Trading cards ..rookie cards


Recommended Posts

I haven't collected or bought any cards in a very long time. What exactly am i looking for with these cards these days? Anyone know? Want to pick up rookie cards for Garret Wilson, breece hall, and sauce.

I collected Topps when I was a kid for baseball. No idea for football. Please help

I just weep for the loss of my cards I collected as a kid.  I know for sure a few of them would have been worth good money by now.  I collected baseball and hockey cards.

Yeah I had nostalgic curiosity as to the current status of the hobby a few months ago and read some articles. Basically, today the hobby is for (1) kids who don’t care about the value and just want pictures of their favorite players and buy a pack of mass-produced cards at Walmart that has no chance to ever have value or (2) psycho obsessive manchildren who buy these curated boxes for thousands of dollars that have pieces of jerseys, autographs, and probably player blood samples embedded into the cards. Oh and of course they open them on YouTube.

Call me a grumpy old man but that sounds pretty ******* stupid. But to each his own.
