I used to collect sports cards. Kinda spilled over since I was buying a lot of comics and non-sport cards at the time. Haven't bought a card in about 15 years.I was heavy into NBA cards and a few baseball and football cards of my favorite players.

I used to collect a lot when I was younger and just recently got back in the hobby. I bought a couple jersey cards on ebay for good prices I got a Ken Griffey Jr game used jersey card for only 6.99 which is gonna shoot up in price now that he just got his 600th homerun.( I am in Cincinnati). I got a Jerry Rice game used jersey card for only 9.00 bucks which is awesome considering Jerry Rice is my all time favorite football player, and I also got a Kobe Bryant game used jersey card for 12.00 which is also awesome. Then I bought hot packs that were guaranteed to have game used or auto cards in them on ebay as well. If anyone doesnt know what I mean by hot packs jersey cards and auto cards are like the thickness of 4 regular cards stacked together and they have a dip in them where either the auto sticker or the jersey patch is at so ppl called pack searchers go to retailers and feel them to find the jersey or autos in the packs, then they either open them or sell them. I bought some packs from a guy on ebay the other day and pulled a Larry Bird game used Jersey card, a Shaq game used jersey card, and a Dual game used jersey card of Kobe Bryant/Allen Iverson. I have another 12 packs coming from him this weekend so I am excited to rekindle my interest in this old hobby! I forgot how exciting it was to open a pack and find a cool insert of your favorite players.

i was real into the jersey cards and would go to my local stores all the time to find them lol . but i mainly had them from wrestling and had some SUPER RARE ones . i can't really find the autographs but i can always find the packs with the clothing . i'll tell you it's so easy to find the lord of the rings or harry potter ones lol . but now with sports , all i was really into were the old baseball player jerseys which you would pay through the nose for a box but in return you could win big . i had some great old players out of the ones i found . mike,

I have Ken Griffy Jr's Upperdeck 1989 Rookie that I pulled from a pack myself. Also have a fleer Ripken rookie.I think they were worth a lot more before the damn internet. Now baseball cards are too easy to get.If I were to ever collect again, the new SUPER RARE inserts they put in packs now, that are like 1 in every 100,000 packs lol, are the way to go. I know stuff like that goes up in value fast.But rookies like Bonds, Mcguire, etc. just don't seem to be rare like they used to be,
