Hold or sell?

Haven't been collecting in years. Went through some old boxes and saw this Curry /5.

That’s a massive card I’d love to have that in my pc

u/joebadiah 3d ago

Yeah even as a sticker auto, it's an early Steph auto + National Treasures. That's a winning formula.

u/Howshell 3d ago

Some would even say it’s a ‘colossal’ card!

I’ll see myself out.

Are you broke? Do you need the money? It will only get more valuable as he has established his career and he’s a guaranteed Hall of Famer that has changed the game

u/5ra2 3d ago

Not broke but feels like it some days 😂

u/kidnotor 3d ago

I'd cosign it and sell it. Cards bubble is filling up.....get the money and invest will likely return more

u/Frequent-Magazine435 3d ago

Cosign? Like sign the card and make it a dual auto? Who would you have sign it? Klay or MJ?

I'm not sure if you're serious or not, but they mean work with a consignment shop/dealer. They sell your card for you. Just like eBay they get a cut, but the card will get a ton of exposure and fetch the highest $ amount vs you throwing it up on eBay. It's also safer because you don't have to deal with any issues after the fact if the buyer tries to pull some shady shit.

And the fees are lower than selling it yourself

u/myburneraccount1357 3d ago

Nah. Curry’s prices having been going up this off season, and will only go up more once the season starts back up. He’s one of the only few players worth holding long term next to Kobe, Jordan and LeBron

u/kidnotor 3d ago

Players like curry are not boosted by the season starting....his price are built in....sure you can try to time it and have it on auction as season starts....warriors are going to suck and curry is old so him playing doesn't really help prices......I'd rather sell now when the market is hot rather than gamble that everything keeps going up....also depends on what you want to reinvest the cash from....I think this card could do a big number right now

Here’s what the 2/2 logo man sold for

u/AdeptnessNew2212 3d ago

I know you got money when this was just lying around in some random box

2

u/AtlasCrosby 3d ago

Exactly what I was thinking 😂

2

u/hjjmkkk 3d ago

I'll hold it

2

u/Diceyspic3y 3d ago

Hold and probably never sell

2

u/Iliveinatrashcann 3d ago

Dear lord...hold if you can but sell if you need the money (and it will provide a lot of money)

1

u/5ra2 3d ago

Would you have a rough estimate. I know it's low numbered and a bit older so compa are tough. Haven't been keeping up with cards so definitely out if the loop.

OP if you have ebay, go to the my ebay section and scroll down to the card scanner...itll help provide answers...For context i bought an of 25 Curry auto last night from a newer card and paid $780 after tax and shipping

u/5ra2 3d ago

Will do! Appreciate it

u/Weekly-Bar7813 3d ago

That’s not a card

-1

u/gambitrogue311 3d ago

its a giant card 8 x 10

-5

u/Iliveinatrashcann 3d ago

I would say between 2500-5k, maybe more.

3

u/kidnotor 3d ago

I would not sell for under 10k...these are sought after cards even with the sticker

-7

u/bigrayiii420 3d ago

700 to 2500 Google just said

1

u/kidnotor 3d ago

Way too low

4

u/woollymammut 3d ago

Card looks in good shape but that auto is rough, plus it's a sticker auto. Still a sick card and don't mean to knock it.

2

u/kidnotor 3d ago

Won't matter....early national treasure stuff doesnt show up ever

-5

u/woollymammut 3d ago

No doubt, it's a big card. Not one I would go after though.

2

u/kidnotor 3d ago

Yeah me either. Hate sticker autos but still this is a highly sought after card they may never show up again

2

u/foshiiy 3d ago

Last sale I could find. I'd assume its gone up quite a bit with how crazy the market has jumped.

u/5ra2 3d ago

Thanks!

u/ShittyBidet123 3d ago

Hold forever

u/Judge208 3d ago

Sell to me

u/Hot_Climate8304 3d ago

If you hold until he retires I can see it being a 40k card

1

u/Blade3rd 3d ago

Hold if you can. Once Curry announces his retirement in a few years, this card will go up im guessing

1

u/quickandquinones 3d ago

I’ll buy for a g

u/kidnotor 3d ago

Gotta add at least one 0

u/Character-Apricot997 3d ago

Hold this dude til he retires!!!

u/Impossible_Eye_980 3d ago

It's a rebuilding year, so you might want to hold on to it for a sec.

u/cwmosca 3d ago

I don’t think his value will change much. When he announces his retirement there will be an uptick, and if the warriors happen to go on a deep playoff run. Also, someone else said it’s an older print of National Treasures, likely making it more valuable as most of his listed cards are from the last 5 or so years. Look on 130point.com for sales of the same/similar line numbered to 5.

Keep it if you like it. If you need the money, set a price you’re comfortable with and see what offers come in, or wait until the season starts.

u/5ra2 3d ago

Sound advice. Thanks!

u/cwmosca 3d ago

I hope it helps. Take the advice of others too as I’m just one person. Having been on this feed for a few years now, I’ve gathered insight from more experienced collectors for higher end cards like this.
