2013-14 Panini Immaculate Basketball is filled with lots of low-numbered content. On par with National Treasures and Exquisite, and not far behind Flawless, it sits atop the sport's high-end market.
The big focus of the release is on memorabilia. We're not talking basic jersey swatches. Rather, Immaculate delves deeper. From plenty of patches to jerseys from Christmas Day games, much of the content goes beyond the mundane.
However, what's bound to get the most attention in Immaculate are the Sneak Peek cards. These use massive pieces of game-used sneakers from top players. With so many players having deals with Nike, Adidas and Reebok over the years, shoes have become an iconic part of many superstars -- and not just those with the last name Jordan. Besides looking great and offering something different, there's a lot of crossover appeal with sneaker collectors. This should lead to some massive sales and lots of interest as these cards surface.
With a release day price tag of about $500 per box, Immaculate isn't in everyone's price range. However, it does lend itself well to group breaks and single-card sales.
Below you can check out a real-time hot list of the most-watched 2013-14 Panini Immaculate Basketball cards currently up for bid on eBay.

I saw a Lebron James Sneak Peak on e-Bay for $60,001 or best offer. I offered $5. That guy is out of his mind.
