a player proven to take steroids and a cheater to the game itself, and your shocked an aroid auto would only sell for 65?

there aren't many current players out there that have no autos under $100. only one i can think of is ichiro since he doesn't have many auto cards.

I dont keep track of his cards since i dont collect him but i knew his cards had dropped since all that but didnt realize they got that low. And with the World Series i figured prices would be up.

Those Rangers Arod cards are the cheapest as well compared to Yankees or Mariners.

If anyone is looking for an Arod auto for their pc and doesnt want to drop a ton of cash/paypal...Rangers cards are the way to go.

Agreed! Got this for like 90 bucks

Many of ARod's 2002 autos sell around $60 right now. One exception, which I find to be odd, is the Sweet Spot auto which seems to be around $100. I'd much rather have an on card auto with a picture than a Sweet Spot. By the way, why is this card often listed as 2001 Topps Traded when the back says 2002 Topps Baseball?

Because Topps used to have Series 1 product out by Thanksgiving! So it's Topps 2002, but was printed and released in late 2001. I think people make the mistake of looking at the printing copyright on the back, and make assumptions withough knowing the sets well.

His Mariners autos were hitting $65-$70 a few weeks ago

Probably will rise since he has the ring, but, off season might be around $60 again

We don't need to hear you every time someone talks about the Yankees. Cut the trolling out.

No offense but I'm not of the school admitting you're a cheater makes you any more noble. A cheater is a cheater is a cheater. That said, Miggy is a troll and needs to move on...

This is correct. 2002 Topps Autos was actually the very first set I chose photos for in my short tenure as baseball editor there. It was always the first set printed (because back then all the autos were on-card). That must have been in summer of '01, and when I took the job I was imediately told "pick the photos for those autos, they're weeks overdue!"

 

[MojoDan]

...also...

these are on-card autos we are talking about. Gotta like that...

Miguel Cabrera's most expensive card in completed auctions:

$815 dlvd


Alex Rodriguez's most expensive card in completed auctions:

Good thing Miguel Cabrera's cards sell so well since he isn't a known steroid user.
