    Why do I collect PSA graded cards??


    I had seen graded cards for years and thought who would want to collect a card encased in plastic, makes no sense. But then one day I stumbled across this site and found these forums where everyone had a passion for collecting cards, all sports, all years. I decided to read posts from the different forums for a while before deciding to join. Started to understand about the set registery and what that was all about. I was able to learn different things about different sets and issues that can occur with those sets. Started buying some PSA graded cards from different years to see if I would like to really collect graded cards?? Now I have been on here for over three years, I feel that most of us get along, can call each other "friend" and have good information to pass along to other forum members. JMHO!!

    A. Because he can lift a car above his head with one hand and he has sired more children than Sean Kemp and Steve Garvey.....combined!


    Stown you may have to dig deep into the ol' memory bank (or go way back into the archived threads) for the context of at least part of my answer. It was a thread involving you and Lee (ampng others). Bonus points for my memory.

  • Q: What is so great about collecting sports cards/ memorabilia?

    A: because it lets us relive part of our youth and remember better and happier times when we were young and did not have any worries or stress because we were protected by our parents and our youth, plus it gives us something to pass on to our children/grandchildren and also lets us connect with other people across the world and share our experiences. This is what is so great about collecting sports cards and memorabilia! ( I remember watching the World Series on Black and White TV while the Amazing Mets won the 1969 World Series) Great Times Great Baseball OH and how we all long for those youthful innocent times ! image
