Default great card found in Japan

Posted By: DJ

Upon seeing that Clemente, I too threw something across the room, cursed a bit and took a long walk. Simply put, it's 'Sports Memorabilia homicide'.

It's not you we dislike Ty or the fact you purchased this item but the item itself is that unwanted member of the family that you bring with you to each of the Holiday gatherings and just causes discomfort. I am highly offended that something like this exists.

Leon has you on the right track. I think T206's are a fantastic way to begin a collection and before you run, you must crawl. No need jumping into the 'Hall Of Famers' just yet and the rule of thumb is that 'if it's too good to be true, it most definately is'. Graded cards are a great way to insure you are buying the real thing and avoid that 'ungraded' T206 Honus Wagner from a 'found cigar box' with the image taken from a shaky Sesna four thousand feet above that's at $700 with three minutes left. Fraud exists in a major way.
