From around 1995 - 2000 my X and I needed something to do as a hobby and we started collecting baseball cards. I probably have 40k+ cards in boxes and I'm going through them to get rid of them on ebay or whatever. I have some complete sets I'm putting up and I have some "working sets" I was trying to put together, along with lots of inserts and crap.

Anyone collect these on NICO or have a certain player they like? I'm letting these go pretty damn cheap.

I used to collect Upper Deck Baseball and Hockey cards. I gave all of mine away when I lost interest. The one card I should have kept was the Michael Jordan baseball card.

^ My middle name was named after him from my dad.

I have a couple of signed baseballs. Nolan Ryan, Warren Spahn, 1 or 2 more, and a smeared baseball with all the players from the Orioles, 95 or so. I have very few cards with value but I do have a couple of gold plated baseball cards of famous players.

Your middle name is AZHitman??

My card collection is mostly from the mid-late 60's. I wish I had taken better car of them as a kid, they might be worth more.

Cards are only worth what someone is willing to pay. When the X and I started collecting I was a Braves fan (still am I guess, just don't watch baseball on tv anymore) and Andrew Jones was a rookie. After he hit 2 homers in his first two at bats in the '96 WS I decided to start collecting his cards. I probably have 500+ different cards ( up through 2001) of his ranging from rookies to a 1/1 press plate. He never really had a blow-out batting season as I expected but at least he was in 5 all-star games and was a 10x gold glove. Still hoping that collection will be really worth something one day
