What are they worth? I just went to an auction and found them, I have 10 packs of unopened Series 3 SpaceShots. Please tell me what they are worth!

Very little, I'm sorry to say (as I genuinely enjoyed collecting them when they were new). Factory sealed sets of all 110 SpaceShots Series 3 cards, for example, have sold on eBay for less than $2.

I found the packs fun to open just like Topps baseball cards in the 1950s when I was a kid. I have had several astronauts autograph "their card."

I have "recycled" many of my extras to One Giant Leap Foundation, which distributes them to school kids at events OGL participates or sponsors.

Yes, unless you have an uncut 'press sheet' of the Series 1 set (which seems to be the more valuable one of the three sets) or autographed cards, the unopened are worth .50 cents or a dollar.

Now for REALLY valuable unopened space-themed trading cards, there is one for the 1969 Topps Man on the Moon series on ebay right now-for $39.99!
