Typical card BS, Can't win a Bowman regardless of what I bid (within reason), but win the off brand for $1 w/o any competition. I just want the auto, but I do prefer a licensed copy in a Dodger uniform. He has not played yet, so maybe I still grab a Bowman at a cheap price someday. Maybe if he never makes the MLB roster, I don't bother. I understand why it happens, it is just hard to believe there is that much of a premium placed on common prospects in bowman products. $$$ continue to soil an otherwise fine hobby.

This is not new, but every time I see something related to the old fan clubs, I at least try to win and this one went cheap ($5.50). Reggie Smith Pepsi Fan Club ID card. These have to be scarce in general, just not popular enough to catch most people's eyes. I mean, how many could have possibly survived being issued and not filled in my the member to begin with, then keep it for 40 years? Better for me!
