Maybe it's connected to the decline in Bitcoin values?

Yup! Definitely one of the reasons.... However, i think this 1952 Topps complete set was a steal. $74K https://goldin.co/item/1952-topps-co...le-jackiemmebb

Goldin advertised this card as the most important modern card, and the holy grail of the card hobby. A bit of humble pie looks good on them. This card is trash, and it's nice to see the market didn't fall for their advertising blitz.

I'd comfortably say with the degree of derision the card got from many people it will never sell for a profit. But more likely someone will find this post in 10 years and mock me for being an idiot.

The Lakers patch doesn't look like fabric.

According to posters on blowout, the breaker who opened the card initially was rumored to have dropped it, damaging a corner. So the card might have graded a PSA 6, in which case, the owner requested it get an AUTH grade rather than a number.

On the other hand, Goldin hyped an uggo POS made a few months ago into a big payday, regardless of whether it is $2.4 or $5.0. He's got us talking about it and about his AH, so from a PR standpoint the sale was a rousing success. Now, whether the buyer is going to profit is another story, but I want lots more shiny, expensive trinkets to distract the monied 'bros. As far as I am concerned, let all the 'bros buy all the shiny crap and stay out of vintage...at least until I am ready to sell.

Could have been the damage to the patch window. That surface wrinkle there would have dropped the grade to a PSA 5 or so, IMO. But yes, those logomen, according to Panini, are the original patches from game worn LeBron James Cavaliers, Heat, and Lakers jerseys. The Lakers one looks different because they now make logoman patches differently, I guess.

A box of these cards. And I use the term box very loosely, contained 10 cards each and they went for 15K a box. Drake (whoever the hell he is) bought 14 boxes for a miserly sum of over 200K looking for that card and came up empty. Wonder if he threw all of those 140 cards away?
https://twitter.com/kileymcd/status/...141827041.html Christ on a crutch, Panini, as well as other manufacturers are making a mockery of the word hobby. Ugh, Butch

Even the print on Le Bron James looks likes crap. Or I am developing a vision disorder.
Really pretty comical all around. Not that I wouldn't mind accepting 2 million from someone. Quote:
