My current rules of thumb are if I don't remember I have it or if I haven't seen it in years, and I come across it, sell it.

I have small, medium and large stacks of stuff I always need to sell....but I'm lazy. I will get a round to it when I get around to it.

We put old boxes, padded envelopes, and bubble wrap into the garage for later reuse or recycling. it seems every now and then my dad gets a card in the mail, opens it, but somehow the box (with the purchase) ends up in the garage.
I've found a few of his purchases in the old box pile in the garage, sometimes as I'm breaking down boxes for recycling. Always a bit concerning....

Jay Cee - no wonder you can’t find your Cy Young Cab! It’s probably in the final mystery box!
If you are looking to move the Leslie’s Weekly you shared, I would be interested. And I agree, that Indy 500 pano is off the charts!

Back in the 90'S a trash man discovered over 1,000 T2o6 and E-cards in Cheese Boxes in the trash. The owner a Antique dealer for 60 plus years had passed and I guess didn't have any close family so the City of Cairo, Illinois didn't think they had any value. They did have a two day auction later.
Anyway the trashman contacted a Antique dealer in Charleston MO and offered the lot for 200.00. the dealer didn't didn't get it and declined. Mean while the trashman did some checking on the phone the cards, he found out the cards were a gold mine--he sold the T206 he said for 30,000 (probably Cheap)--anyway he held back a 100 or so E-cards which I bought.--Can you believe the Antique Dealer passed on the 200.00 dollar offer, he later told me was a huge mistake, and of course made him sick to his stomach--NO kidding! The mistake I made I had visited the Antique shop several time and he always ask ANYTHING YOUR LOOKING FOR? No I would answer, if I had just asked --HAVE ANY OLD BASEBALL CARDS-- so from now on I ask--TRUE STORY! Last edited by Directly; 02-14-2024 at 07:08 AM. |

You could buy the entire town of Cairo for less than those cards are worth. It's become a sadly disturbing-looking place, yet one I have a strange desire to visit. At least Detroit has tried to knock down a lot of its blight. Last edited by BillyCoxDodgers3B; 02-14-2024 at 07:18 AM. |

Are there actually people living in Cairo or have the Zombies taken over.
