A slightly different perspective.

While personally I'm tired of seeing the pre-1930 cards category jammed up with these non-cards, its not an illogical place to put them. Given that the target audience is baseball/sports collectors, asking that these things be posted in scrapbooking doesn't make sense, however, it would make sense to suggest a sports category for non-cards, say

> Sports Mem, Cards & Fan Shop > Other Sports Memorabilia > Other

If I go for a minute with Roys contention that he's not trying to deceive in the descriptions, then what i don't understand is why many items carry BIN's and very high BIN's at that. While BIN's don't always accurately reflect the value of the object, they are typically representative of the value e.g. a low BIN points to the item having a low value, while a high BIN points to the item having a high value. There are always people who set the market, but $795 for a page out of a Spalding guide is just plain trying to mislead people.
