahil sobrang naging rare siya.. I was lucky to have had that card in my collection for three years now.. just got it when it was just at $20.. nakuha ko lang ng Php300 ito.. Money card ito ngayon.. Php3K minimum ito..

 

Dunno anyone named Jayson, Jigo or Jigz, dude..

[revi]

FYI.. Ron Harper signed (I think) two cards only.. Upper Deck 98-99 Sign of the Times.. and is wearing a Laker uniform.. Mas gusto ng collectors yung naka-Bulls siya.. so yung Autographics ang mas mahal.. at mas hard to find.. Saw one in e-bay and is already at $40 with 15 hours to go.. Here is the pic of the card from the bay.. My card is the same as this..

[kupalking]

tsong revi tagal ko di nakapost lintek kasi bagyo eh ngayon lang kami nag kailaw, meron ako nung shaq na upperdeck rc pero yung nakukuha sa pack hindi yung redemption yung black back ground na 3 shaq na mag da dunk, grabe all time great na itong si shaq mas mataas padin cards nila AI at lebron sa kanya, swerte mo ha at may arenas RC kana pala at dami mo pang bagong auto

Surprise to hear that the old Autographics are HOT once again.

 

Anyway, delikado nga ang trade sa Becket Online pero ako I usually trade lang sa mga well-known traders doon, yung mga kilalang tao na siguradong good traders at hindi ka lolokohin.

 

Ang systema dati, mag post ka lang ng WANT LISTS and NEED LISTS, then post mo din yung mga pang trade mo na cards. Pag may nag offer sa iyo at nagustuhan mo, you can demand na sila ang first-to-send since sila naman ang naunang nag offer. Kung gusto mo maka sigurado pwede mo gawin yan.

 

Parang gusto ko mag collect ulit kaya lang parang takot na ako gumastos. :cry: Daan nga ako minsan sa Galleria pag meron akong time para maka tingin mga bagong cards ngayon.

@revi

I checked the Beckett site, it's totally different now. During the old days puro email lang ang transactions, ngayon meron na silang message boards. Meron din mga traders from the Philippines doon.

 

BTW, madami pa ba new cards/inserts si Grant Hill? Meron din ba syang Jersey, Autograph and Numbered cards?

Thanks!

[• dShock •]

^dagdag ko lang sa post ko sa taas.

 

Ang daming magagandang cards ngayon, trip ko yung mga jersey cards. Lalo tuloy gusto ko mag collect ulit. :goatee: Parang gusto ko si GHill pa din para hindi na masyadong mahal at magastos.

 

@ revi

If you want to try Beckett, you can look for a list of good and bad traders, I notice it sa signatures ng mga users doon sa forum. Saka you can also look at their post count, big time traders are also big time posters. Good Luck.

 

OT: Why can't I edit my post? Meron Edit button kaso nag error. Sunod sunod tuloy ang post ko... dagdagan ko na lang sana yung post ko kanina kaso hindi ko ma edit. Thanks!
