I was browsing ebay the otherday. Love'em or hate'em it's still the largest marketplace for used stuff on the web. And I thought for some reason what I could get a 86 Topps Traded Barry Bonds rookie for. Now I did my basic homework. I looked up the guide price, about 20 bucks, looked on the sportslizard, too much variation with graded cards to be useful. I was not looking for a graded card. So I looked around ebay and found a seller that had not one but 2 Barry rookies up for auction. Both starting at 89 cents. And like all good ebayers I bid on both to take advantage of the combine shipping. Right at the end I had one of the rookies bid up over my maximium bid but I still got the other card for a whole 89 cents plus shipping. And 2 weeks later
BAM!
Add Barry to the collection. I wonder if I knocked him down a few bucks in the guides. The card is great not mint I can see one corner is a little less sharp than the rest but overall well worth the 89 cents and shipping.
