Massive Baseball Card Collection Found Behind Wallpaper 

Boise ain’t that big buddy

I kinda just assumed it was the persons she bought the house from lol

I never knew jack black had so many cards

Nice

I wonder why he didn’t just take them ? Or even after she discovered them he came by and he wasn’t interested in taking them home ...

Yes I think it's very sweet to see what a young kid did w/his baseball card collection.💓

I did this as a kid. Parents were always into home renovations so they did not care much if I damaged the walls a bit. We could always repair it easily.

Especially childhood toy and other stuff might be worth lots of buckdo. But later down in the line less valuable if you open it or beat up.

Especially when all of those vintage cards were used to make a bicycle sound like a motorcycle!I think my dad used to do it to his late 50’s and early 60’s cards when he was a kid.

As a baseball card collector, millions upon millions of baseball cards were produced during the 80s and 90s which deprived the value tremendously to begin with unless the card had an error of some sort. I’ve sold thousands of intact 80s and 90s baseball cards for no more than $50. Edit: I’ve sold thousands as a lot not each.

if the card is rare u could still get serious money.. Mickey mantle... babe ruth.. Honus Wagner

Just put up the wall for sale and call it modern art and get millions?

A Honus Wagner card which recently sold for half a million dollars was literally torn in half. Like, half the card was gone. Just sayin.

you gotta love the ppl who think old = valuable lol. thats not how this works.

First rule is rarity. Second, condition. So even if the condition is bad but if the card is super rare itstill could fetch a price. Example is the first issue of action comics.

I would build a bar in that room 🍻

I’d sell sell sell, edit: they aren’t worth anything

Exactly!

@@DylanRomanov what makes a baseball card valuable ?

@@ocvp_tx6951 rare ones

"Yucky green wall"

I was wondering that the whole time! That’s the real story here

Seriously why shingles?

It's 'faux tile wallpaper'. It said so in the realtors ad. She paid extra for it.

The green monster! YaY Fenway!

might as well buy a boat

Seriously! My thoughts exactly

Not only that... in bumphuck Boise Idaho!! 🤦‍♂

@@sonnyk4840 right! Craziness

I was just gonna wait for some old relative to pass away and get there house

Me: crying in poor

Would probably be a $100K home at most in my area. And without needing work.

@@Kay-st8fk no a fixer up home should not be that expensive....

I would have guessed 150,000 tops....it was a rancher also.

I KNOW RIGHT

It can be cheesy who cares.

Beautiful?

You have to balance out both light and dark

@@doppelstrangler4569 yup

godh

I remember I had a bunch and took them to my cousins birthday party and I begged him to let me play his ps2 and he agreed if I gave him all my cards. Ofcourse my stupid self gave it all

@@chato6853 RIP

@@lilyjane570 I want to keep it for a long time

@@chato6853 your cousin is pretty messed up for asking that.

Bro $50 bucks!!!! 🥺 Dam dude mine have been in my binder since ‘99. Don’t know why but at 14 I just had a feeling I needed to hold on to them.

Not sure it's respect? Probably didn't feel like scraping them off...much easier just to cover them, no one will know.

@@mikeblaz she said it she doesn’t have the heart to completely take that off.

at least you didn't GLUE IT

Would be nice if they could get them off and give them back to him

I don’t think he ever wanted them to be worth something though. It was just for memorises. I thought it was nice.

Junk wax

Don’t think it’s about getting money for them ..

I mean yeah he was a kid enjoying it. A lot like all the Super Nintendo boxes we all threw in the trash lol

The wallpaper on that wall would have been more valuable than those baseball cards in perfect condition.

Theyre worthless. You either sell someone a ripped up card or a card with a chunk of wall on the back

@@wayge exactly. What a shame

Last year the house was probably 100k or less but in may the prices skyrocketed.

*Crying in Californian Millennial* you can’t even buy a shed for that price here

You should come to Ireland..it would cost that much just to put up a For Sale sign...

Like the cards, it's worth what you'll pay for it.

Yeah, Boise must be on fire. Who knew?

Omg I sound like my father lol oops.

That's a bargain for Californians. The house isn't in that bad of shape.

Boise has been a hot market for a couple of years now. Tons of Californians moving there

lmao true but also that comparison was really stupid

Congrats

@@thatguy720 thanks

yes

Yep

1,600 worthless cards

Definitely worth keeping. The time it took to glue 1600 cards individually expresses the life and energy left from a kid (now adult) who once occupied that space.

That's horrible!!

@@MysticDesertBreeze He has a big collection now but not what he would have had.

Omg he leaves for a dangerous, deadly war, risking his life and his own mother throws his stuff away?? My gosh how heartless! If that was my son, I would treasure every little item of his, fearing that he would never return home to me and it least I would have his precious belongings, that would be priceless to me! Poor guy! I know how bad that has to eat away at him!

@@mjarboesdf Thank you for your very kind words I feel the same.

@@mjarboesdf - many a kid has had their baseball cards tossed out when they leave home, etc. not that uncommon way back when, before cards started becoming valuable.

It is stupid.😁

@@rickhammond2473 Yeah, they’re worth literally nothing to begin with.

Yeah, that surprised me too

Economy is tanking And remember, the US is a 3rd world country in a faux Gucci belt

A fixer upper in IDAHO

she got ripped off lmaooo

California

Idaho. Watch the video.

Bosie, Idaho

Californian here, that's a bargain of a home.

I know right. You can get a beautiful home here in Texas for that much

@@vitohov8824 u sell ur rights too i guess … texas🤮

bruh that is a waste of money man

@@omnipotence731 The housing bubble will pop just like it did in 2008.

The housing market is nuts right now

@@dantegood2195 With Covid houses should be cheaper because no one wants to buy any houses

@@WigWoo1 - lol. That flies in the face of demand, which is the driver of home prices

@@RestlessRiver I was thinking the same, not even a studio anymore 😬🤔

@@RestlessRiver 2018

What area?

Hahahahaha

And house is pretty small too.

@Infinite Jest Exactly I definitely agree with you 😱🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️and I'm like why though????Jiminy Crickets that's insane!

yeahhh no one asked.. thanks for your input anyways

@@dmullz100 Thanks for the positivity.👏 Another thing you didn't ask for..I'm probably one of the only millennial females with a baseball collection laying around somewhere.

@@dmullz100 I did, actually. I'm glad he answered.

Their value is all determined 1) by what the card is, basically it's rarity and 2) it's condition. Absolutely perfect as the day it was made is worth the most. So never actually played with, just unpacked and carefully put into a collection folder is where the value is. That's what makes them so rare. 99.999% of them were bought for kids to play with. Even sunlight damages them not to mention moisture in the air, handling them etc. It's like any collectable, people want to own it in the newest condition possible. The glue on the back renders them worthless. It's only value now is as a cool looking wall though I'd say that wall is fairly easily reproduced so no monetary value. It also can't be sold so literally no monetary value.

So either an eccentric collector buys a house in Idaho for a wall of 1980's mass produced cards glued to a wall in a room of said house..or...what she has the wall removed and shipped? ... 8m.not sure how the concept is exicuted

If anyone wants a wall like that, I have boxes upon boxes of "decorations" in my basement for sale. I might even be generous enough to throw in some glue sticks. You're on your own regarding labor.

right. 364K, i would expect a nice place already fixed. seems like a bubble again.

Watch the video Glue ruined the cards . Also it's cheap cards .

They're worthless anyway

That part 😂

Umm, no. You couldn't give those cards away, much less sell them.

Not even

Have you even SEEN housing prices today?! Probably get a hole in the ground for 110k

@@alisonm2558 yep, that's today's market in my state for a house like that around $110k, in fact likely even cheaper.

You clearly didn't finish the video

Except it's nothing museum worthy. For less than $25, you could make one just like it.
