I was watching that as well (just to see how it does). I would rather pony up the extra cash (if I had it) and get even an altered example. As for whether or not they'll see any kind of a return I'm not sure, but it will be interesting to see where it finishes up.
Two pickups (Ortiz and Bonds)
I took about a year off from collecting and reorganizing my collections and have just started getting back into it. Grabbed the Ortiz the minute I saw the listing. As for the Bonds (1993 Donruss Masters of the Game), I have been looking for an original Dick Perez...
Do all cards from the 2005 Topps set have a gold parallel. I understand the 2004 set does not include the league leaders cards (#332-367) per baseballcardpedia, and was wondering if any cards from the 2005 set were not given a gold parallel as well. Baseballcardpedia doesn't mention any cards...

4. 1986 Donruss Jose Canseco
5. 1991 Upper Deck Michael Jordan SP1

Just picked this up not to long ago. I've always wanted this card ever since I was a kid clamoring over my Beckett magazines. What is really cool about this card, and I've yet to see another one like it, is that Mantle signed it vertically like Yastrzemski's autograph. Typically Mickey was...
While on the 'relatively' expensive side, here are some modern cards that I think everyone should own from an investment and collecting standpoint. Most of these were cards that as a kid 'I had to own' but couldn't ever find or afford...until eBay came along and I started having money in my...
