When I was in gradeschool, it was very popular to trade sports cards. Although I had hundreds of baseball cards, My particular class didn’t do very much baseball. Almost all those guys were trading basketball cards. I didn’t know much about who was who but did eventually collect cards including a Michael Jordan card. The guys in my class convinced me to trade it for three other cards, including a slightly chewed Shaq card.
The value of the trade was only as good as my information.
