Hello every one. I guess you can say I got back into collecting after quiting in 91 because I could not keep up with all the garbage that the card companies were putting out. Always loved vintage and a started collecting old Mantles. Then got into other older star players. I have a Mattingly collection of the late 80's and early 90's. I recently walked in to the local shop and got hooked buying 2012 Tops Baseball trying to get the SP's. Found out the hard way that it was impossible unless you boufgt cases upon hobby cases. Bought some other stuff including four boxes of 2011 BowmAN Sterling. Then concentrated on the 2012 Tribute. That was expensive but fun. Now am waiting for Museum Collection. Hopefully I dont go nuts like I did with Tribute.
