Worth less than the paper they are printed on.

I have about 10000 of them, will make usefull fire creation tools at some point.

Last shop I knew of was Al's Card shop in the city, been gone for a few years now.

Best bet is ebay and list shit according to beckett prices.

Yeah as of a few months ago wanneroo markets had a corner shop doing all sorts of cards.

As stated, probly best to just hang on to them for another 50years ha! Or possibly burn them on a cold night.

All cards from that era were a bit to high volume to be worth anything. Though a shaq rookie card may be worth something and more soon, a friend had one in the early 90's and was worth bout $200ish then and were quite rare.

I had a gold Grant Hill rookie card of some sort that at the time was worth around $300 - I thought I struck it rich (being a primary school kid).

I've held onto all my cards of the good players in a folder, the shitty ones are in a box and as mentioned should really be burnt.

Got a few folders with proper plastic sleeves.

Remember all the raging discussions with trades and all the Topps vs Upperdeck etc, all the hype getting a hot pack.

Pretty sure I saw Al's card shop opposite the wellington street bus port.

I only noticed it because I thought business's like that wouldn't be able to survive anymore
