What cards do you wish you had back?

[prospectorgems]

They can be high or low end cards that you may have sold/traded too early or whatever reason you had to sell/trade them at the time.

I can only think of a couple off the top of my head that I really wish I had back.

Yovani Gallardo Triple Threads Autograph. I had two of these cards, one out of /99 and one out of /50 and both had amazing patches in them. At the time I really needed the money and figured I would just buy them back at a later date. Now come to find out, I can't find anything remotely close to those patches. All I see listed are plain jerseys for Gallardo's cards. If I had known how rare those cards were at the time, I would have just sucked it up and kept them.

Also back in 2006, I pulled a Blue Refractor Autograph of Longoria and Kershaw. I sold them both for around what they go for now at the time, but those are two key cards I wish I had back, especially the Longoria.

There are a lot of cards I know I should have held onto a little longer while prospecting, but I still ended up making profit on them so I can't consider them a total loss.

Red Gilmore auto! I sold it to another member who wanted it reeeeeeeeeeeeal bad, I didn't want to give it up, 2 weeks later he's traded to the Sox, been kicking myself since :|

 

[thenumberonemetfan]

I love what I got for it but its a very nice and rare card.

/99

 

[TonyButlerStopSuckin]

Without a doubt the nicest card I've ever owned, or probably will ever own. Sold it around the all star break last year for more than I would have thought. I never was brave enough enough to look to see what they were getting at their peak but it payed for over 80 percent of my half case so I won't complain too bad.

Only one baseball card I wish I still had:

 

[Jays_Cards]

I dont keep old scans, but I wish I had these back:

2007 Bowman Chrome Tim Lincecum Red Refractor Auto
2006 Bowman Chrome Evan Longoria Orange Refractor Auto
2006 Bowman Chrome Evan Longoria Gold Refractor Auto BGS 9.5 (x2)

 

[sraxe]

I still would like to have back my McGwire USA rookie card, roids or not.

 

[hive17]

I only wish I had this back so I could sell it right. I think I got rid of it in a large lot of crap autos/GU/numbered cards.

And i think the hype that he MIGHT generate would net me a nice flip.

 

[ffgameman]

I "miss" owning a few cards, but there are none that I wish I had back (other than my small basketball collection including quite a few decent inserts and rookies I sold for $35 on an urge).

I particularly miss my Barry Bonds autograph (06 Topps Update on-card /5) and my Youkilis/McPherson 05 Reflections dual autograph. I got a great deal on the Bonds but I can't remember what I traded the dual autograph for.
