I think the 8 clubs that weren't featured got the patch/signature booklet instead.

Man I’d love to pull one of those in a packet. They look sweet.

Shudder to think what they’ll be worth if anyone decides to sell.

Anyone know what previous ones have gone for, if they ever went up for sale?

Does the gold etching tarnish, like the previous cards.

I think the Corey Oates one sold for around $3k a few years back

Not going to fetch those heights any more.

Yeah I reckon they would have come down, I’m still keen to try and pick it up one day.

 

[Sharks16]

Pretty sure a bloke that was on here paid 2k off the previous owner? He hasn’t been on here since ?

I think they’d be more valuable if they were 1/1 of truely special players aka immortals, not just a decent player any given year.

i think they had an ok batch this year, the sutton and cordner ones will fetch $4000-$5000 minimum, trbojevic and rts will be pricey as well. but i do agree they dropped the ball in previous years with players like mclean or king that werent even at the club the next year

Their hands were probably tied a bit with those years. Being game used from the finals, there's probably a lot of players that wouldn't want to give up their jerseys.

I know that a couple of people advised TLA to drop the finals theme for these jersey cards as it allowed the sets to be opened up to every team. Thankfully they took this advice.

I doubt it , would be lucky to get 5k for the entire jersey lol

Yeah I’d be surprised if they went for over $3k each .

Depends on the team, who sees it and who wants them. I think the Tariq Sims will go for a bit. Lots of crazy dragons fans with deep pockets.....

I think the Sims one will go for a bit!

It's a funny situation with these cards (not only here but in the US as well) ...….you may be able to pick up a game worn jersey of a player through a club auction for anywhere between $500 - $2000 (or more if someone goes crazy) but for the Futera 1/1 you can buy a small piece of the jersey embedded in a card for around $2000!

Like the recent Michael Jordan Wizards UD Logoman Auto card auction ( sold for $200,000 )….yet earlier this year a full signed game worn Jordan Wizards jersey (with a LOA from a NBA player and great provenance) only went for $20,000!

Us collectors are a weird bunch!
