2009-10 Topps Chrome Jumbo Basketball Unopened Box
The NBA enjoyed a substantial resurgence in the 2000s, boosted by superstars like Michael Jordan (at the tail end of his career), LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O'Neal, Kevin Garnett, Tim Duncan and Vince Carter, trading cards exploded in popularity and card companies capitalized on that popularity with hundreds of new sets, subsets, parallels and inserts. A decade later, the 2009-10 Topps Basketball set is regarded as one of the most coveted of the new millennia. Retail boxes of the 2009-10 Topps set have been selling for tens of thousands recently, but the much rarer hobby boxes have sustained prices nearly ten times that of retail offering. With the possible rookies of Blake Griffin, (#1 overall pick in 2009), as well as 4X NBA Champ Steph Curry, 2018 NBA MVP James Harden, this unopened hobby box offers an incredible upside with dozens, if not hundreds, of possibly high-grade rookies, autographed patch and star cards emerging from this still-factory sealed box.

The cards are distributed 10 packs per box and 50 cards per pack with relic and patch cards. This colorful Topps Chrome hobby box features Denver Nuggets great Carmelo Anthony on top and holds Super-Fractors, Gold and Refractor parallels as well as Championship Materials Relics and Roundball Remnant Relics, prominently listed on one side of the box. This beaming yellow box remains in superb condition with the original Topps factory-seal intact and with an NBA hologram sticker affixed to the bottom. This is one of the finest 2009-10 Topps Chrome Basketball Unopened Hobby boxes that we have had the pleasure to offer. Over the past few years, high-grade Steph Curry rookies have reached well into the five figures, with multiple examples clearing $50,000. Imagine what this box could hold and make a play for this unopened hobby box chock full of potential rookies!
