Also, it's only really worth it for the big name cards. No since in sending in a Joe Blow if it's not going to increase the value. You could always start with a few and then use that money for the others.
Yeah, if I got serious about it that would be the way to do it. Especially since I've got doubles and triples of some cards. I've got three of Andre Dawson's rookie cards and got him to sign one when he was with the Marlins in the mid-90s and I was a season ticket holder at the time.
It would be a fun little hobby, but it's not worth it for me to spend the time at the moment, plus they will probably still go up a bit, so when I'm finally ready in 10-15 or so years they'll be worth a little more.

I've got about 12,000 baseball cards in my parents garage. Albums, plastic boxes, soft plastic sleeves, hard plastic, complete sets, unopened boxes of packs, etc.
Only problem is I started collecting as a little kid in 1987. All those cards I collected from '87- mid 90s are essentially worthless. I've got some random common cards I traded for as a kid from the 60s, 70s, and early 80s. Out of all those cards, only a hand full are worth a damn and they aren't mint. Stuff like Henderson and ripkin rookies, but still nothing worth fooling with. Might could get 1k for all of them which isn't even worth the days or weeks it would take to go through and try to sell them.
