I contend $250 is on the low end.

The football proofs are not all that hard to find. Not sure how that translates to baseball, if at all.

I guess it makes me want to bust out my non-proof
These are really nice in person! I don't own any Golds, but I picked up a Silver Vinny Castilla for a dime at the show today (along with a ton of 1998 Gold Label Class 1 and 3 Blacks and a 1995 Finest Biggio Refractor!)!

Basketball proofs are easy two, neither compare to baseball as far as scarcity is concerned.

I don't think I understand the high price tag either. clarkfan's triple crown of Albert Belle Crusade Executive Proofs aren't even getting a bite, and they are from one of the most popular and most recognizable insert sets of all time. They also don't look washed out like the Finest cards do. It's just odd to me just how different valuations are on similar issues. Is it that Finest was a higher end product? Is it that this Finest is clearly recognizable as being different from the other Gold Atomics from the front (as an Executive Proof)? Is it that there is proof out there that more than one set of Executive Proofs for the Crusade exist? Is my player comparison a bad one? Who knows... not me :mrgreen:

The embossed refs are a little tricky. There's one or two guys looking to corner the market to make it tough for anyone else to complete the set... from what I can tell, they especially like to get as many of certain players as possible which is why certain players sell for more than others.

I'm of the same mindset. I'd go after a McGwire if it came up, but no where near as high as I usually go for rare McGwire cards. I don't even have that version on my McGwire card list to obtain, as it's just an uncut sheet someone took a pair of scissors to. I have always held the stance that a person with a pair or scissors won't dictate what is a variation or not. I apply that rule to every issue, but run across it more commonly with the " jumbo proofs" where someone simply cut the cards out larger than standard size, or the 1991 Cracker Jack "4-1" variation that is also just cut from a previously uncut sheet. Different strokes for different folks as they say.
