Default Clipping up history - a bit O/T

I agree Anson. Last night I went crusing ebay just to see how much a piece of Babe Ruth bat would cost. I found several completed auctions for under $100. I also saw I could get a piece of Ted Williams bat for only $40.
I remember getting an Ivan Roderguiz jersey card in a UD pack back in 1999. It's book value was $120. By 2001 when there were packs offered in which there was guaranteed at least 1 piece of material a pack it was only half the value at $60. I believe it would have gone down a little but due to abundace of game used cards the price of individual cards don't sustain very well because tehre are so many alternatives to choose from. I don't know what the book value of that I-Rod is now but I bet I couldn't get $10 for it on ebay.
