Post by: ben ji on January 09, 2013, 08:55:38 AM
I had a couple of boxes full of FB and BB cards, used to spend hours looking up their value in books. Last time I remember looking it up the value was around $600 in the late 90's.

I always told myself I would sell them for spending money in college but they were pretty much worthless by that time.

2 Years ago my parents basement flooded and I got $400 from the insurance company!!!

I pulled any that may resemble value some day and put them in cases.  The rest are in a big box.  Someday I want to get a storage locker, put a few empty guitar cases, box of shitty cards, empty expensive jewlery boxes and other crap in there and just let it go to auction.  Then go and enjoy the auction.

Oh wow. Sorry to hear about this steve dave. I would like to start a fundraiser to help you in your time of need. My goal is to raise enough money that you can keep your KGJ cards that I'm sure hold a lot of sentimental value.

I'm thinking a car wash and bake sale to start.

First make him take up the hobby.  If he doesn't care for it, just push harder.  Don't be afraid to smack him in his face and call him names to get it done.  He'll thank you for it later on down the road.  It's a financial investment and a pastime.  Sometimes the best thing for your kid is a bloody nose and a pack of baseball cards.  :thumbs:

violence?  no.  i'm sorry but we're going to have to agree to disagree on this one.

the best way to get him to like collecting ken griffey jr baseball cards is to continue to super glue a different KGJ card to the kid every day until he starts liking them.  start with his chest, then his back, arms, forehead, etc.  glue the entire card to him too, you may consider using a paint brush, dipping it into a can of super glue, and brushing the adhesive onto the card so that it sticks really well. 

anyway, that's how i would do it and i bet it would work rather well.

Hi, I'm Ken Griffey Jr. I was the best overall player for 3 or 4 years when I was with the Mariners, then I went to play for the Reds instead and suffered injuries like 10 years in a row because my fragile body couldn't handle the 'roids. Now young adults who grew up watching me play but no longer follow baseball don't realize that there are players in the league now who are light years better than I ever was and they expect my baseball cards to be valuable just like Babe Ruth's. It's great.

Mostly football cards but some baseball and unopened packs of both from the late 80s early 90s.

Most valuable card I think I have based on googling is a Bo Jackson baseball rookie and a Barry Sanders rookie

I have moved most of my cards on twitter through the below twitter account.  If you post what you have for sale he will retweet it to his followers and you get a large audience interested in your cards that will likely make you an offer higher than if you were just trying to sell them to a card shop.  You will probably get more selling the higher end cards individually but someone may make you an offer on them all if you go that route.
