Baked Alaskan: Yes I collect cards from the 4 major league sports, more so baseball and then basketball. What's your fancy?

rednaz23:
I was trying to find someone that knew a little about Basketball as I have a rare (I think LOL) Item.
I cant find any info with google or ebay on this particular item.

I have an uncut sheet of Shaq rookie cards. I even talked to a couple sports cards shop here in town and they never knew it even existed LOL

But was thinking of selling but wanted some info on it like just how rare is it and maybe whats it worth..

Baked Alaskan: what company? I had heard someone on a talk show a while back that claimed that some uncut sheets are actually worth less money

Vikings: No problem, just cut them up!

Czuch Chuckers:

Yikes !
No Way LOL

Vikings:

I find that hard to believe....
But cant question it till I find info on this matter. Gonna take some pics so I can show it off a little bit.

Baked Alaskan: No!! Don't cut them up! They are worth much more together! You do have a rare find. May I ask the circumstances of how you came across this find?

Also, let me know what kind of cards they are (company: Fleer Ultra, Upper Deck, Stadium Club, etc.) How big is the sheet, 5x6?

I can pass this info a long to a friend of mine and either he or someone he knows should know...

rednaz23: in the 90's collecting got so big that the companies started pumping out more cards and un cuts, especially non hobby, Shaq was a known commoditee like garnet and james, so they pumped out even more, you're right tho not to cut them up, and it might be worth quite a lot, but I wouldn't get my hopes up

Vikings: I totally agree with you, but the uncut cards are higher than the same quantity of cards of a regular "cut" Shaq rookie card. If you look in Beckett, it shows that many of his rookie cards are $5-$10 or more. (About twos years ago I sold 3 Shaq rookies at the height of his popularity for $50. Nothing special about those cards... but he has lost some popularity to many others... including former teammate Mr. Ra... oops... Mr. Bryant and now Mr. Wade...) If he has a sheet that is 5x6 (I think this is standard sheet size???), it is very likely hundreds of dollars. It depends on the maker, and the demand for that type of card... We will find out more I am sure. E-bay could be a good source, but after my first initial search I found nothing.

rednaz23: I think the key is who made it, the fact that the card shop people don't know is a bad sign, could be a cereal company or something

Vikings: That is true, that is what I am waiting for... :-) It might very well be General Mills or something... Once Baked Alaskan lets us know we can all go our seperate ways and see if we can figure this mystery out... :-)

rednaz23: another possability is nestalga cards
