    Does this scare anyone? Discussions on incredibly good psa fakes

    Does this scare anyone? I've been following this on net54 and it sounds like there are incredibly good psa fakes coming out of Mexico where they are so good it's tough for even psa to tell the difference. The main tell is with the registry where there are two of the same card. Now you know...

    Let have a debate on the future value of Vintage (1948-1972) baseball cards

    It seems like a lot of threads on other boards have been bashing on a lot of the new cards and saying stuff like "vintage never goes down" or the safest place to "invest" in baseball cards is to buy vintage. Stuff along those lines. I'm sure we've all heard it and I imagine some of us even...

    Finally requested a replacement for my 2012 five star autos

    I finally requested replacements for my 2012 topps five star Felix Hernandez auto, and my 2012 topps five star jimmy graham auto book. I really wanted to wait it out for these cards but after 4 years I figured they weren't getting made. Topps was unsure of the value so they said they would...

    The 2006 topps Alex Gordon fiasco

    I was on a break from collecting from probably around 2002-2008 so I'm not too familiar with the topps Alex Gordon fiasco. I know that they cut out his face on the topps and heritage cards, I'm guessing because of some contract issues. This board is such a wealth of knowledge I was wondering...

    When did BGS 10's start showing up? Also when did black label 10's start appearing?

    I was just wondering when is the earliest date anyone remembers seeing BGS 10's? Also when is the earliest anyone remembers seeing the black label 10's. I'm not that big into grading but I only remember 10's being around for the last couple of years and really becoming more common this last...

    Bgs raw card reviews coming back wth different grades?

    I just got a call from Beckett stating that a card that I bought online as a bgs raw card review 9.5 is coming back as a 9 "at best" They said someone put the "wrong sticker on it" which I find kind of comical and highly doubt. ( unless they meant that someone tampered with the bgs sticker and...

    Has the "RC" logo card overtaken the first prospect card for non auto's?

    I just wanted to get peoples thoughts on the "RC" logo cards. Have they overtaken in popularity and in price a players first prospect card. I guess I'm old school and still believe that a players first year cards are "RC" cards, even though everyone calls them prospect cards and that the "RC"...

    Thoughts on 2014 five star?

    Personally, five star is one of my favorite football products of the year, however this year I'm not sure that I like it that much. I'm a little disappointed that the base auto's aren't numbered. This makes it tough to tell who is short printed and who is not. I also don't love the design, it...

    Sadly I am done purchasing any new topps products until there is new ownership

    Unfortunately Topps lack of care for it's customers has finally forced me to stop buying all of their new products. I just can't give any more of my money to a company that has such poor customer service. Twice I have placed orders on topps.com and they screwed both of them up. The final...

    COMC, I don't understand some sellers

    I don't understand why some COMC sellers jack up the price of an item just because you made an offer on it. There was an insert numbered to 999 so not incredibly rare that a seller had listed for $2.24, I was interested so I offered $1.75, I figured if they accepted great and if not I would...

    It all started with the Box of Goodies! 1996 Leaf Signature

    It all started with the box of goodies. About a year ago when the second version of the box of goodies went around i grabed 9 or so common 1996 leaf signature extended autographs, I was hoping that these would plant the seed that might grow into a complete 1996 leaf signature series set...

    OT- Autograph experts needed, Question on a Jordan Autograph

    First off I know this is basketball so if it needs to be moved to the basketball board I understand I just wanted to get some opinions and the basketball board hasn't had a post for a couple of days so I thought I might get more views here. I sent this card off to the Bulls through the mail...

    Thoughts on the market value of the 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle

    I just wanted to get peoples thoughts on the long term value of a 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle. I didn't realize that average to poor PSA 1's were now getting over $5,000 with nice 1's going for around $7,000.For higher grades the value just goes up from there. I understand that this IS the iconic...
