Just wondering why this pair of Barkley gamers went for 2k.
Can any experts out there help me out

At a glance, it looks like all of the NBA material went for a premium, not just the Barkley's.

Wow youre right. i just noticed a pair of Malones went for 1600. I had the exact same pair and struggled to get 300 on ebay!

Now I know where to send my old 70's and 80's Seattle Sonics jersey collection to auction off. Have been contemplating letting it go and checked other auction houses but authentication fees are outrageous.
