    These are fake, Right?

    I'm also betting they are fakes. I just looked at the 2009 Bowman Red stamped 1/1 in my collection and its gold stamping looks comparatively different than what appears on the 1/1s that are currently listed. The ebay seller lists a Cranston address. Providence is just down the road from...

    World Series sign ideas.......

    How about a sign idea like: "2011 WS / Church vs. State" [The sign idea might be a stretch, but both cardinals and rangers represent an select personnel in their institutions of employment.] or, "The Cards have God and squirrels on their side." [Probably to wordy.] Whatever you decide...

    2011 Variations...Topps is going overboard

    Yeah, I'm glad that Topps uses the same picture for their player parallel cards because it ensures that the printing plates are true 1/1's for that particular Topps set, but some Topps sets have so many variation cards for a specific player that even the most ardent player collector can't...

    Moneyball the movie

    Timing is everything. Is opening this movie at the end of the regular season the right time? Isn't the movie competing against ticket holders and TV viewership of the actual sport. We're in the thick of the wild card chase when games in both leagues mean the most and Hollywood wants baseball...

    360pt magnetic holders

    The thickness of the 2010 Topps Baseball Update Manufactured Bat Barrel card is between 240pt and 260pt. So, yes, there will be plenty of room in the 360pt magnetic holder for that particular 2010 card. My two 2010 Manufactured Bat Barrel cards are in toploaders, but I’m definitely picking up...

    360pt magnetic holders

    Ultra Pro Magnetic One Touch 360pt Card Holders are on the market. I had no idea. Maybe they've been available for while, but they are new to me. Finally, an acrylic holder that fits a 2010 Topps Baseball Update manufactured bat barrel card with leg room to spare. I still don't think there...

    2011 Heritage Error SSP vs. 2011 Sparkle Variation SSP

    Considering I navigated the Beckett and Topps websites looking for print run numbers and couldn’t find them and vaguely remembering reading somewhere one-card-per-case or print runs of /10 or /6, could someone please definitively say what the print runs are for both the 2011 Topps Sparkle...

    September 11, 2001...We Will Remember. We Will Never Forget.

    Where I was, the streets were flooded with dazed people heading uptown, especially on Sixth Avenue. City buses drove with their doors open and people were hanging out the doors and windows to breathe air. That afternoon volunteers showed up at the NYC hospitals but the ERs were practically...

    When to consider yourself a Supercollector?

    There's something about 1/1 Chrome cards that's an almost must for the Super collectors. Autos, Patches, Wood cards are very nice, but the Super collector needs superfractors too.

    ~~~Good Saturday Morning Thread~~~

    There was a pick up truck going down Rt. 450 this morning completely covered in mud and mud was getting slinged all over the place on passing cars. Pretty crazy sight to behold.

    ~~~Good Saturday Morning Thread~~~

    Did anyone in the northeast go mud bogging this morning in their Jeep, pickup truck, or on their four wheelers, or dirt bikes? After all this rain and continued flooding somebody somewhere can make something good out of it all by bogging. Just asking.

    So, I'm a Silver Powerseller, what do I get?

    Well, what I learned about ebay's silver powersellers after reading some websites about ebay's silver powersellers is it's a status recognizing trustworthy ebayers who go above and beyond most ebay sellers. As a silver powerseller you maintain a set of guidelines pertaining to a specific...

    I hate Carlos Zambrano

    What can I say, but FCB rocks! This is exactly what this forum should be all about: freedom of expression, about the hobby and the game. For argument sake, let’s say Carlos Zambrano is a hot head and always has been. Let’s say all through his childhood, teenage years, and young adulthood...

    UD Goodwin sneak peek.

    Thanks for posting the video. After watching the video, my first impression was how British, or Victorian the UD Goodwin set feels. Consider the source, but the whole botany, curio cabinet, fauna, and flora fascination reminds me of Victorian England. It's a very handsome set.

    Opinions please

    I have no idea what either of these cards look like. Sometimes a card's appeal is solely based on a personal favorite player, or its overall design, while other times the rarity of a card can be intriguing and then there's the value that the market places on it for resale. It's hard to make...
