So I was feeling nostalgic and bought a couple boxes of 1997 Collector's Choice. I was looking to hit the lottery, and I did. As a Griffey collector, this is the best pull of my life. 1997 Upper Deck Collector's Choice You Crash the Game INSTANT WIN Griffey. For those of you that don't know about this card, you may want to look it up. View attachment 28684
I think that's a fair price to start the negotiation. Congrats again!
I don't have any 1997s in my collection, but three 1998s (Andruw and Buhner x2). There's just something special about Choice inserts because of how they were distributed. It will never really be that way again.
Can someone post a link to the Griffey Instant Winner auction? I'm not sure if it ended or not.
That looks like the rare quad-folded Ken Griffey Sr. throwback rookie error with a picture of Junior. Note the 4 fold marks and the "Jr." left off the name.

Thanks Blane. Yeah, I've never seen one before, and I have searched ebay for Griffey on a daily basis for the past 5-6 years. I wonder how many of these still exist. Any chance you would trade or sell the 98? I really only collect Upper Deck products from the 90's, but I have a lot of other nice cards from that era from other brands.
