I've been collecting ARod for 16 years now and just saw the first one today. I bought it. I didn't even know if there was one of him or not in the set. There was discussion about these variations a while back. Whoever was leading the conversation had a Griffey and was inquiring about them as well. I don't recall what was ever established.

I just looked back in this thread and I didn't see where anything was established...

The same seller posted another one if anyone is interested.

I thought your username was familiar - are you still chasing Dilfer cards? I think you and the Mark Brunell collector have the most amazing football player collections I've ever seen.

Thanks for the compliment on my collection. I don't know if anybody's football collection comes near Jaderock's Brunell collection, though, that thing is unbelievable. I really do need to scan my whole collection someday but that'll take forever. I am definitely still chasing Dilfer cards, I just don't often see any pop up that I need. There is another guy who looks like he doesn't collect anymore and has most of the 1/1's locked up in his collection.

Got this Roberto Alomar in and it was what I was hoping it was - a 1998 Donruss Collections Preferred Prized Collections /55. Not bad for $5, but now I'm thinking I could have had it for 99 cents if I had bid on the auction instead of hitting the BIN.

Also got in this great lot for just $20! I had seen these cards on Sportsbuy from Brickman for probably two years. But he listed them so oddly - calling Fractal Matrix Fractal Foundations and saying that the print run on Die Cuts was 3250 instead of 200.

1998 Elite Status /100

Picked up a pretty ridiculous collection last week. I will break it into a couple posts. Not sure if anything is for sale right now. I went half with a buddy of mine and he wants to just throw everything on ebay. So that might be where you can find it all. So without further adieu, let's begin:

1996 Ultra

Hey guys - instead of trying to resell my box of 1998 Topps Tek to make some bucks, I have just asked FCB for permission to do a group box break. For more info check out my Topps Tek thread. I got the box for $120 and am sharing the value.

Those are the harder to find versions that have the "hanging chads," or the helmets and hat brims. It appears Fleer did away with them, for a more sleek design because of production or condition sensitivity.

Any idea on how I would list these? Would collectors know them by "hanging chad"? Would they be promos or samples since they weren't packed out I assume? Thanks for the help.


Also found these in the lot. Thought they were pretty cool:

I would say something like:
Ultra rare! L@@K! Ebay 1/1! Only one on Ebay! Super Short Print! Executives Only! Limited! HOT! MOJO!!

Super sweet find on all of these jbrown. You got everything else from 96 Ultra so I have to ask if you have any Thunderclap Gold Medallions.

Sorry I do not. I think the only gold meds he didn't have were the thunderclap and hitting machines.
