If you aren’t familiar with YouTube user “allenmp” apparently they are a few guys in the Philippines that open numerous  amounts of high priced products. Earlier this year they opened over 50 cases of Upper Deck Exquisite Basketball 2008-2009. So it’s good to know that all those great cards that most of us are chasing are probably sitting over in the Philippines. Check out the video, it’s pretty good and by the way Upper Deck said they will replace the empty box.

Check out Sports Collectors Daily’s Favre Rookie Card Resurgence.

JoeThere are plenty of scandals for baseball through the years but today is the day, October 1st, 90 years ago that one of the darkest days in baseball officially began. The throwing of the 1919 World Series by the Chicago White Sox, which lead to eight players  being banned from the game for life. Chris Olds of Beckett takes a look at why we don’t see many cards of “The Black Sox” and why that might all change. Check out the story here.
