Anyone know the value of this baseball card?

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

Let's hope that grading bull never catches on with games.
I agree. I dont partake in card collecting anymore. And, I bet in time, video games will also be graded on a scale also. (sounds like a good business at ground level!)

Oops, I thought they numbered the cards separately. I guess Tiffany and the normal cards have the same number. So I guess they are identical cards, except Tiffany is high gloss and says Tiffany on the back. My mistake. Good luck with the sale. I have some baseball cards I need to sell off as well.

How many people do you have watching your auction so far?

Lol I happen to have a 1992 Topps Derek Jeter Rookie card.. Still now worth all that much so I guess I plan on keeping it... And maybe in about 80 years it will be worth 10 bucks...

You might actually get $100 for your card. The auction is up to $65 with 2 hours to go. Hard to believe someone would pay that much for a baseball card. Glad it's not me.

Well, I sold it for my reserve price of $65. I cant complain, I only had a few dollars invested into it. My guess, since David Ortiz is having a great year, that he's back on the muscle juice and it wont be long before he is exposed again. Anyway, happy to get rid of it!
