Sorry I still don’t see cards as an investment anyone or I should be putting too much into. Collecting for the fun of it sure, its like buying a new boat, fancy car, stereo or new plasma TV. You most likely will not make money or get a return.

Also I doubt many of us will grow to attached to our IRA or stocks like we will or baseball cards. I was always under the impression that in the long run cards are really only worth what someone is willing to pay you for them. I don’t recall being able to work down the price of a share of stock. Or being offered only $40 for a share of a stock that was worth $60 because the buyer felt it was a fair price.

Not arguing that you can make money with cards sometime. But if I had my choice of $100k worth of Microsoft or $100k worth of baseball cards for my retirement. It’s a no brainier.
