So, for those of you who saw my lot I bought a couple of weeks ago...this is a follow up...

I had a "sale" yesterday, just posted it on Craigslist and sold 2 800 count boxes of my 3 cent cards for $32 (I had advertised they could fill an 800 count box for $16 and) and had tons left over from my pickup from a couple of weeks ago that I had bought for $80, and I hadn't sold any of the "good" cards.

So, I saw another lot for $50 on Craigslist. There were a lot of cards...maybe 5-8000 cards. Fair enough price, but looking through, I found very few stars, no inserts or parallels, and worst of all...alot of late 80s to early 90s....a few 2002-2004, and even some 70s and 80s vintage, but I couldn't bring myself to spend $50 on it. I flipped through a little bit more and did see an interesting "game used" card....A Ronald Reagen seat card from Topps. I'm not big into seat cards, but thought it had potential....but I also knew that the lot would likely not hold much else...I offered $30 figuring I was getting a tupperware tub, a binder and pages, some hard card holders..he took it.

I have gone through most of it now..and will give some highlights...

alright..so the final things I will add to this I believe include the following:

42 Sports Illustrated for Kids cards..figured these wouldn't be worth much, but looks like commons are about 50 cents each...have stars like Gretzky, Griffey, Ripken, Aikman, Magic, and others

90+ 1992 Olympic Hopefuls. These seems to book anywhere from .25 to $2 and include De La Hoya, Courrier, Jackie Joyner Kersee, Patrick Ewing, Malone, and the baseball team.

Supplies broke down to the following:

1 binder
100+ sheets
50+ hard card holders
4 baseball holders
about 200 soft sleeves
1995 Tombstone Quarterbacks Challenge Set
1993 & 1994 Post Baseball complete sets

I think for $30, with all of the stuff I have listed in this thread..I have done pretty well..
