Seems anytime I venture into a flea market, everyone thinks it's still 1992, and are still asking 1992 prices for their junk.

The reason why he asks is because that's from 2001 Donruss. They had regular non-auto versions numbered to the year of the original DK that is represented (i.e. Griffey with 1989). They also had auto versions numbered to the last 2 digits of the year (i.e. Griffey would be 89). Griffey, however, didn't get to sign his since I think he became an exclusive... so DLP included it anyway - without an auto.

Interesting. I'm assuming the /89 of his are tough to find lol

This set is an autographed parallel of the Diamond Kings Reprints. Each card is serial numbered to the year the card made its appearance in the Donruss set, minus 1900. Eleven of the nineteen autographees packed out as redemptions.
Since Ken Griffey, Jr. was under an exclusive autograph contract to Upper Deck, Donruss was unable to have him autograph any of his DKR cards. Since he was the only player unable to sign, Donruss simply made a special un-autographed parallel numbered to only 89 copies, to round out the set. As mentioned in the listing for the regular DKR's, the Griffey, Jr. is an un-corrected error, as the card reprinted was in the 1990 Donruss set, not the '89 one.
