The 1998 Topps Tek Thread

Interesting - I was considering doing a second set, as I'm starting to amass some doubles. Good luck on the last three Belles.

If they stopped putting Belle in new releases, I'd consider another Tek set but until then there isn't time, money or energy to do that.

Yeah, that is weird about pattern #81 , I still need it. Surely the regular Teks were evenly printed. I might do another Thome set, but it depends how many doubles I get while trying to finish the 1st set. My Thome doubles have helped me get some Thomes I needed for set 1. I'm assuming a 2nd set would take longer to finish than the 1st set, but hard to say. Congrats Mansgame on getting down to 3 Belle's. Which one did you get so I can scratch it off my watch list?

I got pattern 81 of Albert Belle this week to only leave three more patterns to chase. Crazy. Seems like I get one pattern like every six months or more.

$40 snipe didn't win a Grace Diffractor last night (ended at $41.01). Damn. I'd consider selling all of mine at that price.

 

[RustyGreerFan]

The Buhner Diffractor was one I already had, but it still scares me how much it went for. Something like $36.

 

[MansGame]

It is insane what some of these are priced at.

That said, I looked in completed listings and saw someone won a Belle diffractor for a thing a $10 BIN a week ago. Who got it?!

 

[RustyGreerFan]

I hoped that was you!

 

[MansGame]

I hoped that was you!

No... it wasn't and it proved AGAIN why I should not be looking through completed listings. It is amazing how a card like that can slip away with how often I check eBay and even with the app plus notifications turned on! Haha... figured someone on here got it grrrrr

Any Thome Teks out there

 

[brian26]

One more Ventura came in....down to needing 16. The journey is more fun than the destination

 

[u2me57]

Congrats on the Ventura. You are right about the journey. And once we reach our destination, it's time to start another journey.

Just started my '98 and '99 Bernie Teks. I can't believe I am going to start this. I will get you a list of haves soon. Maybe we can help each other.
