    Custom Heritage Sets

    Those are awesome and it's impressive that you make entire sets. I agree with you not liking the filter that Topps uses to make the photos look "vintage." They just end up looking hazy and off. Do you print out the cards or just have the sets stored digitally? It would be cool to have the...

    Belichek Rookie?

    His 1991 Pro Set and Proline cards are considered his actual rookie cards, at least by sellers on eBay.

    The worst box you'll ever see opened

    That happened to me. When I started collecting in 1984, I'd buy older '80s packs every week at the card shop. Every '81 Donruss pack I bought there was filled mostly with Braves. So many freaking Gene Garber and Rick Camp cards, sometimes three a pack!

    BRYCE HARPER SIGNS A 13 YEAR/$330M DEAL WITH THE PHILLIES

    2018 stats Bryce Harper .249 avg, 34 homers, 100 rbi Rhys Hoskins .246 avg, 34 homers, 96 rbi Would be funny if Hoskins has a better season than Harper in 2019 at a tiny fraction of the cost.

    Hope you all like chips

    Cool, I used to love getting cards in packages of granola bars and cereal and sunflower seeds and other foods as a kid. Completing the 100-card set will be quite expensive unless you know someone to trade with. One big positive and one big negative though: Good - They’re Topps cards so they’ll...

    Baseball card uno

    ^ The Gooden is from '86, the Hatcher is from '88.

    I'd rather buy a house.

    The guy who bought the card obviously doesn't have to choose whether to buy a card or a house. To him, it's probably like us buying a $100 card.

    Nolan Arenado contract extension

    I chose Arenado over Betts because Arenado is the best fielding third baseman I've ever seen.

    Nolan Arenado contract extension

    Arenado is a better all-around player than Harper and Machado. 2nd best player behind Trout.

    Topps presents to you, MLB OFFICIAL EVENT USED......

    The picture should be wider and show the tablecloth he’s sitting at, so it matches and has more appeal, but that would make too much sense. It’s like when Topps uses a picture of a player on another team than the swatch is from. I thought the swatch was a part of his blue hat until I read...

    Alright Vintage Autograph Experts — check out this ball

    Cool '63 Mets ball. It's missing a key autograph, Gil Hodges. As for price, a '63 Mets ball including Stengel and Hodges, authenticated by Beckett, recently sold for $450 on eBay...

    Manny Machado Signs With.......

    These mega long-term deals for teams like San Diego and Miami are ridiculous because they're realy not long-term deals. San diego will trade Machado within 3-4 years jusr like Miami traded Stanton after they lose year after year. Machado knows he's not staying with the Padres for 10 years, so...

    Ken Griffey Jr. Collection - Video, Pics, Gifs, Slabs, and the Sweetest Swing Ever

    That's incredibly cool how you got those shiny cards to move and sparkle in the images, especially the Metal Universe card. Wow!

    A collectors meeting 20+ years in the making

    Cool finding that Garvey back. It's like it was waiting for you to find it all these years. Reading collectors' experiences and stories like this is awesome

    Last living Brooklyn Dodger Player?

    Several of those players, most notably Newcombe, Erskine, Gentile, Pignatano and Craig, have been great TTM signers over the years. Not sure if they still are at their advanced ages, but they were up until about eight years ago when I last sent cards to them. I'm sure they still love reading...

    Ugly side of ballpark naming rights...

    I wonder if the naming of a ballpark with a corporate name has ever influenced a person to actually buy that product.

    Realmuto on the verge of going to Philly

    Easily the best hitter? I'd definitely put Segura over Realmuto as a hitter, and you can't count out McCutchen becoming a star again. Hoskins has more power than all of them.

    RIP FRANK ROBINSON

    Here's an ESPN obituary showing how incredible he was: ESPN -- Frank Robinson, the first African-American manager in Major League Baseball and the only player to win MVP in both leagues, has died at age 83, MLB said Thursday. An outfielder and first baseman, Robinson was inducted into the...
