    Kind of stupid, but I bought them looking for a quick flip after they won the title and he got Finals MVP. I guess Dwyane Wade had other ideas. They were going for $160-180 before the finals- the only one to sell after Miami won went for $78. I bought them for like $50 each raw so I'm not too concerned, but if I can't get $120 a piece then I'll probably hold for another year when he gets hot again. He looked nervous in his first Finals.

    edit to say that I'll probably keep one of the 10s
  • it will probably go down as one if the larger f-ups in finals history. Up 2-0 and 13 pts in game 3 with 6+ minutes left....IT WAS OVER!!! The key part of that sentence is WAS.....I too have recently bought about 100 mixed Dirk rookies and sent them in for the grading special. First batch of 40 just came back...only a couple 10's and 3/4 are 9's and some 8's....

    I would like to see the card when you get them back.

    Was it the 9 or 10 that was going for 160$?

    He's a top flite player and will not be going anywhere.

    Good luck

    I remember Peyton Manning's cards took a major downward spike after they lost in the playoffs, but they've slowly risen since then and should continue to rise as the season approaches, so hopefully Nowitzki's cards will do about the same.
