Griffey Collector's Thread

[TheJuniorJunkie]

That actually doesn't look that bad. I had one of the Sr/Jr dual autos from 09 ultimate that was miscut so badly it was almost diamond shaped. Stinks, but i think it was fairly common with that set.

Mine is the same way.

after pulling my Griffey in 1992, I also saw a Thomas at a card shop,And wanted it... ended up borrowing 100$ from my mom went back and bought it for 103 and the change in my pocket.. Still have em both

I found that Thomas at my local card shop in the dollar box a few weeks ago. Couldn't believe it. Ended up selling it on eBay for in the $45 range to buy Griffeys.

People are crazy, and then there's Griffey collectors.

I'm stealing this.

I have a safe deposit box. easily worth 40 bucks a year. Not only do i keep important documents and some extra cash (dont let them see you put it in, you are for some reason not allowed) but I have all my cards worth 500+ and those that i wouldnt be able to replace very easily. I dont go very often to look at them (thats what photobucket is for) but it is nice when i need one of the documents in the box and get to hold them!

I do the same thing. I have all the good stuff (I go so far as to include everythign worth $10 or more - it's a HUGE safe deposit box) locked up at the bank, but I take high-quality scans of every card front and back before locking them up. Someone could rob me blind at home and I would only be out a whole bunch of cheaper commons. Of course at this point I have over 4,100 unique Griffey cards, so that box is getting pretty full. Might have to get a second one.

Any other anal Jr. collectors besides me into Jr. 'cameo' cards?

Big time! I'm actually just about finished assembling a blog post that will pull double-duty as an online database of Griffey cameos. I'll post a link here when it's complete.

Sorry I've been posting so many times in a row. I've been reading this entire thread through and replying when I feel the urge! Some of these quotes are from years ago.
