My dad has boxes and boxes of cards from back when we collected. He sold them in a store and they were literally stacked to the celing at one point.

I'm pretty sure the market has tanked. I remember our Nolan Ryan /Jerry Koosman rookie was worth upwards of $2k once. I doubt its a few hundred now, if that. Sucks because my dads collection was pretty good. Lots of old Yankees rookie cards in mint condition

Yeah that sucks so bad and I was kind of aware of what a nosedive the market took. I do have a lot of HOF'ers rookie cards that were rookies between like 1975 to 85 or so, in all sports. Those were kind of my bread and butter, but like you said, the Nolan Ryan rookie and knowing how much less the Michael Jordan is worth today vs 20 years ago is depressing.

Clearly these are worth way more to me in terms of memories and nostalgia than I could ever sale them for.
