Hi, my name is Marie and I am addicted to cardboard. The first step is admitting you have a problem. Though I have no idea what the second step is, I am pretty sure it involves fixing that problem. Clearly, I have no intention of fixing my addiction.
I picked up this card sometime last week on eBay for a whole $1.74 which is well worth it to me. It is a 2007 Topps Co-Signers dual autograph of Adam Lind and Delwyn Young.
Oddly enough today I was browsing on eBay and saw a 2007 Masterpieces auto of Lind that I really wanted because it is on card, however the bidding got to $3.50 and for some reason I find that kind of ridiculous. I understand in the scheme of things that $3.50 is not alot of money to spend on an autograph, and of a person who I collect. The problem here is that I am just not really sure if I think he is worth $3.50 for one card. Maybe I am crazy. Don't say it.
Some people think he could have a break out year this year, but I will wait to see it with my own eyes before believing speculation. My whole reason for starting this in the first place is based on speculation, and the fact that I could scoop up cards at a cheap price. Then again compared to Pujols anything is a cheap price. We'll see what happens.
try collecting Adam LaRoche... it seems that the collecting world has put him alongside Albert in terms of value.....
ReplyDeleteI would have passed on that one too. Theres no rush you can probably find another one for less before you know it.
ReplyDeleteMarie, not to go off-topic but that Hughes is all yours if you send an SASE.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mario!!! I just send you an e-mail.
ReplyDeleteAs they say, something is only worth what someone else will pay! Only pay what YOU think you should pay. :-)
