Setting Definitions for Rarity of Cards

[Rich Klein]

if I own it, not rare -- if Leon owns it -- very rare

If you make 50 of a card and only 25 people want it (manufactured scarcity) -- you have an easy card

And supply and demand -- the rarest and most expensive stamp is a postally used dirty and written on 1c british guyana stamp which wikipedia (and we know how reliable the internets are) says is locked up in a bank vault because the owner died while in prison.

My goal is the find of Fans Card including Cobb and Ruth

I am with Jeff. One of two things, you were either joking around with us or sadly mistaking. No subject is permanently closed on this board.....

I guess, much like religion and science, when faced with an undeniable argument there will still be people(lots of them) who don't believe what is being said or shown to them.

Verbal falacy:

Argument from Innuendo:
This fallacy consists in directing others to a certain conclusion through a careful choice of words or sentences that suggest but do not assert that conclusion. For example, a dean of students, asked whether a graduate had any disciplinary problems, replied "No, we were never able to convict him of any violations of college rules." The suggestion here is that the university had suspected and/or investigated disciplinary problems. The use of innuendo is not strictly fallacious (for example, in the above example); there isn't anything inherently fallacious about suggesting a conclusion implicitly without offering evidence, and innuendo often occurs outside the context of an argument. The fallacy arises in cases when such an argument is used to shift the burden of proof, making it similar to the fallacy of argument from ignorance.

You guys can continue to debate it if you would like to
