Honestly I have found a slew of 90's inserts and other types of variations and whatnot by going through the 25 cent boxes at shows. When I was at Tristar...I had my list of Bagwells with me and also sifted through like 10 5,000 count boxes of cards. People probably thought I was a nutjob. But I had a damn field day. The cool thing about 90's inserts is they don't have to be mega rare to be cool or worth buying. Especially at that price point. I came home with stacks of sick looking cards. Bad part is...after going through the basketball and football...I was spent mentally so I never even got around to buying any of the baseball stuff except a few choice autos and 3 Bagwells.

I think what really helps is when you player collect a guy who played in the 90's. Because then you see cards and you notice what cards command what kind of money. And you can also track how they fluctuate. Like the Skylines Bagwell that's up right now for auction. I bet it ends for more than I paid for mine. But its cool to know that and if another one pops up...its also good to know if it goes for more or less. That way if you see one at a show for half the price or less, you'll know its a good deal and quite movable should you not want to keep it.

Good thing Gwynn didn't sign over the drawing!!!!! Kinda ugly, but for under $20 works for me.
