    As far as two grown men meeting at the mall for a flick and then hitting up the go karts, probably something we need to share over a PM

    Wife and I only go to Fort Worth drive- in but I do have a truck so you and the wife are more than welcome to go with us.

    Oh yea the grading system is where I fell out of cards. That was part of the fun was checking the corners and looking at the card itself for creases or photo not aligned or whatever. The fact that you have to have it graded by some baseball card jeweler now is crazy.

    Fawk Vegas, I should have sold them back in the day. I could have used $200 way back then ALOT more than I could use $60 right now.

    I've never had a card graded. Never bought a graded card.
    Pointless. Ruins the spirit of collecting.
    They're worth what someone's gonna pay.
    I sold 1957 Ted Williams for $80 & was lucky to get it.
    I pulled a big money Carey Price card & sold it to the 1st person who transfered $200 chips to my pokerstars account.
    Grades & book values are irrelevant now.

    I wouldn't say irrelevant but it can be very subjective

    are card prices more compared to US Jay? Meaning unopened packs/ boxes

    Dee Gordon is lighting it up, in Spite of playing for one of the worst teams in baseball.
    He is actually leading the entire majors in Batting Average.
    If Dee Gordon hits a HR today I will ship this card to you
    2011 Gem Mint 10 Dee Gordon Topps RC: https://youtu.be/gkaesDF7sYs
    All you have to do is guess closest to the inning he does it in & have more than 500 posts.
    Duplicate guesses are allowed(meaning you can still only guess once but you can guess the same inning as some one before you.)

    Note: in order to qualify you must post the handle of the SBR poster you hate the most

    Seto but I wouldn't say dislike just like a guy I would want to knock out a few times.
    Against Scott Copeland, he may hit two!

    In addition to the Short Print Diamond Anniversary cards there were rarer Short Print cards called Cognac cards. They had the same sparkly pattern but were Cognac coloured. I pulled about a dozen of these Cognac cards from packs in 2011 but only pulled 3 significant players.
    One was a Short print Phil Rizutto Cognac, which was very rare because it was an I sert to the regular set & the other one was Triple Crown. I don't sell or give away any of my Miguel Cabrera cards.
    The other was arguably the best card I could pul in 2011.
    2011 Topps Diamond Anniversary Clayton Kershaw: https://youtu.be/PxIuj0iQ2aw

    If Kershaw records a win tonight I will ship this big money card anywhere you want.
    All you have to do is guess the final score.
    One guess per account.
    No Duplicate guesses.

    Good luck
