    GIANCARLO STANTON TRADED TO YANKEES FOR CASTRO/GUZMAN/DEVERS

    Shouldn’t you be trolling Facebook making fun of people who have killed themselves like the pathetic piece of **** you are?

    WTB Looking for a 2017 Heritage Stanton '68 3-D

    Dunno what they're called, but they're based on the 1968 3-D test set. Holla if you got one and how much you want for it

    February pickup thread

    I've been collecting the rookies from the 1986 Fleer set recently. It's always been one of my favorite sets, I just never bothered other than owning an MJ back in college. Due to SGC stuff being tougher to find than PSA, I'm only at 21 cards (out of 63 or 74, depending on what definition of...

    The Greatest Buyback Of All Time?

    Oh my god. I've never seen a 1987 checklist apparently, because I'm giddier than a 10 year old seeing their first boob. Those are awesome!!!! Pretty sure Jeep bought Topps' unsold stock to use as paneling on the '88 Grand Wagoneer.

    Flip phones, flip cards. No difference right?

    Where are all of the prospectors? Where is all the buying trading selling action people!

    In my personal experience as both a prospector and collector, I can simplify it down to this: Prospectors spend the majority of their time worrying, whereas collectors spend the majority of their time enjoying. And I've prospected guys like Bid McPhee and Warren Spahn. One is a 19th century...

    Prospectors are the hipsters of the sports card hobby

    Where are all of the prospectors? Where is all the buying trading selling action people!

    I don't have to use vintage if you don't want me to, I've just been looking at the two specific cards that fit under that criteria. I'll use easily tracked 90's inserts, or a RC of an established star (08 Posey gold ref BGS 9, something of that sort) All in good fun, whoever "wins" Welcome...

    Where are all of the prospectors? Where is all the buying trading selling action people!

    Matt, this isn't a scientific experiment. Lol. The point I was trying to make was that most collectors buy cards because they collect and enjoy them, not because they're trying to profit. That's why I suggested either one card or 5, as long as you check back on value a year from now. Sure, you...

    My other want is a '54 Topps Hank Aaron SGC 5/6. I'd actually prefer it to the MJ, but there isn't an example available that's centered well enough for my liking. PSA 5's sell for around $2k. Want me to use that example instead?

    2016 Topps Chrome Sell Sheets (Includes 2015 Topps Chrome Carlos Correa Autos)

    The Future Stars inserts are AWESOME Too bad Miami has no one that fits in this set. Don't get too excited about the Supers yet, Topps went full-bleed for football then went full-tard for the Supers. You can't hardly see the circular pattern. Someone on BO almost threw an Jerry Rice away...

    Here's my entrant: that's what I'll hopefully be buying by the end of this evening. Pick 5 cards if you like. Isn't diversity the key to prospecting? Whatever you choose, your budget is $2k. Choose wisely bud.

    Where are all of the prospectors? Where is all the buying trading selling action people!

    No...that would be 75% of hobby message boards, which constitutes about 3% of the collecting population 75% of the hobby doesn't give a rat's ass about prospecting, and rightfully so - they see it as ludicrous that an unproven kid in AA would sell for more than an Ernie Banks rookie. And I...

    Introducing the 2001 Bowman Chrome Ichiro Superfractor Autograph

    I'd sell my first born into slavery for a 1997 BC Travis Lee Super As for the Ichiro, Topps needs to realize 3.5x2.5 does not translate to 8x10. The card looks stretched out and like the cover of a Trapper Keeper binder from my childhood. That isn't a compliment.

    Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread

    I know, and I'm glad it went to an awesome guy. I still regret selling off that run I had. The Cespedes showed up on eBay today and reminded me how awesome they are

    Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread

    Stratas are my favorite modern cards. I love that Goldy. I miss this. I like it more than my Stanton

    Sometimes a card just sells high and you don't know why.

    Cramer's Choice and Silhouettes are extremely popular. They aren't really comparable to the other 37,500 sets Panini puts out

    Sometimes a card just sells high and you don't know why.

    A /25 sold for $6.15. Can't find anything else. What am I missing? It's a popular set from a popular product.

    The all-time best pull of your lifetime thread

    Back in 2001 I busted a box of Donruss Classics. It was pretty good - I got a Kaline auto, a Johnny Bench...bench (seriously it was a stadium seat from Crosley or something), and a Ripken jersey. But the best was a Timeless Tribute parallel of Eric Munson, which was numbered to 125. I ended...

    February pickup thread

    I agree d2r, 2013 is my favorite since '05. One pickup so far Quite a downgrade from my last one. I heard it was crossed to a PSA 9 and sold privately for $8k, which was a tad few thousand more than what I sold it for. Oh well
