That's like offering gold as a payment to a def/blind person. What do you expect them do do, say yes without really knowing what it is besides what you tell them it is? It could be a rock for all they know. Most people couldn't tell the difference between a T206 Honus Wagner and a 1989 Topps Mookie Wilson. What do you expect. Sell the cards, then buy the car with the money.

So many insightful, well-thought out posts today. What surprises me mainly is that the guys with little cash on this thread are the smartest of all. I can't understand how you guys don't earn more money to buy more expensive cards. Seriously, you guys need to live up to your potential. Thanks for the tips, I'm actually about to buy two new cars this week.
