No amount of money could ever replace the pure joy that kids had from collecting, trading, flicking, and scrambling these hockey cards back in the 1970's. As kids, we didn't care very much at all about a cards condition ... it was all about collecting the complete series for that particular year, and then checking the players/teams off on each of the checklist cards.
Do more of Hockey Card History!
You and your brother fist fighting over that Gretzky rookie brought be back to my childhood. That’s what it’s all about. ❤️
Gretzky's rookie card went for 1.3 million in nov. 2020 goldin auctions
3.75m recently
It seems like the person who bought that card has more money than he has brains.
Maybe a follow up video, showing same cards and their appreciation.
The last auction sale of a PSA - Mint 10, OPC Gretzky rookie was over 4.5 Million CAN
Hey Ken. Thanks for doing these videos.
Everyone: cool cards
Me: oh crap I can get a fortune out of this
Absolutely love the show!!
Its this first and only video i enjoyed from sport net .
Nice cards buddy
LMAO, "some mensa candidate..."
Very cool video and also man you have an incredibly interesting card collection.
Awesome Ken, love it!!!
I have a entire binder dedicated to the top goalies of the 90's... Including Patrick Roy, Felix Potvin, Martin Broudour and much more. I also have Ray Bourque number 7 cards.
It’s a great hobby I always like to talk about hockey sticks bringing back hockey history.
I have Jean Beliveau and Al Arbour 1953-54 Parkhurst Rookie Cards. They are not in the greatest shape because my dad used a corner sticker that they used in old photo books to place them in a book. I have the Gretzky too but it has soft corners and a slight indent on the top left corner. Need to get them graded just to see.
yeah he severely undervalued his 99 rc
Hey I have a question how would I go about sending out Wayne Gretzky card to get graded
I know someone who had two Wayne Gretzky rookie cards when he was a kid. He said he used them on his bicycle spokes with the clothes pegs lol 😂
Awesome!
You just told the story of my collecting life, except I don't have that Bobby Orr,.
I had the Orr rookie card in excellent condition, like an idiot, sold it in 1985 to a card store for $400. I had not done my homework. Afterword he quickly led me out of the store saying he could sell it for $1200. Next heartbreak story (of three). I met the photographer of the Gretzky rookie card in 2000. He offered me two uncut sheets of OPC 1979-80. I could have had them for $1000 bucks but turned it down!!! Third heartbreaker. In 1965 I saw these 'tall' hockey cards for sale at the local variety store. NO ONE was buying them so I bought the whole box. These were the Tall Boys, the Howe alone today is worth over $1000. Sadly I gave them away in 1990, I will NOT say to whom or why! I have more stories but I have to commit suicide now.
haha lol, don't do it man, my brother turned down a mint Mario Lemieux RC in 1990 for his binder of pro set commons.
I've got a Gretzky rookie card. I was 10yo when I bought it on a pack of bubble gum. It's in better shape than Ken's. I actually had about 4 or 5 of them back then but only found the one card in my box of cards when they started becoming $$$ in the late 80s.
As soon as he said not so bad to 200-300 bucks I cried because my best hockey card is worth 15$
I got prestine cards I got rookies all your top 20 I probably got eight of them that haven't been touched in 30. How do I get them graded
I have about 100 Patrick Roy Rookie cards.Bunch of 9s 8s 7s bunch raw.Did have a ksa10.Had to sell it though.
You should make a follow up to this video with today’s prices
I have the Gretzky rookie card, but unfortunately pen scribbling on the back side 🤤
I give him 300 for gretzky no problem..
I remember seeing two Gretzky rookies at a card store when I was a kid. One for $200 the other for $300
Wow
At this store by my house its 6000 dollars
@@jerseycrazy3465 is it just me or is it crazy to pay thousands of dollars for a scrap of cardboard?
All
My cards are mint 😊from early 70-96 big collection
Mine are all from around 1995. Not worth squat compared to these? Got one "'94-95 FLEER ULTRA NHL All Star Game" with Wayne Gretsky. Worth anything? Slightly worn edges, no creases.
No they ant worth shyt
There in the mass produced junk wax era
Just found mint Dryden rookie at a yard ale in toronto,. not graded.
The sports card industry is booming since the pandemic started. It’s a legit stock market with tangible cardboard art...Your Gretzky could easily sell for $500; the poorest condition ones are creeping up to a $1000 graded.
Most of the Old Hockey Cards haven't come up to where the other cards are at I've got a lot of 60s and 70 stuff most of it hasn't gone up in years
The amount of wayne Gretzky rookie card fakes on the market now make it almost impossible to get a genuine unless you know what to look for or get an expert to look at it before buying one. As far as i know there are 2 variations of the fake ones. The second one is the hardest to spot.
Technically a PSA 10 doesn’t have to be perfect. It can be off center or have a slightly different imperfection in another sub-grade and still receive an overall 10 or you could own the company and get your 8’s to 10’s for free, lol. It’s good to mention here there are two examples of his rookie the topps and o-pee-chee which is typically around 2x more than the topps version. It’s also one of the most forged cards in the hobby. There are ways to tell and if you’re interested in adding a Gretzky to your collection Raw, I’d investigate how to tell before getting suckered. That raw Gretzky probably grades a PSA 3 and today a few years later the o-per-Cher’s comps in similar grade are selling for around 1-1.3k depending on eye appeal, time of day, and if the buyer is color blind or left handed…j/k. The topps sell around 500-900 today. It’s one of my favorite cards. I got pretty lucky to snag a raw card that looked mint before the market erupted for $900 and sent in to CSG in their infancy when they were the strictest reputable graders on the planet. It got an 8.5 which was the highest graded Gretzky in CSG’s database, I haven’t checked recently. This would easily fetch a 9 from PSA which last sold for 60k. 900 dollar card, 35 dollar grading fee, potential 5 figure profit. If you don’t own a Gretzky, you better get you one. 😎
I have a 1990 Wayne Gretzky proset card, haven't gotten it graded or anything, I have the whole proset 90-93 I think lol, even have whole platinum set, Fred Rogers ·penguins #297 proset platinum idk what to do with all these cards tho??
I have 2 boxes of unopened factory sealed plastic 89_90 score NHL cards .. I think theres 50 packs in each box .. Jagr rookie Year Lindros RC in a old uniform along with many others brodeur etc... .. I had 3 and opened 1 to see cards inside .. Is this worth anything ?
Steve Jobs who are you talking to?
No sadly they are not. I have 30 lindros cards from score, and I could probably get $20 bucks for them. Although if one of them was graded a BGS black label, then it could have some value.
unfortunately no pretty much anything 89-90 onwards isn't worth a dime (theres a few exceptions) but its mostly all mass produced junk as the market became oversaturated, good for pc but not for reselling
I had Ken Dryen and Guy Lafleur rookie and a Black Lotus for Magic the gathering. All stolen from my locker in Vancouver. It's sad that my city has become a cesspool for crime. So, I gave up on that, moved and created a better life in a safer crime free country. lol
I hate this part you got to get your cards professionally graded
I know someone that has a 9.8 graded rookie Bobby Orr , the only out there , how much is it worth ?
I have some really good cards and sets from 60's 70's 80's and 90's. I would like to sell them. I have a Bobby Orr team 2 Allstar card auto graphed also.
Priceless and doesn't even keep the Gretzky in a one touch.....
Bergeron Young Guns 🔼
I have a signed wayne gretzky game stick......wonder what that's worth and where can I take it to tell me and possibly sell it for me .....anyone know?
get it authenticated if you’re gonna sell it. i suggest JSA, but beckett is good too. then put it on ebay
I think my most valuable card is probably my jagr super rookie, but even that isn’t worth much
Do you know if collectors avenue is safe
I have a limited edition Stefan Liv card personally signed card number 15/25. Anyone knowing the worth?
Whooo
@@jklaas4987 Stefan Liv, a goalkeeper from Sweden that died from a planecrash.
Worth little bit more than a Stefan, Patrik RC
$1
No they cannot,
Im the alive proof,Got all sets from the 60s to 1989 in triples and more.
Born and raised in Hockey town/Montreal 24 cups.
Cards are still too easy to find plus most hobbyists and collectors love the chase more than actually pay a stupid 500$ for a card from their hard earned money.
They are around.
It takes a dumbass to pay 4000$ for an Ovechkin rookie where you can find all over specially in garage sale bulks.
Where the mama was cleaning the son room and the garage from"useless" stuff not needed no more as son lives with dad now lol
I find so much from garage sales.
I’ve got a Stevie Y rookie I got from my father lol
I have one as well
I have a 1910 newsy lalonde PSA7 that is worth more than all of these combined.
except the Orr probably
Grading companies don't want to grade older cards high today
Yea they are pop controlling nowadays
What’s the address? Just wondering for research purposes
I have a gretzky psa 4
Hackey Kurd
You get a perfect 10
Do nfl card history
Picked up a ov rookie in a trade.
I think he did seven of them in a row Stanley Cups
Not joking I have 5 Patrick Roy rookie cards. And I swear that one is in MINT condition. Growing up I lived for Roy cards.
Same with my Roy card, I truly believe it's mint. Hands haven't touched it in 25 years along with my Mario rookie. I think my Roy could be a 10 candidate, my Mario may be in the 9 range. That dang rust color on the back of that set, makes any imperfections stand out.
@@Actionronnie my aunt worked at O-Pee Chee. I have rolls off un-cut cards from '82-'88 not full sets but some really good cards mixed in.
I have 2 myself, but as with a lot of my cards, the centring is where I think they run into trouble. Otherwise the cards are in great shape
Massively Rich, ok my gosh so rich.
I sold a Mike bossy rookie for 500.000
Lol. Shared custody
Are the old SGC slabs out of 100? It was a bit confusing when you said PSA 10 is 52k then the SGC 10 is poor lol
I’m not sure but I think it’s because sgc is easy to get a 10 but since psa is hard to get a good grade it’s probably rare
Yea SGC is out of 100
i have box of o pee che hockey cars not sure what there worth all still in origional box
$200 Mark Recchi
Gretzky rc isnt the holy grail lol
How do they know it's not in mint condition ??? Do they put them under a microscope ????
Yeah they have graders look at the card
Okay fine, but I will never shell those ridiculous amounts of money for a scrap of cardboard.
I have a 78.79 hockey card wayne gretzky pee wee I mint condition for sale
O pee chee
Did u sell it?
bruh why arent the cards in one touches
Why people like one touches so much? Most of my cards are in regular sleeves
Perfect condition is idiotic. If you enjoy owning the card for its intrinsic value, that's all that matters in my opinion. I love collecting beer cans, in the park, mostly for the deposit value. 25 empty cans gets me a free beer. You can't drink a Gretzky rookie.
Do you what you can do with 1.25 million dollars?
@@bmoshareholderappleshareho855 All the Punjabi and African immigrants coming to Canada will never pay anything for cards. Since there is complete intent to bring in as many of these people as possible, hockey cards, and hockey itself will become obsolete.
Hi ken I am looking for someone to give me an appraisal my hockey card collection
3 cards in a new pack. Talk about getting ripped off
They're a buck...
Pay a dollar after buying a drink, the average common is 50 cents- $1 for common superstars; and then some of the inserts are priced at 10$+.
And the $ you spend getting them "graded" will be more $ than the card is worth
Pokemon PSA grading i think is 75$. Probably not far from that for hockey cards.
Bro it’s like $15 to grade with PSA. The Gretzky card is worth thousands in a graded holder
Hockey cards are 2nd fiddle to comic books.
Period. The end.
No.....only knowledge can make you rich
Well it costs $100 to get cards graded now so....
@@rosseshockeystuf 10 card minimum.
Nb..ni
Not like baseball, but better than football
my dad had 9 gretzky rookie cards as a kid but got rid of all of them he could be rich now
My aunt had one. She lost it though. 🤣
ill bet i had 30 of them. ugh. they were in rough shape tho
yuck Montreal heavy episode
Shame on you
This whole industry is a sham. Get out... sell em all walk away. No one makes money in this unless you're already loaded. N if you're just into losing money for the fun of it. Send me some money.
Paying 1.25 million dollars for a little scrap of cardboard? You are better off buying a condo and renting it out. That seems much wiser.
