Monta Ellis question

[nbacard]

i was expecting if hes numbers drop, his rc 's sell value would also dropped but i guess not, would hes cards ever go down as low as felton?

Tough to predict future card values - actually, near impossible. I thought for sure that KG's values would go up after he won the title, but sadly, they haven't :-(

Card Value has not been always rise or down whenever players has been great.

Because of Fait-Accompli .
(It means price doesn't move even if someone or something effects because most of people already has known about that)

For example, peak of value of Lebron James was rookie season.

Because most of people thought LBJ would be Next MJ.

But LBJ Exquisite hasn't risen any longer.
(Of course, there was some economic recession but value was much depended on popularity)


Another Example is Kobe Bryant.

I saw Kobe Bryant Chrome RC was sold around 600$ in my country.
(It was around 1997)

But never happened like that since that time.




Like this, I think price of Monta hit the peak already..even if Monta becaomes Great Player in the future.

sorry it wasnt a photoshoot rc, it was a topps rc auto of ronald murray, my mistake

[raiderfan679]

probably 15, with the way jackson has been playing, maggette hungry for his pts off the bench, and jamal doing well now.

[nbatoppspoker]

if magette and crawford isnt in the warriors, you think monta can score 25-30 easy?

[raiderfan679]

probably 25 max, i dont see monta being a complete scoring machine yet. 25 is probable if he got 40 min

[raiderfan679]

oh yeah, i have a ellis autographed jersey in person, are u by any chance interested in it?

[nbatoppspoker]

hi, not right now, only want to get his rc's, did you see the game against blazer, three clutch shots in a row, that was sweet, by the way , did you got that auto when he made an appereance in verizon in milipitas? is he really 6'3 up close , he seem shorter than that

[themanishere]

He can if he returns to his pre-injury form. He was clutch last game and once his jumper comes back to where it was, watch out...Monta-to-Biedrins is going to be one hell of a combo.

As for his cards, really still cannot get many autos of his (if any) for under $20 on average, and it is even worse for BINs - I would have thought, when he missed time, his prices would have gone down at least somewhat, but they didn't really. Makes it harder to collect him for someone who doesn't have the cash all of the time.
