Had I known I would have kept it because it technically would have been part of my Tigers PC, LOL I also got some surfer relic but didn't recognize the name. 
Wow, old threads resurfacing ...
I bought a couple of 2020 A&G because they were the only baseball I had seen in months ... and every time after I’m done, I ask myself ... why?  I guess my 2 best A&G pulls of all time were a Kris Bryant mini auto and a Mike Trout Rip Card ![[Image: Ch4Mt.png]](http://i.imgur.com/Ch4Mt.png) I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

Theory #2: they sign up and randomly search for a specific topic in Beckett? I’m outta theories. Anyone else?

RE: My love / hate relationship with Allen Ginter
This is my theory.
My best friend is a big fan of baseball, and on his birthday I decided to give him a box of Allen&Ginter baseball cards. He loves relics, if I were to call them that. After searching all the sales sites, eBay, Amazon, I came here by chance. And here theories how new members could find old threads. I decided to write too. It happens when you are looking for something, and it shows you the forums where others have searched for the same thing. It's a Google thing.

I'll see members replying that I haven't seen/heard from in years, and I'll think, cool, Beckett is enjoying a resurgence ... and then I see the OP is from like 2014. |
