"So eventually our whole house will be filled with baseball catalogs?"

I keep the ones that have historic finds or great eye appeal and donate the rest to my local Salvation Army store for someone else to enjoy.

I've been throwing my old ones out. I live in an apartment, and space is at a premium.

I have pitched a ton of catalogs over the years. Save 'em for awhile then realize they are taking up way too much space. Still have six or seven "Barry Sloate" catalogs from 2005 +/- though. You ran dandy little auctions, Barry.

Thanks David, they were fun. And as I always said, my catalog made an excellent bookmark to use for the larger catalogs.

Beautiful catalogs but I tend to prefer looking at them online. Plus it saves like a half a trees worth of paper. Those Heritage Catalogs are huge.

I too have thrown away most of the catalogs I was harboring. I used to keep catalogs depicting significant finds or cards I sold through the auction...but the internet doesn't take up space in my house...so now many go shortly after I receive them!

hint hint...stop sending them to me!!!!

I save catalogs that I never looked at on arrival. Imagine the thrill of ultimately finding something you really want and then the agony of realizing that the auction closed four years ago.

Frank- some of those auctions you think may have ended four years ago might still be going on, as a result of heavy bidding.

I have a lot of your old catalogs Barry. Still wish you had your auctions, they were ALWAYS enjoyable. It's not the quantity in the catalog, it's the quality!

Thanks Fred, but all things must pass.

recycled mine unless I sold something in the auction.
