2026 (!) Goals
I haven't bought many cards at all in the past five years and I probably won't this year either. So my 2026 goal is just to continue being content with my collection. After 40+ years in this hobby and building a large collection of only what I like, not what I think will increase in value, it's... -
Card Cop is Still out there.....
Woah, the Card Cop is still alive. I just Googled his name to make sure it wasn't an imposter and he's still actively posting (and complaining) on his Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/james.mccay67/ -

Where does the value lie? The disappearing ink of 2007 UD Sweet Spot.
Garvey is a great and quick signer through the mail. It would be interesting to have him sign one and see how long the ink lasts on it. -
2023 Hobby Goals
1. Enjoy what I already have instead of craving what I don't. 2. Sell cards that don't fit in my collection goals. I mainly collect complete sets in binders, autographs, old Yankees and I have a few small player collections. All of the thousands of random star cards and commons I've... -
Thought's on Yankees prospect Aaron Judge?
LOL. This thread is hilarious in hindsight. -
'23 Topps design released...
I agree with all of that. Nice idea and the homage to 1963, 1983 and 2003 is great, but the bottom is too busy, the team name is cut off and the logo is too big and distracting. At least it’s not boring like most Topps designs of the past ten years. -

What is a dream card of yours that you had a chance to acquire but waited too long?
Hershiser has long been a great signer through the mail, at least up until a few years ago when I last got him. Not sure if he still signs for free, but it's worth a try. -
THE GORILLA IN THE ROOM
The MLB also stopped testing for steroids for the first time in almost 20 years because the PED agreement expired in December: https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/33238595/major-league-baseball-stops-testing-players-steroids-nearly-20-years-report-says -
Cards wall decorating found years later…
That's kind of awesome. I wanted to do that as a kid in the '80s but my Mom wouldn't let me. -
THE GORILLA IN THE ROOM
The Players Association turning down MLB's request for third party mediation isn't good. Hopefully this gets fixed fast because I'm already going through baseball withdrawal. And did you mean the elephant in the room in your title? I never heard the phrase the monkey in the room. -
Thoughts on 2021 Topps Gallery
It's an amateurish drawing, but Luzardo actually kind of looks like that. He has a weak chin and jawline. -
New eBay feature lets you add videos to your listings. Game changer?
eBay used to allow videos in listings years ago, then they took it away for some reason. -

What Would YOU Do?
I think you did the right thing and I would have done the same. -
Game used Cards - Is anyone still a fanatic over them?
I agree. I don't trust that a good percentage of "game used" swatches or bat pieces are even authentic, and I don't mean altered GU cards. There have been too many mistakes by card companies putting wrong swatches on cards, and questionable authentication services they bought pieces from. It's... -
set builders .. what's your best set
1958 Topps. It was my Dad's favorite set as a kid, so I started building it about 15 years ago so he could relive it. -
2022 Topps Baseball Preview
I agree it looks like Bowman. Kind of plain too. But better than this year's ugly design. I miss how Topps used to be bold with their designs. Everything these past few years look like they were designed by a sterile computerized random generator. -
Huggins and Scott Auction House
It was Liberate Baltimore. Here's a post he made on FCB: https://www.freedomcardboard.com/forum/threads/huggins-scott-auctions-job-opening-assistant-auction-coordinator.132580/ -

MrMopar's First* Annual Baseball's Back Contest - No true winner, but dano7 & aanewport are WINNERS of consolation prizes!
Well I'm likely done. Trout's out 6-8 weeks with a calf injury. -
Target and Wal-Mart no longer selling retail sports cards as of today, 5/14. Thoughts?
Don't get your news from Youtube. Walmart confirmed it's still selling sports cards. It's only Target. -
Albert Pujols DFA'd
Hopefully St. Louis signs him in September so he can get a proper farewell.
