Even with Beckett clearly the leader in the monthly hobby price guide, I found that Tuff Stuff simply has "MORE." More articles, more insider info, more items reviewed, etc. They just simply aren't as up to date with the pricing as Beckett is, but hey, who cares?
A card is only worth as much as somebody else is willing to pay for it. And NOBODY pays "book value" for anything. Sometimes it's more if a player is hot (Chipper Jones close to .400 BA) or has just died (Sorry??). Sometimes it's less if they are in a slump (Barry Zito?) or are being blasted for steroids (Barry Bonds?).
I haven't had a subscription to TS in a few years but have picked up the occasional mag on the newsstand. At for the year though, I had to jump on it.
