When enough just isn't enough (eBay purchase)

[Topnotchsy]

Well I thought I had enough of these, but the low prices coupled with the great start to the season had me throwing out a bid, and winning. Now 25/25 in SB attempts and batting close to .330, I'll take it.

60?

All 4 different autographs.

How many Crawfords is that total now? If he ever jumps ship to the big markets or the Rays win the WS...Jackpot.

That price is nauseating! $21.50 apiece!!!

No wonder I'm not getting more hits on my 4ct. lot or my (2) Bowman Chrome International Ref RC's #/100 ... what is it gonna take to get this guy some love?!

Bows.



I hope someday to have as many miggys as you do crawfords.

Nice grab. I noticed the 9.5s jumped up a little (a few ended in the mid $100s after a few ending under $100) but I can't believe raws are still down that much.

Fixed it - I owned 9 of them back in 2000

Wow $21.50 per kills me, I just listed one tonight and definitely wanted more than that

one of the most underated players in baseball. Even more underated since Longoria became the face of the franchise

 

[TelePlayer22]

Whoa, I remember when these were getting $80+, $125+ for the really nice autographs.

...and even MORE underrated when you realize this is his 8th year in the league - and the guy is still only 27.

Already 1160 hits, could be on his way to 3,000 if he can stay healthy.

I agree with everything pretty much everyone said. He's been insanely overlooked, and while last year brought a bit of a scare, he's back and better than ever.

It's also always nice to follow a guy who plays hard, trains hard, and stays out of trouble. Guy never complained despite Tampa being a losing organization for years, and was always motivating himself and working hard, even when the team was losing.

Tell me about it, Casey.

I have had this listed for a while, yet no one wants to offer. I thought that the season he is having would open people's eyes and wallet.

Good or Great Stats just doesn't always equal Hobby Love.

This is what I dont get about the topps traded 99 and 2000 sets. The only big money card is miggy despite there being an array of fine talent in both of the sets. Alfonso Soriano, Josh Hamilton, Pat Burrell, Carlos Zambrano, Carl Crawford, CC Sabathia, AJ Burnett.
Also keep in mind back then most of these guys had only 1 rookie card auto, which was the topps traded auto set. No paralells or other products. I dont understand why miggy is the only one who cracks 200, in fact 99 percent of these guys dont even crack 100 raw.

I'm with you on this. It makes sense that Miggy is the most expensive as he if he maintains his hitting he may end up putting up inner circle HOF numbers, but Soriano and Crawford are both way underpriced IMO, as is Zambrano and CC, all guys who have had great careers. Hamilton still gets over $100 and with the time he missed it will be interesting to see where his career goes, and guys like Burnett and Burrell are solid but not spectacular, but I completely agree that prices on those are low as well. Only RC Auto in almost every case, and there are some great players. Adam Dunn, Michael Young, Ben Sheets are some others.
