my most expensive card is a 1986 fleer Jordan rookie (yea a basketball card / my only one) its a BVG 8 with sub grades of 9-8-8-9.5

Took me about a year to find the right one, im sure it will remain my highest priced card till i get to a real nice T205 cobb, or a drum back

Thanks Nelson, and where is your Plank!!!

Greg,

That Wagner is a nice looking example. Very clean. Best of luck if you go after the batting pose.

My most expensive is this Arlie Latham Player's League card. The nicest quality picture on an 1890 Old Judge that I have seen. The scan is from my old scanner, looks a little better in person. I don't have many high priced purchased, I'd rather go for quantity over quality.

Greg,
That's a tough spot. It is likely that some of your competition won't be as aware and be willing to "overpay" so to speak based on the incorrect grade. Then again as often as they surface you may have to bite the bullet and go for it.

If I recall correctly I didn't even bid on it, or if I did, I was a very low bidder. You basically stole my HOF'er from the set. Now you won't even return the favor with a DUPE D351....I mean seriously....where is the love?

Default I remember a lot of zeroes on the check...




.......at the time of issue these were for very rich kids because fifteen cents would buy you three nickel packs of 1952 Topps baseball cards.....
