revi Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 Its really a wonder why a lot of people in the Philippines collected NBA Cards during the early 90's.. Chris Webber, Juwan Howard, Penny Hardaway, Grant Hill, Jason Kidd eras.. It waned down after the lockout.. which was the 1998-99 season.. One factor the hobby is seeing is because of the expensive prices of packs and boxes.. some are really absurdly priced (Case in point, Upper Deck Exquisite Collection is priced at Php35,000 per pack) And because of hard times that Filipinos are experiencing, collectors just stopped collecting.. I still collect through rich friends/acquaintances who still open boxes and packs.. and sell their cards cheap and through e-bay.. but I only bid on those people who are based here.. Recently got these two autographed cards: Dwyane Wade - valued at $100 :thumbsupsmiley: Chris Mullin - valued at $40 :thumbsupsmiley: Quote Link to comment

But with the expensive pack prices and box prices of cards nowadays.. we are just contented to buy over e-bay (or with us derrick.. every Saturday sa courtside - galleria, or other shops in Greenhills).. and let the opening of packs be done by other people.. My dream is actually buying a cheap box of BB cards and finding out that its a hot box.. And in every pack that you open.. all have one-of-one autographed cards of players like KB8, LBJ and Jordan.. That's heaven.. Quote Link to comment

willow_boy Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 I collect Matchbox Superfast cars, specifically focusing on the models issued from 1970 to 1979. These were the British-made miniature cars manufactured by Lesney. I'm not too crazy about the current crop of Matchbox cars that are being manufactured and sold by Mattel in the US.
