This is a forum where people share opinions. Geez. I think it's foolish because it's an obvious bad investment. There is a Red variation and 40% of all the ones on earth are on eBay, but the regular variation is a $70 item and then there's an orange variation that sells for half the red (makes sense) and then there's a blue variation that sells for half of the orange and so on. At least with pre-war stuff, it isn't created out of marketing (a lotto-like reasoning) and the stuff holds it's value pretty fine. Not to mention the guy has been in baseball less than a week, as well. Hey, if you want to pay $1,000 (or if you don't like this one, there is another on eBay at $1,800) for this, fine with me but don't be surprised if you can only get back a few percentage points in return for your purchase ten years down the line. And if you want to talk to a colleague who invested $5,000 in J.D Drew rookies back when, I'll give you his contact information. Thought Drew would pay for his kid's college in ten years.
Regards,
Larry
