I had a pretty nice newer basketball card collection and I think many of you would be shocked to see what kids are spending on new 'Exquisite' basketball cards. Rookies who have never even played go for more than 1000.00. They came out when Lebron, Carmello, and Wade were RCs and the Lebron rc goes for 5-10k which is insane. Anyways I had a huge KG collection along with many others and sold most of them after he got traded to the Celtics. As soon as I started selling them I began to get emails from all around the world asking if I would ship to their country, so I changed my NBA listings to be shipped world wide and sold to more different countries than I can name, it was a lot of fun, I made way more money, and never got ripped off once which I was shocked about. So I think what I learned is that when it comes to cards there is a market for everything, and even though the NBA currently sucks it has a massive world wide appeal.
