  • My brother and I went to an indoor flea market and found a bunch of cards. One sweet old lady had a ton of cards including a rare error variation card that you will immediate recognize as it is one of the most famous cards of all time.
    Check out all the cards I bought and then stay tuned for my Follow the Flip round 3 cards in the recap.

    So I grew up in Los Angeles so yes I'm a Dodger fan and My favorite player was Orel Hershiser... Darryl Strawberry was another one Funny story... my mother and I were struck in traffic heading back home from UCLA. I think I was around 8 years old at the time... anyways I had just been given a gift of some I believe upper deck cards. (Some sort of Dodger team set) Darryl Strawberry was the card that you can see through the plastic. I remember being really excited and waiting to get home before I opened up the rest of them because I didn't want to damage them while in the car when all of a sudden this red Ferrari or Lamborghini or something pulled up right next to us... and Wouldn't your freaking know it Darryl Strawberry was the passenger I tore into that pack so quick and was hanging out the window yelling at him to sign my card... my mother had no idea what I was doing. She just sees me freaking out and hanging out of the window in Los Angeles Rush Hour gridlock traffic. I really don't remember what the controversy was but this was just after it happened or during but he wasn't in the greatest of moods but when he saw me and how excited I was to see him he straight got out of the car came over signed my card gave me a high 5 and well the rest was history.
    Its been years since I last thought about that moment still makes me smile. No idea what happened to that card but it doesn't matter because I still remember. ( I also remember how it made the miserably hot drive back home to the valley bearable exciting even)

      Obviously none of you have ever haggled. The purpose of these flea markets is to haggle and I myself consider it quite gratifying when I purchase something for the price I want. You all feel bad for the seller but he doesn't care, he is just happy with some sort of money.

      Haggling a buck to 50 cents on a Jack Morris card when you have a garage full of cards is sad. I’d pay the buck. Come on. A haggle is asking 75 for a hundred dollar card.
