The one purchase that I remember when I was a kid was when I was around 12-13 years old (22 years ago) and I took the $50 I had and picked out the '82 Topps Cal Ripken rookie. To tell you the truth, I don't know why I chose that card, but I did. I remember the guy asking my Uncle if it was ok that I was purchasing such an expensive card
My first pre war card was my first T206, which was on January 1st of 2011...when it all began. Everyone had just left the house after celebrating the first of the year and it was around 3am...I was browsing eBay and I came across this oldie and thought the price was right ($19.00 with free shipping) and thought why not...and the rest is history
