I'm passing on the Clemente. I did pick this one up. It is more consistent with my modest condition requirements. It has nice eye appeal, gloss, and decent centering. The corners are a bit soft but it was within my predetermined price range. I recently sold some unopened basketball boxes I found. I sold them for a nice profit. I am reinvesting the profits in hopes of improving my baseball collection. My goal is to pick up a 55 Clemente and a 33 Goudey Ruth to accompany this Aaron. I had hoped to have the Clemente and Ruth this past weekend. Obviously the Clemente is not going to happen at the $400 price range. I have $2700 left and am hoping to obtain a Clemente in similar condition to this Aaron. If possible I would settle for a nice PSA 2 Ruth. Obviously the price of the Clemente I purchase will impact my choice of a Ruth. I hoped to accomplish this by solely using the money generated from the sale of the basketball cards. I'm not sure that is going to be possible now but I am enjoying trying. Thanks again for all of the input.
