Beautiful!
Was on the fence a couple months ago about picking one up for about $50. Didn't. Then the hospice thing came and I looked around for another one. Wasn't happy with BiN prices on ebay of $70 and $75. Dumb. Will have to wait a year, or 2 for prices to settle back down. |

It's all about timing. Those cards were routinely selling anywhere $25-50 prior to the hospice announcement. With an SCG 10 Auto 10 selling for $50 on June 9th and a raw one for $30 on June 16th.
Last year I saw one auction at $16. Now they are auctioning for around $120 after death. |

Always loved those Pro Line auto's. The first one's that came in packs were damn hard to find. Santa was a top chase, Jack Kemp as well.
I have a Nick Lowery somewhere. He likes to draw a ball going through a field goal with his autos. Even the wives had autos. |

He signs at shows for like $10 in the KC area every now and then. You could spend $10 to make it worth $2.

I can't blame the guy for trying to make money from his son's success. Sure as hell wouldn't be signing autographs otherwise. Sounds bad but I don't mean it that way. |

It did suck seeing the prices go up in 1989 with the first set of Upper Deck. And it being Griffey Jr' rookie year just made it all the worse for kids. It only got worse. Now there are boxes with one pack selling for thousands of dollars. |
