Prices are crazy. I'm scared for the future of my collection.

So looks like not only can we have a thread, but we can have Group threads as well!!

http://www.freedomcardboard.com/forum/group.php?groupid=7

I'll be adding some pics (if we can) and maybe starting a few threads on there. It would be nice to have separate Auto/Sig, GU, Memorabilia, RC, Graded threads, Rarities, etc.

It's a public group, so join away!

Keep joining guys!

Those are pretty hard to find.....I have a few of those, but can't find the silver regular issue one with the auto. Anyone up for selling me one or trading?

Surprised it ended that high being located overseas.....

Item location: 彰化縣, Taiwan

​

(cards usually sell for less when the item isn't located in USA)

I have a couple, but thanks for the offer. That is a card that hardly ever comes to auction.

Picked up a minor league auto......unfortunately not auto'd in 1990. Still a cool auto though!

It goes with my other 1990 & earlier autos:

I love early sigs of Thomas. I wish I had more.

Nope, not me. That person sure is buying up lots of random stuff in the past month or so...

That's a great one! Looks like an auto from early 1991 or so to me.

I have a question about this 1991 Ballstreet Thomas card. Could this auto be real? I know the "5" in 35 is not right. The reason I ask is I have one like this too and the signature is signed the exact same way even with the "5" like this one, same pen, everything. My girlfriend bought mine from a lcs for me about 10 years ago and the shop owner told her he got it out of the magazine like that. I chalked it up to her getting ripped off but I kept it cause she was so proud she got me a Frank auto. But this one on eBay got me to thinking, could Frank have signed the 35 like this for this issue? I have always thought it to be fake but could it be real? Thoughts?

I'd be interested in what you're looking for as well.

That auto doesn't look right to me. I've seen some real old autos of his look a little similar, but those were autographed in 1987/1988. An auto from mid-1991 should look like the one I have on the Cape Cod card I have pictured above. This looks like some kind of mix between the two.

Did anyone here pick up the 98 Leaf Fractal Z2 /20 that ended on ebay recently? curious to know how the final price compared with previous sales.

I picked up the Piazza but fear that it might have set a new high...
