The Official Sports Card Discussion Thread

Rare cards generally sell for more. I'd much rather have a Jambalaya than a Topps Chrome RC.

It should depend on the player...an iconic low pop HOF rookie card should be more valued than a glossy low pop insert...

That I 100% agree with.

Ever since this thread I’ve gotten back into cards. At first I started buying 9.5 to 10 baseball rookies like AJ Puk etc... But the. I realized I much prefer buying my favorite players and displaying them.

I got an el duque/mark messier/plaxico burress/Aaron judge Daryl strawberry. Most of them for $25 or less with Aaron judge being the exception I think I bought that for $85

Don't leave them in the light too long, especially if it's an autographed card. The colors will get washed out and autos fade.

Do they have anything that blocks UV so I can display them? When PSA grades something the shyt they put it in stops the autograph from fading?

Not that I know of. A PSA/BGS holder won't stop an auto from fading if you leave it in the light.

I had soooo many of his cards back in the 90s thinking they were worth something. Then i find out that 90% of his cards only worth a dime

That Griffey looks pretty clean. Might be a little off centering wise top to bottom.

Its definitely off compared to the PSA 10s i have seen...I already know im looking at a 9.

The only 10s i have here are the UD Chipper Jones,Mussina,maybe the Alomar...
