Hi everyone, wow, talk about fast replies! Yes, you all make some great points. I think I would just like to have more variety in the collection: a UDA baseball costs the same as a GAI baseball and 2 gateway cachets for example.

Also, as a newbie, I just wanted to gain some knowledge. I read Jim Spence's "autograph signing habits" articles and found them to be solid and insightful (yes, he makes mistakes, but let's not debate that one again! =)). I was hoping from the Mantle experts on this board to get a quick similar lesson about Mantle autographs since, scary to me, the real ones and the fake ones look so similar to me! (there was a past post with links to bad fakes and so many users said things like "wow those are just BAD!" and I thought "wow, I cannot even tell why!")

If you could impart some of this knowledge on me, that would be awesome! If not, thanks anyway! And thanks so much for your advice so far, you all rock!
