I think Onion is talking about Donruss Collections (the actual topic of this thread <g>)

And hey Onion - which ones are you missing?

Lance ;-D

So there was an actual set of these things made and distributed?Never heard of them before.

<nodding> It had limited distribution. I have both the 'promo' version and the production version - which are, for all intents and purposes, identical. The only difference being the overprinted words "Promotional Sample".

Have no idea who actually carried the product, but it did go beyond the promo stage.

I really like these cards. I think they are underrated.

I just picked this up and it is now one of my favourite cards.

I love these cards. I have the Prized #726 Derek Jeter and the two Samples #100 and #165 . These are pics before they graded BGS 9.5. They are quite stunning to look at. I need the Jeter #559 if anyone has one they want to part with.

I sold my Griffey and it only got $225! Usually /50 ish Griffey will command $300-$500. I have a double though so I'll keep one incase people realize they are actually hard to find( tho I've found 3)

I like these, especially the Preferred versions. I think I opened a couple packs back in the day, and the Prized copies were even more refractory than Chrome refractors in sunlight. I always thought it was an odd product to be paralleling 4 other products, none of which really set the world on fire, but I also thought that scarcity would win out in the end. $225 for a 1998 card isn't too bad, though obviously a different brand might sell for more.

That's a pretty broad statement. I know that low in the Griffey/ Jeter end of cards when you start getting into rarer stuff.

Looking at ebay, with the exception of a Select prototype, yours is the highest priced 1998 card currently showing in completed items that is not actually serial numbered. I know that it has a stated print run of 55, but the actual number means a lot. Could it have gone for more? Sure. But given the variability of ebay, it seems in line.

Cards from 98 can reach a lot higher levels than what's on eBay. I do most of my deals for higher end cards off eBay personally.
