Hey sports card investor,
I’m Empire a kid sports card TH-camr. I was wondering if you would do a box break that we could post in both of our channels
Hello i am so excited to see that the 1 of 1 Kyler encased triple patch I pulled in 2019 my first year of collecting is in your hands however I now see how bad of a descision I made by trading it for what I did and the person I sold it to must have sold it to you please get ahold of me somehow I would love to talk about it
@brendenconner9686 0:01
That Michael Jordan trade makes me feel sick. Not bc the Harden gamble didn't work out, but because he is signed to upper deck, is the most popular player ever, and you get insane leverage off of owning the single psa 10.
Yeah hes retarded. Even i have the james harden rookie in a bgs 9 but still....whst a tard
I actually can’t believe you were able to get the Murray lot for $7,500, even in March before this season where he has been playing at an MVP level I would still think most people would realize how much of a steal that is, props to you for recognizing that and it definitely paid off
Love the videos Geoff!
I’m really not surprised at that price because yes they are 1 of 1’s but many were just shields and laundry tags that were player worn rather than game worn. Plus they are literally 1 of 25’s at least in most products because of all of the parallels. The price was low because there are tons of one of ones out there and it really dampens demand. Also not a lot of the cards were autographed which kills the price. And lastly football in general does not do close to same comps when it comes to comparable players. Ja Morant cards from 2019 do a better than Kyler’s 2019 cards.
Super jealous of the Kyler Lot. Being a huge Kyler fan, I love the lot and the value! Great buy!
I can’t believe that I pulled the encased triple patch 1 of 1
Ehh murray isn't that popular , plus theyre not autoed or game used
This video was very humbling and we all needed to hear something like this from someone like you so the hurt of making bad decisions isn’t so deep.
Thank you Geoff 🙏🏻
lol......
Geoff could light all of his cards on fire tomorrow morning and still be smoking a cigar the next day on his yacht laughing about it. Give me a break. The worst thing he did this year was that attempted dance on stage with that 'sports cards enthusiast' Steve Aoki..........
That Herbert Kaboom was a steal!
I'm surprised the guy let it go for that low. If I had a card like that I'd definitely get it graded myself

@@Foldz880 Not me the condition scared him .
95% it will be basically worthless in 10 years. People rarely learn from history.
@@jude999 that’s why it’s called ‘investments” bud
I love that Jordan is the high and Labron the low! Sweet Poetic justice
Wow I cant even imagine being able to spend this kind of money on a card! That has got to feel good when you make out big on one! Hoping one day I can do the same because right now $100 on a card is a lot for me lol
you can do a lot for $100. I'm doing ok with $100 a week allowance.
@@TheSpud1129 that's a ton lmao. most people get $0 weekly allowance.
Same lol
@@TheSpud1129 when i spend $150 to $200 i normally dont get that back, not even close. I buy hanger boxes, mega boxes, fat packs, chronicles, etc and dont make the money back.
@@bigbubba4001 I'm going for select raw cards - for example, I picked up 20 Trinity Rodman cards literally 2 days before she signed her contract for $50. As soon as she scored the goal for the USWT, the card shot up to $100 EACH. Gotta be lucky sometimes - but I do a hell of a lot of research. My best card I ever purchased was a Jordan rookie card for $100 in 1988. I took all my paper route money and bought it. I still have it, unopened and untouched since that day.
I appreciate the transparency Geoff. Most of us have made some bad investments in the past year as well.
Lesson #1 Become a multimillionaire.
Lesson #2 Buy whatever I want.
Yeah. Fun to see his collecting adventures but hard to relate too. I agree.
@@greg3072 you have to get to that point dork
@@Thiiink wow. A reply to a comment from 2 years ago. LOL, name calling for a comment 2 years ago. And your name is Thiink? Made my day. Thank you.
Got to admire the fact that you have a lot of guts (and obviously money), Wilson. Great video to watch, thanks!
Enjoy your videos.20 plus years on eBay.I got some envelopes once💀
Love how you call him Wilson, Demare. Great comment to read, thanks!
I like this video. It shows that even with the best line of thinking large losses occur. I sold a Brady contender rookie auto b4 the boom thinking he’d be done by age 40. I was using my historical knowledge of qbs and easily left at least 50k on the table.
dang if you sold it before he turned 40 then it sounds like you left way more than 50k on table
Best, January 2021, 600 tatis lot. 40 chrome 90 heritage etc. Avg price $9 per card. Around 6k for lot raw. PSA 10 % 94 ON submission. Currently valued at 28 k on return, current market.
Better get that money!! Tatis is constantly hurt. I'm a Padres Homer but I'm losing faith in jr.
Plus very common base cards that there are already a ton of in the market with huge populations and why you can pick up most of his PSA 10’s for $100 or less as they have devalued sharply the last month. Not even worth grading with PSA. Better bet with SGC.
@@carolinatarheels7903 agreed, topps flagship has become base juck wax with PSA pop reports for both soto and tatis. Low number colors and autos are the future investment cards for long term.
@@johnjackson4365 definitely and I wouldn't knock Tatis cards if I got them either I just meant that after grading that cuts into so much of the profit. That's why I've gone with SGC for quick flips on cards
@@carolinatarheels7903 LOL, I know. I'm hoping for 500 PSA submissions to make it back for March, in time for Baseball. Good luck and thanks.
Thanks for the transparency, Geoff. Fun video.
I really enjoy the invest education aspect your videos. Keep up the great work. Just getting back into the hobby cards and this has helped me to understand better values of my investments. Would love to see a video on investments on hobby boxes and cases!
Tell ebay to lower their fees. If only they would listen.
Ebay is going to suffer when this $600 tax limit goes into effect.
@@TrapHunt I think everyone will suffer from this. There’s just no “breathing room” at $600 for a 1099. I could see if they cut it in half even to $10K, $600 is just ridiculous.
@@tampahomeinvestorsllc7559 I will just make sure I am able to show a loss on everything. If I buy an item, I buy it with my money that has already been taxed, then they want me to pay personal property tax just for having it, then if I decide to sell it, they want tax yet again. Fu*k them. If I'm not allowed to break even or recoup any of my money, on paper, I will make sure I don't.
Back in 1986 when I was in high school I bought packs of 86 fleer basketball at a small town grocery store. Thirty cents a pack. No one knew back then what that set was going to turn into.
I traded a Jordan rookie for a Wade Boggs rookie because I was a Sox fan. The good ole days.
Love your channel Geoff. Keep going strong 💪💪💪💪 !!!!
Always love your intro and how the music blends into your opening!
I love how open you are about your downs. This is eye-opening. Thank you for putting your downs out here. Your ups are phenomenal!
This guy makes this crap up well in advance for shock and awe , he's a dumb junkwax of a collector
Hey Geoff,
Do you know how much you have invested total in cards?. How much are you up, or down?. Thanks for another good video
Awesome video, thank you for showcasing your shortcomings along with our victorious moves.
I wish I never watched this video. Those Murray's were mine. I only sold them at the time with Goldin because my wife and I were having our son and she was going to be at home with our son for 3 months after he was born. So my full time job income was the only income we would have for months. Thus why I sold them. Golding told me they were worth between 15k to 20k so I agreed to sell. Little did I know they would bury my lot in the back of the catalog for that auction and screw me over by never promoting my lot outside of putting it in the catalog. They should have sold for at least 3 times what I got for them. My son, my family, my other kids are always more important than cards. But I'm still heartbroken over having to sell them and for how little I got for them. Murray is my favorite player on my favorite team. :(
Then stop investing in worthless cardboard and plastic. This is a scammers market
Dumb comment. Clearly its not worthless when 1 card has 20k trade value. And the rest are worth at least that. By your logic, nfts are a scam, art is a scam. But your wrong they are not. Something is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. No one forces anyone to buy a card. I got completely screwed by goldin and that shouldn't happen to anyone. But I'm proof it does.
@@J_weather727 yea super funny. 👌
Ah thats a big bummer. At least you enjoyed them for awhile. Its important to always have a good chunk of cash in savings so in case of a situation like this you dont feel forced to sell all your cards
@@josh_7569 stop watching videos on them then and go get a job
I sold my Micheal Jordan psa 10 1985 Nike Promo for $20,000 @ the Dallas Show. I paid $850 for it 4 years ago
People are so stupid buying that "card" they are still finding piles of raw copies in set form still in the cellophane wrappers in warehouses because Nike couldn't give enough of them away in the 80's.
Sure, the 2003 SP Auto Jordan card is a Jordan auto after his playing days but have you heard of Exquisites? They're more coveted and valued higher than pretty much any of MJ's playing days auto cards except for the 1997-98 UD Game Jersey Auto which is in the millions. Bulls Uni On Card auto of Jordan is ALWAYS a hold.
Exactly, no one likes losing out on a trade but he shouldn’t try to salvage some dignity on it. Bad for sure as signed Jordan will always hold huge values.
Him trying to justify the trade even after he admits to it being a bad trade is ridiculous. Then he piles on with the “I know a huge MJ collector and he agrees with me”. Zero percent chance any real serious MJ collector would say his cards produced after his playing days aren’t as sought after. 2003-04 MJ exquisite cards are no brainers for collectors not to mention every other year through 2009-10. On top of that 2003-04 is LeBron, Wade, and Melo’s rookie year so that also adds to the value and collectibility of MJ’s within this particular set. Many other sets Upper Deck made throughout the subsequent years have extremely desirable and collectable MJs as well.
As someone who owns a few autographed jersey cards and collected as a kid, I don’t understand how there are so many limited edition cards of new players that are so ridiculously valuable. You would think values of proven, established players with proven results/careers would be far more valuable than they are. It must be it’s own high end market. Cards pulled from $20k boxes are going to have insane values I guess?
Kind of along the same lines I was thinking about autographs today. The market makes zero sense to me these days regarding them. They come out with hundreds of autograph cards in different quantities. And the ones with pink ink limited to 10 are worth way more than ones signed in blue limited to 99. Like what? An autograph is an autograph at least to me especially when talking about the exact same card style.
That Josh Allen Colossal Laundry tag. Good chance everyone’s favorite breaker Boomo99 originally pulled it. I know this because he was doing breaks of 3 or 4 cases at a time and I had Allen in the prior break and “only” hit an Allen colossal /25. The very next break he pulled not one, but TWO of the Allen Colossal RPAs /5. Considering there’s only 5 of them, there’s a good chance yours is one of two that was pulled by the legend himself in a span of about 10 mins. Go bills
Thanks for sharing the bad with the good as it helps to set other people's expectations that you won't win on every card, and at least if you sell a card for a loss, you can use it to your benefit on your taxes.
Blows my mind ur app is the #1 download and TOP RATED over Beckett and PSA ETC!!!! Tf-but also congrats 🙏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
the psa 10 jordan he said he got a really good deal at 250k just sold 156k
Fantastic year, especially with the growth of your business. I’m sure you’re reaching or surpassing your goals there as well. The Lebron will come back eventually. People who don’t have the money to wait or who are too nervous will dump it low and will kick themselves when it surpasses the price they originally paid. Long term hold that you’ll be profiting from in the future. Great video and content as always.
That card will never hit 265k again. It was the perfect storm at that time for prices to be truly crazy the way they were across the board.
I too bought a bunch of Kobe rookie card PSA 10s at the wrong time. Lost about 60% in value since. But hoping they’ll return to the value I bought them for in the long run.
They will be fine. Give them some time. He's an all time legend and has a HUGE fanbase!
I have never laughed so hard, not even at your Lonzo Ball collection, as I did at you trading that pop 1 jordan for bearded frat boy rookie.
Thanks for making me feel better about my life choices.
That jordan auto was 🤪
Comp was also September vs. end of the football season...
Great Video. Thank you for you honesty on your purchases. That really means a lot.
Well that answers my biggest question I always thought he just invested in sports cards primarily
Those kylers are amazing. His market is such a good buy right now. That price is such a steal. I'm so jealous
Love your videos. One suggestion....lower the volume on your music at the beginning of your videos. It's hard to hear what you are saying. Thanks for the vids.
That Jordan Geoff!!! Whatever helps you sleep at night! hahahaha!! Love your content!
keep it njoy watching ur sons videos neever knew u played baseball n had a card until i saw one of ur sons videos much love u show him
Hey Geoff great video. My Best purchases have all been the female GOATS autographs . I have made a killing buying and selling Serena, and Taurasi autos. Worst buys would have to be trout rookies. I have taken a beating this year buying before he got hurt. Great video!
My best of the year: bought a ‘18 bowman BGS 9 Ohtani for $15 and currently goes for $565
For people in the era of Jordan and before, the statement about cards issued after retirement being worth less seems strange to me. There may be analytics that prove that, but I have never worried about paying a premium price for a card just because it was a post retirement card, especially of a star from the 1990s or before, when autographs were certainly not as plentiful and many of those older sets do not hold up to time.
Yeah I don’t buy that either. An auto is an auto. Who cares if the player signed it while playing or after? It’s just another thing to nitpick or find anything to increase the value or justify a purchase to yourself.
Bruh I also thought nets were a lock for that championship I see Kevin’s foot on the line when I close my eyes at night. Lol love the content man keep rocking
Just got into sports cards . I really appreciate you out sharing all your knowledge with us? How should I decide what cards of my to get graded and what I should leave raw
Ya if any thing cards are going up and any bud on eBay has been going crazy !
You should buy a bunch of 1952 topps Mickey Mantle psa 10s or beckett 10s. They're gonna go up up up
I’ve been trying to sell 1 card all year and can’t get a deal done, insane that you can make so many big card deals in a year.
If you want it to sell you have to price it that way
You have the best shows ever congrates and Happy New year
I bought a 2005 Bowman Chrome Justin Verlander Red Refractor 1 of 1, graded psa 9 for $2,500.
thank you for your videos - very informative
You post good content it makes people happy
Am i the only one that thinks that Jordan RC does not look Gem Mint? I saw an edge on blue part with flaw.
I like it now you are making to I also think about my good and wrong move this year,but it is my first year to collect so I make a lot mistakes 😉
I'm So stocked for the Trade Show!! Thanks for all you do!!
This guy is smart and has dealt with Cards to know that kaboom was going to grade high but told the seller it was off center and has a dent in the corner. He just swindled that kid lol
OMG that Jordan Trade was a horrible trade lol. I'd never trade a Jordan bulls auto for base RCs of any player. Upper Deck cant even make Jordan Autos anymore in a Bulls Uni
Wow. Thank you for sharing this, Really liked the good, bad, good, bad alternating order of describing the different investments, very well thought out video, great video overall!
I would never trade a Michael Jordan auto card for James harden. I just wouldn't
Idk. I think LeBron rc cards are not done going up. He still has more accomplishments coming his way and not to mention when his son enters the league too. Its gonna get crazy 😜 🤪
nobody would lol
Tyler Murray is on point you did really well.
It's good to see you show the lows as well as the highs as it's show people that even someone as well versed as yourself can still make mistakes or have gambles not pay off. For me, i invested in 2019/20/21 rookies this year, so that in itself could be my biggest mistake but i feel there was a abundance of talent in these 3 years and many of these have superstar potential so i'm playing the long game on these 3 rookie classes 😁 Wait i just looked at my cards and i see a lot of D.J Wilson cards, Autos, patches etc... i remember getting them for next to nothing but last time i checked a few months ago he was down in the G League..... I know zero about him other than his cards were dirt cheap but even cheap is over paying if they're worth nothing lol
Who is DJ Wilson?
herbert in bgs what was you thinking man....PSA is the only way....Thanks for sharing love the vidoes
Really enjoyed the video entertaining wealth of information smashed the like button 👍
Can you do a $100 or $1k budget new investor video. Like you starting as a new investor and only got $100-$1k where do you start. I think it’s a cool concept I know there’s a lot of good deals out there
Great video. Appreciate you showing the bad with the good. Keep up the great content!
Congrats on that Kyler Murray lot! Beautiful… :-)
We ain’t forget when u was trying to
Ship out the Kyler Cards
Best investment a gold 3/10 Immanuel Quickley RC bought for 56USD with shipping sold privately for $1285CAD with shipping to IL . Worst I bought a box of illusions in Jan cracked it open what a load of junk paid $90CAD for a couple of blasters ugh NEVER AGAIN value $0.00
When you make next years video will you include the recent horrible trade of the Lebron TC ref BGS 9.5 for the Zion cards? Even though it was done technically in 2021, I think you can add it to 2022's video
That's why they call it investing!! You take your risks. Do your research..and I don't go off of my heart. I remember as a 12 yr old buying my first card, I bought a Claude LaRose OPC 1969-70. ..for a pack of Popeye candy cigarettes. Why him...because he was my mother's cousin. And from there it went on and on. But that's why I enjoy the hobby. I've enjoyed it all..I've bartered, ive sold..bought way more. And hopefully my son goes both feet in. Good luck..it's a blast!!
Thanks for letting us rookies know that even the pro make mistakes.
He's a rookie just like you but with more money.
Who in their right mind trades a pop 1 auto of Jordan for a hated superstar with no ring.
The guy also went all in on Lonzo Ball from the beginning. You never buy rookies right away, 99/100 times you will hold the bag in the long term.
Even if you're not in it for money like me, you are still going to be aware of market fundamentals to save money for even more cards. An experienced collector is never making these types of mistakes.
This channel though is really fun since you can observe the mindset of brand new collectors.
A pro would of never traded that Jordan auto for a Harden card. Ever
If he's a pro your still in highschool , the guys an idiot
Hey Geoff awesome video! Question for you.. for example with the Lebron James refractor how you paid 265k and there are sales of 85k now, do you consider buying more now to lower the average cost of them as a whole? Thanks much! Really enjoy your content
cost averaging a solid approach to be sure..... unless LeBron continues his social media lunacy tarnishing his attraction ....
Yep. Cost averaging is a good strategy (as long as they don’t drop more).
@@SportsCardInvestor Ok! Thank you for the super quick response!

My best investment was a Connor McDavid Young guns PSA 10 bought at $900. My worst investment was a Justin Herbert Mosaic silver PSA 10 bought at $1200, and recently sells for $750.
Keep that McDavid until he retires, if he gets anywhere close to Gretzky's records that card has even more room to grow. Look at how Ovechkin has passed Crosby in recent years as he is threatening Gretzky's goal record.
Love the vids keep it up 👍
Its actually ✌✌overwhelming when you barely know someone who does his work with sincerity and precision, thanks for the sales and delivery of my sportscards

I don’t see how 200k for a non auto LeBron rookie was ever an option.
The harden for that Jordan Auto u had lol!
An update in 2024 reviewing his deals now and they were absolutely brutal. Lebron James Chrome refractor PSA 10 he paid 265K now worth 27K. Michael Jordan fleer rookie PSA 10 which he said "he timed perfectly" He paid only 218k now 140K. These are just a few bad investments that he has made in this single video.
Hi there, iv just started watching your channel, great stuff , I love it, How much will it cost to get your cards checked and value, thanks
I love the content ..As always your one of the best..
What is the move on the losses? Sell and reinvest or hold and hope?
I’m investing into Darius garland this year
Kyrie is laughing at that Goat trade haha.
Wow, making deals like this would scare me to death. But, I must realize if I was financially able to do deals like this, it wouldn't be scary!
18:26 How is it a PSA 10 when the top to bottom centering is 70/30? PSA needs to be canceled
Bought a bryce Harper first bowman chrome refractor auto for 250 sold it right after he won MVP
How you described picking up the Jordan is the best advice I try to pass on. Do your homework, stalk your prey and pick off the low fruit. 🤪
I don't call them bad investments, I call them long term investments.
No doubt, especially that Herbert. He talked the guy down so much and I don’t think that guy knew what he had and then to get a Gem Mint out of it was a steal.
@@carolinatarheels7903 that herbert was a steal & even got a good grade, but if it did get a bad grade I would just hold on to it longer cause herbert's career is just starting & his prices will increase.
What does Pop 1 mean?
You looking into any ant edwards investments?
VIRTUAL! LET'S FREAKINGGG GOOOO!!!!
I bought a box of 2006 s/f special endorsements and got a Derek Jeter auto.
What about the rest of the refractors of Lebron you bought? We’re they as bad?
Jeff what kind of technology do you know?
I thought you had mentioned before that you purchased another Fleer Jordan Psa 10 when it was very high and crashed? Wouldn't that have been one of the worst buys or do I not remember this correctly? Why no mention if that is the case.
You’re not supposed to call him out on that 🤣🤣
Wow must be nice to be able to drop 200,000 on a card. Congrats on the Kyler Murray lot
Great ad for your product

@10:12 look at that Kyler Murry card it has a basketball logo looking patch ??
Jeff if you are interested in a Gold Tom Brady Kaboom, Dec. 9th it will be on the front page of Goldin Auction #7/10 - 7 superbowl rings IMO!!!!!
