Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>I won't say never, since I learned long ago that there are people that will pay what you think is a stupid price for something you have, but here are the cards least likely to leave my collection<br /><br /><img src="http://www.attic2cash.net/cards/thorpe.jpg"> <img src="http://www.attic2cash.net/cards/colgan.jpg"> <img src="http://www.attic2cash.net/cards/e92oakes.jpg"><br /><br />Anything else is my collection I am willing to part with in trade, some with very strict guidelines for what is involved in the trade, like my e107 being traded for another e107<br /><br />Jay<br><br>I like to sit outside, drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home, I would be arrested. So, I go to baseball games and fit right in.

Posted By: <b>Rhett Yeakley</b><p>I generally share Jay's sentiments that nearly everything can be had for a rediculous price. These are my least likely to go anywhere items...<br /><img src="http://www.geocities.com/rhettmatthew_37/youngcameopepsin.JPG"><br /><img src="http://www.geocities.com/rhettmatthew_37/stenzeldonlin.JPG"><br /><img src="http://www.geocities.com/rhettmatthew_37/atlantapccastleton.JPG"><br /><br />The following are my sentimental, not for any price keepers...<br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1144012509.JPG"><br /><br />My Dad purchased the Martin and Maris for me when only 11, which really got me started in older cards. He also got me a T206 Titus, but still don't remember what ever happened to that card, but I get sentimental every time I see one. The Kirkwood was the first baseball card I ever owned- I found it in a trunk of my brothers stuff.

Posted By: <b>John S</b><p>The Cobb was a gift from my wife when we were both in grad school...still don't know where she got the money (as beat as it is) to pay for it as we both subsisted on canned tuna and potatoes for two years. The Young was purchased using silver dollars (I saved about twenty to give to my children someday) that were given to me every month by my grandfather. When he passed away I had a couple hundred of them that I had managed not to spend. <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1144019093.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1144019043.JPG">

Posted By: <b>warshawlaw</b><p>If someone offered me life-changing money for a card or for my collection I would do it. Probably the last card I'd part with is my cousin Ray's E211 card. It is the only one I've ever seen, but if someone just had to have it and had enough zeros after the digit in their offer, I would sell it too. I know, I know, now that we've established what I am we are merely negotiating price. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>
