So I went to the shop and the guy running it just bought a collection that included a bunch of junk wax. Started looking though it and negotiated a price for a few boxes.

Ah, I like seeing these breaks from way back when.I just bought some junk wax from BBC Exchange myself.Couldn't those bronze and silver Extreme cards be exchanged for a different parallel if the player won an award or something back then?I think I have some of those.I always thought that was a really cool idea when UD came out witht those Predictor inserts back then that could be exchanged for a rarer parallel if the player on the card won MVP, led the league in home runs, RBI, etc.How rare is the Ripkin Artist's Proof?

A_Pharis - I love the design of the 90s parallels and inserts, and I wasn't upset at all about getting Ripkens from both boxes.

SINFULONE - Yeah, it was a big math equation to see if your player one. Neither of these guys won anything, but I was only suppose to receive one based on the pack odds. The Artist Proofs were something like 1:32 packs, but for some reason Beckett doesn't price them.

55_marlins_sp - Thanks
