So you think your collection is worthless because your favorite player is in the Mitchell report? Relax! That's my advice.
I'm a Tejada collector and I'm not the least bit worried that my uniforms, bats, cleats and signed baseballs have taken a value-hit. Same for my Sosa jersey and Clemens-signed bat. That's because I collect based on personality rather than performance. And I don't spend a lot of time thinking about the perceived market value of my stuff.
I have yet to meet the collector who is financially better off for "investment collecting" anyway.
In short, I love my collection, steroid stained or not. But then, I'd also be tempted by swampland in Brazil.
