You wouldn't believe how little all that is worth too! I have thousands of cards, some that used to be work hundreds of dollars like my Jerry Rice rookie card (Now $25!). Now most are worth nothing to a few bucks. I was looking to sell mine but it honestly wasn't worth the time to get rid of most of them seeing what I would get back. I would keep some of the autograph and game jersey cards of players I like, but even the ones of players I don't give two shits about just aren't worth anything anymore. And to think of how much I spent to get all of those cards!

I'm sticking to strictly autographed and authenticated memorabilia from now on like bats, balls and jerseys.

Yep, thats the only way to go anymore Lew, buy the pieces that you already know are going to be worth something... the days of finding a gold nugget in your bubblegum pack are pretty much looong gone.

Its become big business and not just a fun, quaint hobby.

I don't see how modern cards are worth anything. Manufacturers realized that they can produce something for a penny that people are paying $20 for, so of course they're going to glut the market with them. The whole concept of a collectible is having a limited supply, and there's no limit on the supply of cardboard with printing on it.

On a related note, I find it funny when I see a new item that says "collectible" on it. You can pretty much guarantee that any new item that says "collectible" will never be worth anything, because people will save them because of the label.

They've gotten smart and done what you have said and limit the production of card sizes. Many of the autographed and game used cards are numbered production today. That autographed/game used card of Jamaal Charles I bought was limited production to 299. Some basic rookie cards are even numbered production now.

If they're smart, they start doing a limited edition of 1,000, and then they wait until people start selling them on ebay, and then they start making new copies and selling them for $25. (Edit: maybe that's a shortsighted strategy, but there's likely a variant that could work.)

I just don't think you can have a collectible where the ability exists to make more. Or at least I sure wouldn't buy one.

Way cool, i actually have that fourth DT with Score, a nice card.

The DJ is sweeet, a great example of the modern cards, same with the Priest jersey... the new stuff is just sooo much more appealing and better looking.

I got a Jamaal Charles autographed rookie card with a piece of a game ball and game jersey on the same card as well. Was a present for my buddy who helped me move down here. It was a sweet card....I almost wanted to keep it for myself!

Regardless of what some of my favorite cards are worth, they aren't ever getting sold because I like just having them. Just an example of an over-saturated card market, that DT Score rookie, which I have as well, used to be worth +$30 and is now worth less than $5.
