I guess Wal-Mart is now tapping into the memorabilia industry. Let's see if they are able to roll back prices on Jeter & Arod auto's.

Checked out the site too. The prices are retail as they say, but the had mounted memories COAs which is good. $97 for a Duke Snider signed photo, which is up there.

I saw sportscard wax boxes once at the Seattle Costca, but have seen nothing close since.

Actually, 13 years ago the local SAM's in WI, which always sold card boxes, had in the 1996 Leaf Signature Series (Hot stuff at the time with 1+ autograph per pack). Some guy asked if he could buy a case or cases, and SAM's brought out the fork lift. As they say, it doesn't hurt to ask.

I remember Sam's Club selling UDA stuff during the mid 1990's. Back then I was in high school and had money. I think they were sellings some of those Williams and Mantle balls for like 300 bucks. Wish I would have bought some of that stuff.

ya 300 for a Mantle ball doesnt sound too bad right about now
