Meanwhile while my perfect-looking Lebron rookie has been waiting for PSA to play catch up, the PSA 10s on eBay have dropped from a peak of $14,000 to $6,000 since February. Not that $6000 isn't far more than I paid for it raw a few year ago, but a lot of key modern cards have cooled off pretty dramatically since February.

His Topps Chrome was 2k before COVID peaked at 40k+ now 23k. Still a huge profit. The problem with LeBron is his injury and the Lakers going from preseason favorites to about the 5th best team. If the Lakers happen to repeat, his cards will go back up.

I'm going to assume that LeBron's main cards haven't gone down yet. By this I mean his SP Authentic, Exquisite, Ultimate Collection, etc. Am I right?

And I'm impressed with some of the money you guys have been making on here! Keep up the good work!
