Default Anyone remember prices when you started pre-war?

Ted,

That's funny you should mention that 59F Williams set in Mt at $100. I picked up a CHERRY set in the 80s and I paid double book for it then ($200) and everyone thought I was nuts. If the set wasn't so darn near perfect (gloss, centering, corners - everything) I probably wouldn't have bothered with it. I can remember cherry picking dealers for their best condition cards and happily paying book for the cards. That was before grading which has escalated the price of NrMt-Mt cards to a stratosphere which I don't care to enter.
