Finally found something at a garage sale
 

Never seem to find anything at estate or garage sales. Got lucky today, though. Pretty nice pickup at twenty bucks.

Nice pick up!

That's crazy. Who in the hell has a graded card at a garage sale? Was that the only one?

I know, right? My wife and I went to a neighborhood garage sale (probably 75 houses in all), and one guy had a small group of graded cards on a table. There were some recent baseball (Griffey, etc.), a '68 Jesus Alou (?) and various football ('73 Staubach, etc.) -- all graded -- but nothing I was interested in. I asked if there were any more, and the guy said he had a few in a bag. Among them were some Henderson rookies and the Maris. I asked how much for Roger, expecting an unreasonable number. He said twenty bucks, reminding me that it costs ten just to have a card graded...

Here I was, hoping to find a shoebox full of some beaters, and a guy has a fairly nice graded card on my want list. Weird.

Just goes to show, you never know if you don't go. Great catch.
