Powerball at 700 Million...what would you buy?

[CrackaJackKid]

If you were to buy the winning ticket, with 700 million dollars...what's the first Sports card you'd buy?? And just for fun let's exclude the T206 Wagner cause I'm sure most everyone would say that.

I know no one would guess mine would be a Cracker Jack card(hence my name)
But I would buy a Christy Mathewson 1914. A close second would be Walter Johnsons 1907 Weiser Postcard. Always loved that image.

[T206Collector]

All of them. Every single one.

But seriously, I'd never get outbid on a signed pre-war card again.

I would first purchase Orlando Rodriguez's collection!!!!

Secondly, I would purchase Ken Kendrick's collection.

You can have mine for only half that powerball winnings. scan0011.jpg

And I would buy a Doyle Nat'l variation.

Or maybe that 8 figure item that Goldin is talking about.

....at least for 99% of us. Having unlimited funds just lets you buy whatever, whenever. I'd grab a Kaline PSA 9 collection.

I was thinking about this too. It would be like collecting 87-90 Topps right now where price is not a deterrent.

The ratios would be the same as that for all of the fun stuff we collect. The idea of unlimited want lists/limited resources is what makes the chase so much fun.

Not sure what I'd buy but I'd figure it out in an overwater bungalow in Bora Bora while wearing a speedo and sipping an alcoholic drink with a paper umbrella in it.

I'd buy Lichtman's collection.

With $700 mill, BUY that overwater bungalow in Bora Bora! Except it is way too humid for cards over there...
