Like many of you I'm sure, I can't help but hit antique, flea markets type places looking for baseball stuff, particularly when I'm in some off the beaten path kind of place. What I've generally found are occasionally a few old baseball cards priced stupidly, and maybe a few rifled through cases of modern era cards.

I know there have been numerous threads of "have you ever found something cool" in one of these type places. But has anyone ever found something particularly valuable? Let's arbitrarily pick $1000. Has anyone found an item in one of these type joints that cost only a few bucks and was worth over $1000?

Guessing highly unlikely. But won't stop me from the free entertainment of walking through these places and poking around. Always a great way of killing a few hours. My version of walking along the beach with one of those metal detectors. . . . .
