Abstract
- In truth, we can't be certain that these so-called highest prices are actually the topmost, because there is a healthy market in private sales outside of auctions, team stores, eBay shops, and trading conferences. Goldin's main rival is Chris Ivy, director of sports at Heritage Auctions, which sold the $12.6 million Mickey Mantle card for Giordano. He tells Robb Report that the record price - not just for a baseball card but for any piece of sports memorabilia - couldn't help but remind him of all the Mickey Mantle cards he'd once clipped to bicycle-wheel spokes or traded with friends. Prices have skyrocketed with sale after record-breaking sale, causing many a baby boomer to rue the day their mother threw out their baseball-card collection with the trash.
