good packs weren't getting camped out for by grown men or being sold for 5x msrp by card shops it'd be a lot more enjoyable


Should bring back the old style cards that can be collected just for fun and leave the chase cards for speculators. Make the albums widely available again too.

Might be an avenue to drum up fan interest in the game.

What kind of cards? Brand, year, team?

Someone on the OT will be interested.

There's a bunch of nice ones out there. Cards look good these days. But much like in the 90s are largely mass produced and not particularly valuable. There's digital cards now.

Wonder what they will charge for the Jayden Daniels RC?

My dad and I still collect cards. Probably have close to 20k total. Still collect baseball memorabilia as well.

I've floated the idea myself a time or two, but I'll just keep the 35-40 year cards and sets I saved. I even have Diamond Dawg team set from the mid 80s.

I have about 25 or so volumes of cards, mostly from the ‘50’s and “60’s with many ‘70’s mixed in. I’m getting ready to sell all of them on EBay or Heritage Auctions. I’m getting up there in age and don’t want my family trying to figure out what to do with them one day.

Many years ago, I put together a complete set of 1959 Topps because that was the year when I was most fanatical as a kid. I took my time and have an Ex-Nm set.

I also have about 60 T206 (tobacco - 1909-1911) cards that I picked up at auction as the only bidder. Often no one was interested because of their condition. However, even graded 1 or 2, many are worth $100-$200.

It’s been fun!

I bought 1 pack a couple years ago for the first time in 20 plus years.

Got some Jersey card for a rookie for the Phillies.

I've still got mine from the 50s-60's-till the mid 70's.

I've got around 125 of them....Got Bob Gibson...Mickey Mantle 3rd and 4th year cards...Sandy Kofax...Reggie Jackson...Several of Hank Aaron...Pete Rose...Roberto Clemente...Willie Mays....Harmom Killebrew....Thurman Munson....Roger Maris as a Yankee and Cardinal......And many others.

I had a big collector come to my house several years back and at the time baseball cards were pretty hot. He offered me 2,000 for 3 of my Cards and I wouldn't take it....And my cards aren't the greatest of shape...I would never sell them.

did as a kid and thinking about picking it back up. 24.99 on Amazon for a bunch.


If you have disposable income get on whatnot.

Live auction app. Lots of card streams.
