QM1to6Ave Posted March 4, 2011 Share #6 Posted March 4, 2011 I read that those blue metrocards end up on ebay every once in a while. I believe I read that they go for around $50.00, in general, but I might be mistaken, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bknightshadow45 Posted March 4, 2011 Share #7 Posted March 4, 2011 I used to collect Metrocards. I think I still have at least one blue Metrocard before it got discontinued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyjay114 Posted March 19, 2011 Share #8 Posted March 19, 2011 I still have my Blue metrocard from HS. I went to Bergtraum HS and in 1995-1996 we were the pilot school for the School Metrocards. They were blue and had our pictures on the back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorgor Posted March 19, 2011 Share #9 Posted March 19, 2011 How did you get all of those metrocards in under a year? Please don't tell me you went around picking them off of the ground... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted March 19, 2011 Share #10 Posted March 19, 2011 lmao! True about that ^. That is a crazy amount of cards. I've been collecting cards that I've used, but don't have anywhere near that many. You have any blue Metrocards? I wonder if those are worth any money. I have one. Dunno, one can always put one up on ebay and see how desperate people are to get it. I'm not selling mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgor Posted March 21, 2011 Share #14 Posted March 21, 2011 What's wrong with that? Well first off they're garbage, which is why they're on the ground in the first place. Second, they're dirty from the disgusting floor and the rats roaming around. And third, bending down to grab a piece of plastic that someone found useless after they used it up and then you're going to put it on display and brag about it?

I do do that with maps... pick up one wherever I see one in reasonable condition. Looks like over the summer I'll be commuting to NYC daily, then I can go to 3 Stone on my way home!

Looks like over the summer I'll be commuting to NYC daily, then I can go to 3 Stone on my way home! What exactly is 3 stone st? people mention it all the time. As for MC collecting, whats wrong with that. I save the ones with the "Fun Facts" and the SBS ones like I do with Snapple caps. There is nothing wrong with collecting but hoarding is a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattTrain Posted March 21, 2011 Share #23 Posted March 21, 2011 Sorry about that, I misunderstood. Anyways you can get bus maps, subway maps, bus/subway timetables and metrocard forms there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted March 21, 2011 Share #24 Posted March 21, 2011 It's his collection. Let him do as he pleases. And that's nothing something called "cleaning" can't fix. Truth. I wouldn't collect every single card, but if it interests me and I don't have it yet, on occasion I will do the same. I pick it up and wrap it in a paper napkin [that i use to hold on to the metal bars on trains and buses]. And when I get home, I just rinse it under water in a sink, dry it up and done. No fuss about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
