Thanks @Matt26 and @GarnettFan4Life so how much would you spend right now on a Wemby auto?

If you like him as a player and plan to collect him long term....... spend whatever you want.......if its to flip and resell later......now is probably the worst time to buy.
Once Fanatics get the NBA licence in full.......these player licenced autos (no team logos) will probably go down and the ones in proper team unis will be worth a bit more.
Look at Zions cards......his cards were white hot and were selling for huge amounts.......now can be had for 20% of those original prices.
Yeah Wembys quite a few cheeseburgers away from Zion![]()

20% ? That's not too bad. I thought he may have been down to 5%. His card prices especially were absolutely insane in late 2020 early 2021.If you like him as a player and plan to collect him long term....... spend whatever you want.......if its to flip and resell later......now is probably the worst time to buy.

I feel bad for those who wandered into the NBA hobby in late 2020 early 2021 and bought into all the hype. Even Jordan and LBJ would still be down 50% from their absolute peak.Facts!
But comparable hype-wise - Zion has so many people in the hole financially that it might have been the main cause of the 2 year market downturn. People had so much $ tied up - only just showing signs now that the overall market is improving! Nuts!
This is the crazy aspect of the hobby. Perhaps a psychologist could explain it. It makes little sense that someone like Wembanyama is 20 times more expensive than most HOF players. Fomo?Wemby is also a stiff breeze away from snapping in half....... one of Zion's farts could put him out for 6 months.
Id love to see someone like Wemby live up to the hype and have an all time legends career.......the issue is there are 50+ players out there that have had these types of careers and sell for 5% of what Wemby's cards currently do.
