A great example of how people value things differently as well. I may have gotten some of those 80 Topps at the time and if I had, I would have felt ripped off. Those were printing errors - junk! I felt the same about miscuts, diamond cuts and those cards with the little raised spots that had little rubber band bits under the paper (you know what I mean if you collected in the 70s/80...I used to get those all the time!).
I would have no interest in something like that now and if I did find one, I would probably try to sell it and get it into the hands of someone who does value it more than I.
As an example of me favoring something most people wouldn't: I have been buying and/or trading for cheap autographs for a couple years now, players who are either pictured as Dodgers or guys who played for the Dodgers at some point, but were featured with a different team. Many of these players would be nothing more than $1-2 commons in most people's book, but to me they make up a collection of Dodger autographs. They hold more value to me as part of a greater project, but I wonder down the road what I will think of all my Terry Tiffee, Troy Brohawn, Blake Hawksworth, Matt Treanor, Derek Thompson and other non-Dodger card autos that have a "BV" of pennies.
In the end, I'd rather have Dodger cards, but many of these players don't have Dodger cards, so I got the next best thing...certified autos from other teams.
