I just absolutley, for whatever forsaken reason LOVE the 1989 Pro Set Football. I don't know what it was and is about that set....It might be that was the year that I got back into collecting while I was in college. I bought from 1981-1984 Topps and Donruss baseball for gum, puzzles and to just keep me busy growing up in a small town. I remember the local TG&Y dumping 1986 Fleer Basketball where I grew up! Didn't like it....DOH! DOH! DOH!
So anyway- what other cheap "bad" sets does everyone else like?

I also remember when I was doing card showing in 1994 a dealer needed some cash to buy a collection he had been offered. He offered me the 5 boxes of Magic the Gathering cards he had at the time for $200 It was 3 Beta boxes and 2 Arabian Knights boxes. Today the Beta boxes are impossible to find and bring from 10 to 15,000 each. The Arabian Knights bring from 8 to 12,000 each. I want to cry everytime I look at that one.
I also remember being offered a lot of 500 donruss Mark McGwire rookies for $25.00 in very early 1987. I kick myself on that one too.
Anyway getting back to the 1989 Pro-Set, I remember buying them and laughing at the Score product, everyone at that time seemed to think that Score was a waste of money. I do still like the Pro-set and it is a great set with the Aikman and Sanders rookies in it. A box of it can be had for less than 10 dollars makes for some fun pack busting.
Yes PSA has been grading these cards a while, but it has not caught on great just yet. The popularity is rising in grading these cards though.
