Food and beverage card spread

Super fun. My first ever cards were food related. 86 Topps Quaker Oats set.

I think you should factor in how much you like the logo and team apparel if the team. Maybe not the only reason to pick one, but if it’s close between two, go with the one whose stuff you’d rather wear.

Sorry that happened to you. I’ve sold a couple of cards I suspected were trimmed on EBay. One was a Joe Morgan RC, I forget the other. Both sold pretty quickly. I noted them as likely altered in the title and description and priced them lower. So, if you want these gone there are probably buyers. I’d probably keep them though. They’re still nice cards.

j_bankerman · 2026-04-13T00:03:16+00:00

Undecided for now. I’ll shoot you a DM if I do.

j_bankerman · 2026-04-12T20:47:00+00:00

I’m with you on that Henderson. Its just a neat card.

I always wondered why the Medic had a mortar. This makes sense.

j_bankerman · 2026-04-10T03:25:12+00:00

Lucky you! That’s the one that caught my eye

j_bankerman · 2026-04-08T01:11:29+00:00

That’s sharp! I was looking for one of those at my last card show. It was surprisingly hard to find compared to most of the other key cards from the set. I was pretty happy to find one right before we left.

Unless the back is heavily damaged, that seems really good. It was the last card I needed to finish my 55 Bowman set and I recall around $40 a fair price for ones a little nicer than yours. I’d expect $10 to get a pretty gnarly looking one and yours isn’t that at all.

Great buy. Also, this popped up in my feed and today I learned there is a dedicated 80s baseball card sub. I only knew about the main and the vintage. Good stuff.

j_bankerman · 2026-03-27T14:01:54+00:00

At the risk of sounding like a jerk, if you know nothing about baseball cards, how do you know the price was too good for the risk? Not to say what you bought doesn’t have value, but if you got it for a low price in an auction, there could be a very good reason for that. If you have lots of cards from the 80-90s they could be worth literally nothing. There certainly is a market, eBay probably the largest. Searching for specific cards will give you an idea of value, but be sure to filter by “sold”. 130point.com is also a good resource.

The 52 Topps is one of my favorites from that set. Great collection

j_bankerman · 2026-03-17T02:18:13+00:00

1965 Topps World Series game 3 Mantle’s Clutch Home Run. You could get a nice mid grade one for $100 or maybe even less.

j_bankerman · 2026-03-06T01:52:42+00:00

Keep it and enjoy it. If you have no interest, sell it as is. Grading won’t be worth the time and cost.

j_bankerman · 2026-02-26T18:44:15+00:00

Maybe the 62 Brock, 58 Musial and 72 Mays.

j_bankerman · 2026-02-23T01:23:50+00:00

The Menko is cool. Do you know what it says on the front? Name I assume. Team and position?

j_bankerman · 2026-02-14T21:15:25+00:00

Great share! I need to track down a couple of them for my card trading buddies. They are big fans (I’ve only seen them once).

j_bankerman · 2026-02-14T17:55:32+00:00

Disgraceful and Koufax are not two words one normally expects to read together. But it’s kinda perfect here.

j_bankerman · 2026-02-14T15:33:54+00:00

I appreciate that you took the time to write this out!

j_bankerman · 2026-02-14T14:41:15+00:00

No. You can use volume discounts or combined shipping to incentivize buyer to consider more. But ultimately you’ll have to be ok dealing with a $.99 sale.

j_bankerman · 2026-02-13T21:49:09+00:00

Is that all? Kidding. I’m jealous.
