It got me wondering, if there are other stories of members selling cards or memorabilia to the family of the player depicted.
So let's have those stories. I'm sure there's many better than mine.

Sold a lot of error cards and oddball regional cards to players and their family members back in the early days of eBay till around 2002. Sold Brian Holman some error cards of himself and emailed with him off and on for about a year. He is a great guy and had a lot of Griffey and Johnson stories.

I done this with a fellow member. I knew he needed one card for his PSA player set that at the time was the #1 set. I was doing a fairly large deal with another member for a bunch of Ted Williams cards and other 50s-60s HOFers. I asked if he had the Joe Torre card the other member needed. He said yes so I bought it and had him mail it directly to the other member with no return address. A few days later the member that received the card emailed me saying I would not believe what he just got in the mail. After a few days I let him know how/why he got the card.
I have sent and received many free cards from members. It is one of the things that makes this forum special.
