So, I forgot about this thread... Sorry for the lack of response.

Late last week, I found one in an auction. $15.50 in a binder with sheets and free shipping. Somewhere in there, I think they paid me to take the cards....


So as the story goes, I went to put my 87 in a binder this weekend. I open it up and it is 88!!!?!!. I bought it for $5 at National, so it is not a killer - except now I have 2 88s and no 87, so the search begins again...

I now have an extra 88, 89, 90. I have them on Craigslist basically trying to do a $3/15 deal because shipping costs more than the cards - and no one is biting...

I told my son this weekend, that I am going to be the smart one. Everyone is in the process of throwing them out now, so in 30 years, they will be more scarce and suddenly there will be a run on them, I will be the smart guy with 2 sets of each of those years!!!


One can only dream..
