Congrats!

Very cool to hear, thanks! I'm glad I've contributed in a small part to the reason you come back

Im hoping that many collectors/investors realize they made a few thousands of the minor league cards which for the most part, were given out at the stadiums, compared to the millions that were produced on many common modern issues. Rarity doesnt always equal money as sometimes its just the demand and the popularity of an issue that creates the market.

Good luck to you in moving them! I'm a big fan of picking up what you love - that way, if the prices go down, you still have something you love! I agree though - the stadium giveaways, etc. can certainly be way rarer, and, yes, that doesn't necessarily = more money. I was just talking to someone about that recently. Sometimes the demand for a card with 10,000 copies is way, way, way higher than a card with 100. Sometimes, however, that is just because people simply don't know about the card with 100 copies.
