Hello Guys,
I am new here so i need some help. A month ago i dusted off my school days basketball collection and i decided to get back to getting some cards.
I bought some packs and a couple of boxes and today i decided to buy a couple of nice cards. I got 3 actually. Harden, Griffin and Holiday RC 2009-10 Crown Royale 9.5 overall grade.
The following are the images. the reason why i am posting this is cause i feel i got ripped off on the Griffin card. i noticed after i paid 165 dollars that the Auto rate is 8. is that bad? The overall card rate is 9.5. how much is the card really worth with an 8 auto?
I paid 38 for the Holiday and a 100 for the Harden.
Let me know what you guys think so i can buy with less stress next time
opps i guess i did not attached the images properly.
the following are the links.
PC Players: Damian Lillard, Klay Thompson and Andre Iguodala
Currant set chase: 12/13 NT Dual Matchups Prime (71/100), Absolute Team Tandems Prime (12/25), Innovation Stat Line Prime (7/25)

i am guessing people are seeing the long post and ignoring
I just want to know if the signature score affects the price as much as the other scores do on a rated card.

I don't think you got a bad deal on the Griffin, at the least the card is slabbed and in Gem MT Condition, you got it for a good bit under book value, honestly I don't know much about the grades as far as the auto goes, but I wouldn't be disappointed with it. I am a Griffin fan though so my opinion could be bias lol. Nice grabs on both of them though. How did you do on the packs and boxes?
Thanks!
Horrible hits on the boxes keeping in mind i am currently living in Saudi Arabia. so i had to pay a load for shipping.. to open a box after 2 weeks of waiting for it to ship and get nothing is a truly unique feeling.. either way, i enjoyed opening them packs again.

What boxes did you go with? Sorry to hear no good hits. I hate when that happens but atleast I can get more if I wanted within a couple days. That would be aggravating having to wait weeks!
well, i did not know any better and got a couple of 2011-12 Panini Hoops NBA Basketball Hobby Boxes.. got a couple of Autos of players i do not even know lol.
i am planning to get a box or 2 now, what brand do you recommend i get? i basically collect anything at this point - in a few months i will start concentrating on one thing (like getting the complete set of Crown Royale RCs)

Depends on what kind of money your working with, the 2012-13 Prestige and the 2012-13 Threads are both affordable and can produce pretty nice results. If your looking to spend $100 or more there are several choices, I haven't opened any but the new Contenders look pretty nice. The Prizm boxes have a nice amount of packs to open for the money but I can't seem to pull anything out of them.
