My wife let me get this card in an Ebay auction for my birthday.

I got it for $64, which is a bargain in my book, and I thought I would let you all in on it.

While this is not a rookie card, this is from Etopps inaugural baseball edition (2001).  Only 489 of these beauties were produced.  To give you a comparison, 10,000 Ichiro cards were produced that year.  5,000 Albert Pujols (I also happen to own both of those). :)

Current ebay auctions already have the card exceeding $70.  I think it will only go up.

I would recommend getting at least one for your collection.  This is probably Beltran's most limited standard issue out there, and a must for any collection.
