Baseball cards....
I have 2,000 or so that I'm wanting to sell. I want to get rid of them because I'm totally uninterested anymore, and they just take up space. I'll post pics of them tomorrow, but if you have any guesses as to how much I should sell them for, I'm open!

I know I didn't really give all that much information, but I need an estimate on how much I should sell them for...

as I said, I'll post pics (hopefully) tomorrow.

It is really going to depend on the individual cards. How old they are, their quality. I do look forward to the pictures.

I agree with Art...it really depends on the era, brand and condition. If it were 2000 generic mid/late 1980s cards you might get $15 or $20 for them.

Man...I should take pictures of my sports (mostly baseball) card collection sometime. Of course, I don't think I have anything newer than like...1998.

It really bummed me out when manufacturers started going with specialized card sets over complete rosters. I loved collecting cards of my favorite players and I used to organize my cards by teams. When packs of cards started to get smaller while the prices got higher I really lost interest.

Agreed.

I need to dig my box of "good cards" out of my parents' garage.

All of my cards are in a large box at my parents house. I thought that was a good idea until I tried to move the box...

Haha. My box isn't too big. I put it there, I should be able to pull it out.

And probably a few valuable cards.

I made the sad mistake of wasting $50 on the 04 topps complete set...
most of my cards are from 1970-80
