In 1998 I was working at a card shop in Marquette Heights IL. We had McGwire 85 Topps and Sosa 90 Leaf rookies marked at $25 and $10 respectively. When the HR crazy started we were getting $250-$400 for the McGwires and $80-110 for the Sosa's. Even offcentered McGwire's were commanding $225-275. It was nuts. We had a handfull of both. Thank you PEDs


The Arod's their peak were in the $125-135 range raw. 8's were bringing $120 and I bought two of them. Now they sell around $40ish

I bought a snaptite of cards off a kid when I was running a shop and inside was a 90 Leaf Thomas. Must have been 2000-2001 or so. Anyways, sent it in to BGS and got a 9.5.
Sold it to my Thomas collector for $425 ::facepalm:: :lol: :lol:

Also remember selling the 2001 Upper Deck Tiger Woods RC to a bar owner for $100 a pop. I would get them in trade and cash in.

Those were the days.

im almost positive the arods were hitting over 200 in 2007 when he was having a ridiculous year.
