Are TAXES effecting your collecting?
A few months ago Ebay started adding an extra 8.5% or so on all my purchases as I live in New York... I don't mind paying the taxes, but my collecting "brain" is used to the price + shipping. Not enjoying the extra cost, but the only thing certain in life are death and taxes.- BigAppleJak

A sad Albert Pujols stat...to me at least
Since his rookie year Albert batted over .300 for pretty much the first 10 years of his career. In 2012 when he moved to the Angels his season batting average started dipping below .300 and now his lifetime batting average is about to go sub 300 for the first time EVER.... To me its a little...- BigAppleJak

$1,000 + PSA 10 common card prices! Will they hold their value?
Grading is a necessary evil at this point. What originally made the hobby fun when discussing / debating a card's condition face to face with another collector at a show has devolved into a marketplace where if the card isn't slabbed chances are the on-line buyer is going to find something to...- BigAppleJak

Batting .300
I was just checking and this season there are only 17 players batting .300 or higher, and by the end of the week it may be 15. This is the lowest number in my recent memory... Just thought it was interesting, guess more power numbers are what people are craving.- BigAppleJak

How to Sell a Collection of Baseball Cards
That was a great read! Thanks.... However, excuse my ignorance but WHY do you not tape top loaders? I hate getting a card that has slid out of a top loader to be dinged or bent. When selling, I do tape my top loaders with blue packing tape and put the card in team bag, usually accompanied by a...- BigAppleJak

Topps Triple Threads - OOPS - You had 1 job!!
Sad truth about Topps is that they seem to have very little passion for the product that they make. At least those cards aren't redemptions that after two years of not fulfilling they give you a replacement value of $35 for!!- BigAppleJak
