Me too, in fact I have about 14 cards of Ruth from his playing days, BUT THEY ARE NOT MINT!!!

Also, as many have said here, i constantly get asked how much is your collection worth. I hate that, i always say just that its got good value, but not great value due to the cards NOT BEING MINT!!!

But most of the time, their eyes just glaze over as Brad said, and they have zero interest in my collection!! Particularly after i say ITS NOT MINT!!!

Quite honestly... Being around and handling Mint cards make me a little nervous... Aside from the potential that they are altered or tampered with... The fact that they are so perfect... Like friends that we may have who never do anything wrong... Make me uncomfortable!!!

I agree with what a lot of the members said on here, my cards aren't mint either and never will be I like to collect for the fun and love of owning the cards. It's always about owning the cards to me, never how much I can get for it. Brad I searched the Camaro and wow a beauty of a car. The worst question I always get asked is, "How much did you pay for that", I don't like to say cause people out side of collecting don't seem so interested and just get silent so I don't say really. Coming here on Net54 I can actually talk to fellow collectors who share the same passion, and know what were talking about and we crticze ones collection, cause we all seem to share the same interest, just different collecting themes.
