    The Super Sweet Early 00's Thread

    Guessing many of us player collectors tied up that Home Openers autograph loose end with the set that just got sold off.....

    The 1998 Topps Tek Thread

    Lol... I didn't even WATCH your Edgar and I got same offers..... too funny. I did add two clemens diffractors in the private deal at 25 each, which to me is fair at this point given the insane inflationary trends on all cards.

    The 1998 Topps Tek Thread

    I just looked long enough to see who seller is on those..... makes sense now lol......... But seriously, my last two tek base grabs were under 4, and I just made private deal for about 18 at 3 each. Granted, maybe Edgar is higher value than Rocket..... but that much?

    The 1998 Topps Tek Thread

    I see Edgar base for $19.95 each. On fleabay??m?.... I am assembling Clemens. I pay up to 4$ each for base or I let them sit. I ve bought clemens DIFFRACTORS for 20.... pre prods for 5 to 10. Would NEVER PAY more 20 for base. Straight lunacy in my book.....

    Recent slab pickups / grading

    Great cards. That makes 3 of the Hogg autos i ve ever seen. Strangely, I think I just landed my Openers Home Run after posting it in the top 10 wanted thread.

    Post the top 10 cards on your Want List

    Definitely agree with several points by @mrmopar . The hype/rich guy effect has really become visible the last 2 years. Not losing sleep, but some cards are just stupid money that cannot be justified. I have definitely made adjustments to what I care about finding and I have had flippers try to...

    September 2025 New Arrivals

    Got this epic jersey # 22 matched /25 Hogg auto out of the hands of the guy holding the remnants of Dov's collection. Freed it from the irrelevant (and ugly, Martha Stewart would not approve of red and white framing this color card scheme, just sayin!, it looked so awful) PSA holder he put it in...

    The Radicards® Thread

    I don't really use that daily check in thread, but I think understand both sides of this discussion. The mechanics of how the thread is used with a new topic each day doesn't make sense from a forums use and design standpoint. Having a single one with each day being an update would keep it...

    Sports memorabilia dealer admits scamming collectors in bizarre, $350M fraud and forgery scheme

    Guess so. Final parting shot and cleaning of the earthly slate, maybe.

    Sports memorabilia dealer admits scamming collectors in bizarre, $350M fraud and forgery scheme

    I m not understanding the online social media mea culpa post at all here...... something weird about all of it. But not shocked at all that most signed stuff bought and sold is totally fake .

    Sox Home jersey button /5. Better than the Yanks away one I had :)

    Is this legit ??jersey fusion

    Had heard that they spent real coin (7 figures) to buy authenticated and photomatched items. Can't swear to it as it's not me, and everything should be viewed with skepticism because of how often TPAs are totally wrong. Their 2nd and 3rd year slabs seem better thought out. Some are super ugly...

    R & N china Porcelain Guru needed

    Thanks! I have two more that don't have the "borders". One says The Danbury Mint in cursive on lower left reverse, with that "A2085" gold ink hand numbered on the right. I see nothing about Danbury Mint and R&N China cards anywhere I look. the 2nd has the same area for a number, but it is...

    Card certified autograph question: Which retired and current players can hold a $100 (or more) value nowadays?

    Yeah, I can vouch that there are AT LEAST 35k Clemens autos per Beckett PRs, as of 2023. It seems like 1500 to 2500 per year added between Leaf, Panini and Topps is a reasonable estimate to add based on recent years. So, yeah, if most players are similar, not many are going to retain much value...

    Card certified autograph question: Which retired and current players can hold a $100 (or more) value nowadays?

    I think panini vs licensed drastically affects this too. I wont even buy a Clemens Panini auto. That said. Pretty sure if talking licensed, Mariano is 100 plus every day.

    R & N china Porcelain Guru needed

    Ok, these cards a VERY similar, but font size and styles are different, front and back. 1 obviously says copyright 1992, 1 doesn't. What are they? And why can't I find on TCDB.?
