Danny said...: Thanks for taking a few of those sets out of circulation. Maybe mine might increase in value - by about 3 cents for 1000 cards.; October 19, 2008 11:06 AM

Rob- AKA "Guido" said...: Oh don't worry I have more. I was going to use the rest to show how to use 800 count boxes of this crap as between the studs wall insulation. Stay tuned for episode 2; October 20, 2008 10:45 PM

Rob's TTM Graphs said...: The only other useful thing they are good for is getting them signed by the wash ups who played in that era.; March 16, 2009 8:59 AM

Spud said...: I tried something like this one time, but all I got was a pit in my stomach watching a card of Gary Gaetti in a Cardinals uni looking back at me. With sad eyes. Wondering, why, why are you doing this to me? Even though I left the Twins, me and these other baseball cards were there for you to be a bunker when you played with your GI Joes and to prop up your CD collection when you got older. Now I have an urn of baseball cards next to my teddy bear.; April 27, 2009 10:53 PM
Anonymous said...: Please Craigslist IDIOTS DO THE SAME TO YOUR BEANIE BABIES, Furbies, Over-produced sports cards and all the other fads that came and went . Walmart ripped everyone off, and they mass-produced all of this stuff! Just burn this kind of stuff or better yet, just donate it and right it off as a tax right off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!; July 31, 2009 2:31 AM

Voice of the Collector: The Anti-Beckett

The conflict of interests surrounding the once respected Hobby giant have grown to such proportion that they can no longer be ignored. From arbitrary card pricing to subjective card grading, sub-par editorial, manufacturer collusion, glorified product reviews and near plagiarism, this blatant disregard for the collector's best intrests in the name of the almighty dollar MUST end. It is the goal of this blog to be the true VOICE of the COLLECTOR.
