Just getting back into collecting.

[Sanchez-GQ]

I used to collect cards as a kid, but over the last 10 years or so I hadn't even thought much about them, other than going back through my collection every once in a while, when I returned home.


I'm still a massive sports fan though, and just recently I decided I wanted to get back into collecting a little bit, and focus solely on cards of my favorite players (Mark Sanchez, Darrele Revis, Klecko, Chrebet, Maynard, Namath, Wendel Clark, John Olerud, etc etc)


As i've looked around and done some reading, it seems like things have changed an awful lot since the days when I used to collect......and slowly but surely I'm learning bits and pieces regarding patches, swatches, G/U, #ed cards, grading, etc etc........but any and ALL help/advice would be greatly appreciated.



I'm in the market for some Mark Sanchez Autographed Rookie Patches....and any suggestions on prices I should expect to pay.......cards to target.....places to buy them (other than ebay)......etc etc would be an incredible help.




Been lurking the boards now for a few days, and thus far I love the place, and look forward to becoming part of the community.
