I think you'd be surprised at what you can purchase with $3000, if you're looking for a conversation piece. On Net54 you will routinely see big name cards pop up within your price range; you just have to be lucky enough to see it first. 33 Goudey Lou Gehrig PSA 1 have been hovering in the $1000 range. I picked up an ungraded one on the BST from a seller with good creds. You could get a very decent Cobb for that money. Be patient, know the card you want to buy, and then keep an eye open for it.
There was a thread a month ago of auto RC cards, and I thought those were definite conversation starters.
