    This forum has been drama free for a few days, so here's some fresh material

    You purchased and agreed/paid for cards, including a sellers discount on shipping (0.50 per card), cards arrived in a timely manor and without defect. Is this information all correct? I am not arrogant enough to tell others what to do but assuming all info is correct here, I simply see no...

    What's the problem with the selling forums?

    Like everything else it comes down to member base. The 'active' member base here is predominantly store (brick & mortar or otherwise) owners, prospectors, flippers, breakers/sellers, collectors no longer actively collecting, and eBay sellers looking to make a few bucks. Rounding that out are...

    response I got from a seller for a damaged card I got

    Is it just me, or are you pinching that card awfully hard? I mean it is practically cutting in to your fingers....? And honestly, the sellers response does not sound harsh at all. Having said that, I personally would have just refunded you the money.

    Are printing plates worth grading and opinion on this trade?

    Slabbed authentic, no need for a grade on a 1/1 printing plate but I do like the protection and presentation of a slab.

    Are printing plates worth grading and opinion on this trade?

    I would pay the premium to have/buy a nicely encased printing plate. Sent from my N800 using Freedom Card Board mobile app

    Most important 1990s base set

    1. 1993 Topps Finest It was a first in many ways. Very premium cards, very low print run (for the time), refractor cards, chromium finish, high initial price point. Pretty much paved the way for the modern era of baseball cards and defined the turning point in the hobby, going after adults with...

    Do you think this was a good deal?

    Not especially, but as long as you are happy! :)

    Most important 80s base set?

    My Top 5 list (compiled by someone who collected in the 1980's) 1. 1984 Donruss - Why? Anyone who was active in the hobby will tell you that this set all but saved the hobby single handedly. The set was 'the' set to have well in to the 90's and the Mattingly card almost dethroned the 1952...

    Can't believe this just happened

    On the topic of authenticity, I am pretty well versed with this particular card. So here are my findings without further hesitation... Of all the commonly known fakes, this particular card shows none of the staple 'tell tale' signs of a fake. However, a better/larger scan of both front and back...

    The new owners of the Industry Summit are......

    Actually, that is a very good question!

    Nolan Ryan Rookie - Milton Bradley?

    It appears to have the white line border, and the back looks a bit more yellow than orange, so with that I would say it is probable to be a MB version. However not conclusive...

    When will Pujols hit his 500th homer?

    How in the world did this card get a Pristine 10? Look at the centering!

    The glare on the left side coupled with the misaligned photo give the illusion of it being off centered. Take a better look, it is pretty spot on.

    jeters last game

    Jeters last game will be a defining moment in baseball. It will mark the loss of the last of the games ambassadors, the passing of the face of the game for our generation, and with him he will take a bit of MLB's soul. The game will never be quite the same.

    Collector's Corner Showcase, Volume 7: michaelstepper

    Not to take away from your efforts here which deserve appreciation, but any chance you could re-script the "interview" to be a bit more fluid and/or dynamic instead of the same one dimensional questions? I just think a lot of context is being lost, fluid context that would make this much more...

    How do you interpret this 2014 Bowman Sell Sheet?

    Hobby box =/ Jumbo Box Knowing that, the sell sheet should be crystal clear now.

    Is Bryce Harper overrated and just a semi-star and NOT a mega-star as we thought?

    I think it is funny everyone thinks their opinion on how Harper should be judged is the only correct way. If you stand back a bit and look from outside the tree's then you can see that he is a young, talented ball player with plenty of time to make a splash, the kind he is capable of. However...

    It was bound to happen. My first non-prospect purchase, ever.

    Nice card! But just to certain of what you are saying, you have NEVER bought a single baseball card that was NOT a prospect? Oh my...

    On a 3 day card card show, which day(s) do you go?

    Ideally, and this is strictly speaking of a 'what if' scenario, I would obviously prefer to be there early on the first day to sniff out all the good deals and get there while opening stock is still in tact. After that, I would also venture in on the last day to get in on any clearance deals...
