Of course, if anyone is going to understand your obsession, it will be nosterbor.

I will admit that obsessions like this, which drive the prices higher, was one of the factors of my bailing out of collecting Juan.

now is the best time to collect Juan Gonzalez cards! i remember when the 2003 leaf limited came out all the numbered to 25 and less cards. the moniker autograph #to 25 were in the $60+ range aircorp was paying $200+ for the moniker #to 5's.that was 4 short years ago. so the prices lately are a bonanza to me! i will take all i can get my hands on.the supply is about out!

It is sad to hear that Freddie. I collect some other things, and also belong to various collecting societies worldwide and it is common to see people paying things "overprize" the price guides are just that a guide, the real value depends on how bad the collector want certain Item, like the Wyat Earp pistol set story, some people will pay thousands, other millions for it, for my wife not even one cent!

Sorry I wait this long to let you know, but when I mentioned this, I really have only four of them, the other was on ebay, but of course I do what it takes to assure it will make it home. Finally I get it yesterday, now I have all of them in hand and listed them on my collection. #52 2004 Prime Cuts II Timeline Material Trio Stats
