look what i found - snappyjoe75 - 01-10-2012

well i dont know if this belongs in this thread,but i will put it here. so im downstairs in my basement trying to clean up and throw away boxes or things in them that we dont need. well i came to this one box, and wow, box full of baseball and football cards. so i started going through them and man, they are worth money!! so some that i found are 2 topps traded barry bonds. mint condition worth around 100. one is already graded. found a willie stargell in awesome condition. a marino and elway rookie card. those are to name a few. so i attached the photos of the big hits that i found. i think u will enjoy. havent decided to trade or sell or what!! i was just so excited. i feel like one of those storage shows people!!
enjoy and let me know what you think. oh and i found this auto ball. i believe that its a barry bonds as well. no coa though

Nice finds Joe.

So...were these something your Dad put down there and forgot about...or did you move into a new place and the previous owners had forgotten them?
Nice find though.

Is the baseball Barry Bonds? Nice finds there.


RE: look what i found - snappyjoe75 - 01-10-2012

i believe that the ball is a barry bonds. i want to find a place here in kansas that does that sort of things.
@ expediter. yeah we moved into a new home about 4 years ago and forgot all about them. hell, i even have unopened complete sets from different years. need to look in that box some more. i just found those on top.
@cspen, thanks man!!

thats a great find! if you ever think about trading that mcgwire, i'd definitely be interested!

Nice find indeed!

Nice stuff....great find for free.

I don't know if I'd say those Bonds cards are worth $100. They are graded by a knockoff company and the Topps Traded Bonds is off-center for sure. I'd get those things out of those cases and either leave them raw or have them regraded by a more reliable grading company.

But like i said, that is some nice stuff to find, especially for free. All I ever find is 90's base from old storage sheds my grandpa's friend cleans out haha.
