Haha, I feel the same way... or worse, when I simply post in a thread and it dies. I literally had that happen when I posted in a thread and it somehow ended up in the "testing forum".

No idea what that was all about, but I digress.

This one's tough because I don't have scans of most of my lower value cards and/or sentimental ones given me by my parents, etc. Here are a couple though...

2) sentimental--- this Babe was my first major/large purchase, coming from Simsclassicsports in 2000. I've been "all in" ever since. No coincidence- it came during my first solid paying summer internship, and I was living at home!

3) under $50--- this Snider (photo'd with Willie and the Mick) is a favorite, also for sentimental reasons. My dad gave it to me while I was in HS. His favorite player growing up had been Snider (named his dog Duke) and my favorite vintage set at that point was '56 Topps (mainly cuz a kid in my middle school had traded a bunch of them for candy bars, Garbage Pail Kids, etc).
