Sports cards aren't the hot commodity anymore. I had rookie cards(before yesterday) and about 10 years ago, they were each worth $40. As of yesterday, they are going for as high as $4/ea. Back in the 80's-early 90's, cards were masses marketed big time. The value has been declining every year. Your average card is only worth a nickel or dime. With so many other "distractions" out there, cards just aren't "it" anymore. Later, QD.
