. (delete - False alarm)
Edit: Sorry for the false alarm folks. Digging past the news reports ... (which referred to "precious metals") and looking at the actual ordinance, this applies to jewelry only. Coins & bullion are specifically exempted. (Darn reporters! ) Nothing to see here. Move right along ... -
Re: 1985 Topps Baseball Wax box question.
__A 1985 Topps Baseball 36-count wax box, even if housed inside a 1981 Topps display box, is generally worth between $500 and $800, with certified, sealed, and, if applicable, "Factory Authorized" (FASC) boxes reaching the higher end of that range.

Downright Photo Dishonesty
While we all know that eBay has a policy against "heavily edited photos", it seems that enforcement of this rule is severely lacking.

Re: Was Steve Young A LOT better then Troy Aikmann
Absolutely false. Kruczek played out of his mind that year. If he had a 39 and 17 QB rating like he did the two years after 1976 when he had a 75 QB rating then the Steelers are not 6-0 with him at QB in 1976.

Report from the front lines today
I’ve been running to the shops the past couple weeks to sell, buy, and just for entertainment. The goal today was to see what the drop in price did to the retail side and maybe buy a little. I envisioned it being slow for them. I thought no one wouid be selling and also maybe buyers didn’t want to catch a falling knife.… -
Re: 2025 NFL Offseason/Draft Thread
I’d say that while starting for OSU he's probably faced off against some elite collegiate defenses, including his own everyday in practice. If he's getting ranked in the top 100 heading into the draft then those evaluators think highly of him but like you stated above, it really comes down to if/where he gets the…
