Frequently asked

Who's 2000-01 Upper Deck MVP for?
A solid first box. Cheap to crack, fun to rip, and you'll still land the year's rookies without dropping serious cash.
What are the key rookies in 2000-01 MVP?
Kobe Bryant (#77) and Vince Carter are the marquee rookies. Kobe's card, especially the Silver Script and higher-end parallels like Gold Script and Super Script, commands strong prices. Both are the main reasons collectors open this product.
How many packs and cards are in a box?
Each hobby box has 28 packs with 10 cards per pack, for a total of 280 cards. That's a solid amount of product to hunt through for parallels and inserts.
What parallel sets should I know about?
Silver Script is the base parallel at 1:2 packs, so you'll pull a bunch. Gold Script is numbered to 100 and hobby-only. Super Script is the rarest, numbered to just 25 and also hobby-only. These numbered versions hold real value.
What's the deal with MJ's Final Floor?
It's a three-tier insert. Level 1 is super rare at 1:2500 packs. Level 2 is autographed and numbered to 23. Level 3 is a one-of-a-kind hand-built wood card. Most collectors will never see any of these, but they're the ultimate chase.
Are there autographs in this product?
Yes, but they're not guaranteed. Game-Used Souvenirs cards come autographed and numbered to 25 at 1:130 packs. MJ's Final Floor Level 2 and Level 3 are also autographed. Expect them to be rare pulls.
What inserts should I expect to pull?
World Jam (1:5) is the most common. Electrifying (1:9), MVP Theatre (1:14), MVPerformers (1:28), and Dynamics (1:28) round out the regular inserts. Game-Used Souvenirs (1:130) is the big chase. Most boxes will have at least a couple of the common inserts.
Is this a good value box?
At current market prices, this is a vintage product with strong nostalgia appeal. The Kobe and Vince Carter cards are the real draw. If you're hunting for those rookies or the rare parallels and autographs, it's worth the premium. Otherwise, singles might be a smarter play.
What's in a 2000-01 Upper Deck MVP hobby box?
