I was referring to tbob's post, the first posting after your statement. All I would like to say is that I have sold plenty of cards from that set over the last 3 years and I am telling you honestly that the prices are going up. The set is personally not my taste but I guarantee you it will rise in price in the next 20 years when Clemens etc. reach the hall and if Mark Prior and Joe Mauer (who have autos in that set) have Hall of Fame careers that set will go through the roof. The t206's are along for the ride and will hold their value and a little greater I believe. I do also think that Retro cards in sets are nothing new-the Lajoie Goudey card was well after he retired and Babe Ruth's 1948 Leaf was well after his playing career-these are slightly different circumstances but still they elevated the worth of these sets.
