I sold almost all of mine a couple of years ago, including at least 5 of the nicer HOFers in last night's auction before they were encased in those monstruous paperweights. I thought they all under-performed except for Sisler, which was about at the break even point to maybe a little low. I know I sold all mine for MORE than that except for Sisler.
Most of the commons had pinholes, and collectors can be fickle with those regardless of presentation. The commons like Stanage and even the oft-seen Holke went low, I thought, but again my market knowledge is stale. If things were looking a little more flush over here, I would jump back into m101-6 in a heartbeat, as it is one of the coolest sets out there, IMHO. I'm hanging onto my Hornsby, which I consider a rookie card, as long as I can.
