Message: [QUOTE="NateW, post: 3418150, member: 4210"] I think that would be a fun thing to do with your son. If he likes sports I’m sure he’ll grow into digging the cards eventually. My brother stayed into it over the years. One element is for the fun of it and the other element is to try and make some money. He actually has made some money off of it over the years. His strategy is to buy up cards of under the radar young players that he thinks have the chance to explode at some point. And then try to move them when they finally do explode. He started collecting Paul Goldschmidt cards strictly because a guy he works with is his cousin. Bought up hundreds of cards for cheap when he was first coming into the pros. Guy ends up being an All Star, gold glove, slugger, haha! I’ve been talking to him about how to, loosely, get back into collecting. He said he doesn’t buy packs anymore because the value isn’t there at all. I said - but that’s the most fun part!! [/QUOTE]
