It was also out of spite for no Pirates in the set. Maybe someday I'll start buying them again to finish my goal, but I think it's been at least 14 years since I bought one.
A T204 Tom Reilly just sold on the BST today... perhaps it suddenly has new value as a scarcity? An increase in demand?

The guy hit .180 and couldn't field. Are you sure it wasn't someone paying someone to take the card off their hands?
