No doubt ! I already bought 1989 fleer glossy Griffey rookie for 15 dollar PSA 8

And a complete set as well that Griffey is a PSA 9 I got the set for 25 . This was 3years ago on the PSA 8 and 1 yer ago one the set . The PSA 8 now sells for 50 and the 9 sells for 200 . So the idea of this thread is base on this .

If you can think of other players that will get the call to the hall in a few years . Your best bet is to get on board now .

Come on guys nobody has any guys they can think of ?

If you are talking about investing prior to them being part of the HOF talk shouldn't the title be "Get them while they're not hot"?

People that seem like sure locks when they are on the ballot:

Pujols
Jeter
Miguel Cabrera
Ichiro
Mariano Rivera

Yeah but it didn't sound as catchy . Only jeter and Rivera are retired . But those are some good ones . To bad by me the sell with premiums . In NJ/NY a reg topps jeter rookie sells for 10 to 15 .

Ah ok I see what you're saying. Get them now and then sell for premium during induction year. I thought we were talking about long run. I don't see the premiums holding 20 years from now, but who knows.

I don't see the premium holding up on most, but some rarities may . Rivera is looking lower the his retirement year . I picked up 5 packs of 1992 bowman pizza, Rivera , chipper all in one set . I got the packs for a good price .

He was already mentioned and I know he is still active but I feel Ichiro would be one of the biggest up swing potentials. He has faded from the spotlight in Miami and doesn't get the national buzz he used to so picking up his stuff now is easy. His rookies were produced after the production slow down started so it's not as cheap and accessible as 91 Topps but not 1/1 either.

Once he does retire in a year or so he will have to wait five more for induction. That's at least six or seven years from now until he is in the main spotlight of the hall of fame.

Once induction comes all the memories of his unreal hitting in a time when PED numbers were rampant. All those consecutive 200+ hit years and on top of that the first Asian born HOFer will make his stuff go through the roof.

All just speculation but seems pretty plausible to me.
