    My knob is worth way more than that.

    I would never pay that much for knob.

    Someone (lady?) paid that much for a 1/1 knob? How much does a 1/4 bring?

    Game used R 43, does it claim that Mays used it or is it simply an R 43 that was used in a game?

    Good for you.

    It's not the size of the knob but the motion in the ocean that counts

    1/1's hold no interest for me whatsoever. Once I had a 1/1 jersey autograph and thought I had something special only to find found out the exact same card exists many time over with the only difference being the numbering. To me just slapping a 1/1 on a card doesn't make it a 1/1 if the same card exists multiple times.

    The guy who pulled that knob out of the wrapper musta been happy.

    I agree for older players like this because there is a limited supply of game used bats, jerseys, etc. For newer players, i think it is a cool idea to do this with cards because there is much more game used material out there to be used.

    Isn't Keith Olbermann the one buying up all the 1/1 bat knob cards?
