Basketball collectors have had it rough this year. After a strike cut products short last year things seemed to be stagnant this year as well. All this cash in the pockets of high end collectors and nothing to pull it out of their pockets with. Even with a combined rookie class, nothing seemed to be able to gain momentum. You had your Kyrie Irving and Anthony Davis autographs in threads, and those saw some action but nothing really moved the hobby interest needle.
The Upper Deck company saw some success by introducing a modern version of a legendary Fleer insert run from the 1990′s that resulted in a few collectors chasing precious metal gems. The rarer versions had basketball product moving in hobby shops but the boxes soon had collectors out priced as they hit $450 a box. One of the worst things about the hobby is that when product is bad you can’t give it away but if a product is too good it gets so inflated that collectors can’t find or afford it.
