Back in the late 80s I was around 10 yrs old and saved up $20 from selling newspapers (standing in the roads in St. Augustine, FL on the weekends) and went into the local card shop. The owner, a sleezeball who saw that I had $20 to spend, told me he had a "NM" Bo Jackson football rookie card. SUPER HOT! How much? $20! I didn't really even want it, but he talked me into it. Its closer in condition to "VG" by todays standards.
