"Sports, lots of different sports. Now, everybody's into sports cards, so there's baseball cards, football cards, you name the cards, they're there, basketball, hockey. You name it, they all, they're collectible, so they make these books called Becketts, and Becketts, they have different magazines for each type of sports card that you collect, and actually Becketts, is also online, but I like to get it in the periodical form, to see what my cards are worth, and to see who's buying, see which auctions will be taking my cards on consignment, and they also have a phenomenal price guide in the back, so you can really look up all your cards. It's amazing. It's a very comprehensive price guide, and they also have in the back of it, baseball cards, oh, here's another one, Baseball Card Exchange. Ok, this is where you, it's kind of like a swap meet for baseball cards. They have those across the country, where people bring their baseball cards, and they exchange their baseball cards. It's a wonderful way to go. This also talks about different websites that you might want to look at, but in the back, as always, there's a huge classified section, where people, not everybody's into the computers and the internet, so there's a big classified section in the back. There's also auctions, so this is a great one, for your sports collectors, but don't forget they have it in every sport, so buy one for each sport. Beckett's will be very glad."
