Questions about Matrix RC Wade/James/Bosh

[knotinmud12]

I have one of these cards, as well as one each of the one with Wade/James/Anthony and James/Wade/Milicic
They look mint to me, have been in the sleeves and toploaders since I got them 4 years ago.
My question is, what are the values on them, and should I keep them as is or take a chance at grading them?
If I were to grade them, how much would I be looking at from PSA?

I should also note that I do not collect basketball and am not a big follower of the sport, either. Just seemed like a good investment at the time.

in terms of values on them, the value is worth what someone is willing to pay.

My question is how is the market for graded cards right now? If I decide to grade this would it make it more valuable in the future? I think it would get a solid 9

[Djposterboy]

if i remember correctly...the lebron rookies are from like $6-$8 for the ones with nobody else good on them...$12-$15 for ones with a good 2nd player....and there were 1 or 2 worth right around $25...i believe it had the one was lebron,melo,and wade and the other may have been the lebron,wade,bosh

I do not go to shows or collect much other than buying out collections on ebay or sealed boxes/cases but to me the graded markets is non-existent.But my personal thoughts have always been if it is not say mid 80's and earlier for basketball or a multi hundred dollar card, I do not see the point of grading it. Keep it crisp and in a good storage case. If you want to sell it i dont think the grade is going to bring in much additional $.

if you get a 9 it would probably lower the value anyway. Better off selling those as is

[xavieronly1]

Getting a 9 will sell almost the same as raw copy, but you lose money from the grading. I wouldn't just send 1 card to grade when it is like $10 card. Maybe it would be good idea to wait until you have 100 cards to grade, and tag this card alone.

Thanks for the input everyone.

doesn't really looks like anyone gave a bv for those cards.....
The non-graded cards in beckett...Lebron/Wade/Bosh jumped up to $100 when they all signed with the Heat. I believe the Wade/Lebron/Carmelo is around $25-30 and the 3rd one you listed I think around 15-20.

Grading...I always check to see what the cards go for on Ebay; but that's just me. I don't hit too many shows in my area so not sure on how well cards like that go for in person. I do a lot of Ebay stuff.
hope that helps.

I noticed when the trio James/Wade/Bosh signed with miami that card went for over $100 + but I it looks like it's coming down and averaging around $60 $70 from what i'v been seeing. If a BGS 9.5 hits ebay it might sell a little better but I would sell it now if i was you as the value looks to be coming down. I'm waiting it out myself until they reach $30 or so as I need one for my wade collection lol.

Mine just sold for $70 tonight (can't post links yet, or else I'd link ya). Pretty excited about that, wish I would have found it in the box I did back when Bosh/James signed, but oh well.
