Complete waste of money. Could get 6-10 T206 HOF'ers for that or a nice Cobb. It will NEVER be worth that price and when he fails or becomes just a "good" player it'll be worth 1/10 of that (or less). Forrest Gump said "Stupid is as stupid does"

I'm sorry, I always get annoyed pre-war collectors snap at the prices of modern insert cards. So what if he might be a prospect that might bust? What about tobacco or caramel collectors who shell out thousands of dollars on a beat to crap type card of someone who never made it out of the minor leagues? Granted one is based on artificial rarity, but who are we to judge how someone spends their money on the hobby?

Richard, As a fellow Met fan. I agree, way too much money for that card. But, it sure has been an exciting week and a half since he's been called up. With Santana on the mound let's get this rubber match game. Let's Go Mets!
