Kobe Bryant Lakers Ring He Gifted Mom Sells for $206,000!!!
bit.ly
The 14k gold and diamond ring Kobe Bryant gifted his mom 20 years ago has just sold ... and it brought in more than $206k!!!!I would think that ring would be worth over a million. But, having said that how on earth could a mother sell it? If nothing else the ring should go to his children. Sad.
She sold her ring long before her son was killed. This was a reselling. Sad to think of such a horrible family relationship, that she would want to sell a gift in the first place, and that he would sue to prevent the sale in the second place.
Greed is so sad
As a Mother, nothing could make me sell my deceased son's belongings...especially something so valuable and something he gifted to me!! No! Absolutely no way! I don't need money that bad...and if she was driven by greed..shame on her!
I would never had sold it it weighs to much sentimental value and any price tag wouldn't be comparable. 😔
I cannot believe they sold them. And for that little. Wow

This was a duplicate ring that the parents sold in 2013. It resold recently.

The ring looks a bit like the one you looked at at a ballgame. I can’t see the stone well, but if it’s Austrian alexandrite it’s worth some moo-lah! 😎
howard
It is so funny how you pick more than one
If the ring with the red gemstone is ruby, then it is most valuable. 2nd choice is the crysoprase and pearl necklace.
Happy Holiday weekend to you also. I cheat and go straight to the video and see if I'm right. Be safe, stay healthy love.❤💙💛🧡💜
The back of that bracelet is why I didn’t pick it, even though it has the safety chain.
The third ring is what I will guess but I really like the pearls.
Lori Verderame (Dr Lori) there is a phenomenal app called PhotoRoom that will make most photographs of items look amazing. Easy all-white backgrounds & more. This is not an ad. Lol
Wao beautiful lok
The Mickey Mouse pocket watch is my pic!.....shared
I have some antiques things i wana sell them..
Mickey Mouse watch
watch?
The 7th picture ring. Looks very old.
I would say the Mickey Mouse watch
Pocket watches like that are rare...I'd say the watch
Jade and water pearls
Ring 4th image.
Mickey Mouse watch
That first bracelet is very similar to one of my mom's. I'll have to take a closer look at hers!
Mickey! For the win! 🤣🤣
Pocket watch! Probably swiss movement.
I’m guessing the Mickey Mouse piece but condition looks a little rough on metal & M.Mouse items have been dropping in interest. Probably the gold ring even though I can’t see the markings very well, there are many markings & it is probably very old. Pearl & jade necklace if it’s real jade. Gotta bite the pearls! Just kidding, won’t bite ‘em.
Square red ruby/garnet
Mickey Mouse or the pocket watch!
