Sports Cards

Sports cards started as simply a fun hobby for kids. About 35 years ago, it was a combination of hobby and gambling. As more time passes, it is becoming a gambling hobby.

When I go through the boxes in the basement and find a valuable card, it is definitely like hitting the trifecta at a horse race.

35 years ago? More like 70 years ago. Except those idiots put Mickey Mantle Rookie cards in the spokes of their bike.

Or you have a mother that gave your card collection away to the kid down the street. Had both Maris and Mantle cards. Also my favorite player as a kid some guy named Larry Doby.
 
On the site I previously posted about, I once in a while will pick up cards outside of the sports world. Sometimes they are dirt cheap and I can pick up a card for a couple of cents even if I don't have much interest in them, its worth the chance to flip them at such a low price.

Interestingly this week, I've sold quite a few Kamala Harris cards. I'm guessing there are alot of speculators buying them now expecting her to become the first female President in the near future.
