Well, not really ...Im "sheepishly" announcing that I "can not" sell my collection.
I tried...went back and forth so many times...took advice/suggestions/offers from dozens and dozens of collectors/ dealers/buys/auctioneers,etc...

Every time I put another set in the shipping box...I took it back out .." No , I don't want to get rid of that one"...then do the same thing with the next set ! LOL

Just cant seem to breakaway, I just love collecting" photos of men I never met before"

Like Pacino in the Godfather - "Every time I get out.. they keep pulling me back in ! "

For the haters who might say... Oh..he did that to show off his collection..( no not really.. those G F P cards are nothing to brag about)

or.. he was just trying to gauge the market for his stuff ( again..no..not really...beat up stuff is beat up stuff)

So anyway, I appreciate all the offers and suggestions, but I guess Im gonna keep on being a full grown adult.." who still collects baseball cards " !

This is a BIG -1

You should have made up your mind before you posted it for sale...in the wrong forum nonetheless. You wasted people's time.

Bad move IMO.

David,

I don't know that he intended to 'waste' people's time. I think he had a desire, whether impulsive or planned, to sell. I think after making the initial post he probably had 'seller's remorse' and decided to keep his collection.

In my opinion, no harm, no foul.

But yes, in the wrong section!

Whether he intended to or not, he did.

A Big Plus 1. Ralph and I had a nice discussion by phone and we never would have met if it wasn't for this thread. I don't understand some peoples negativity?

So back to my steps..you will repeat the process again and again only natural....when the card prices crash though many collectors will be holding the bag but its not like we are in it for the money..its a hobby and hobbys cost money...so I say keep the cards until the crash...
