Comical because it is not worth it? OR comical just in the sense that it is amazing?

I'm sure the guy put a ton of effort into that, so I don't begrudge him for asking a high price.

He shared his effort and passion, to get his last few cards, everyday with us.

I helped Anthony with his Bonds and Robbie Alomar collections over the years. He did do a lot of work on them. I believe he had at least two and maybe three of each of these sets. I believe he already made his profit on sets that he sold a few years ago.

The former.I thought it was obvious if the same cards get listed over and over for the last year with no bids, but I guess not.Unless I am missing something, they are just base, no?

I admire his dedication, but it's going to take one helluva lure to get someone to take that bait.

He is a member and clearly doesn't want to sell then or he would price differently. Plus I think he has two full sets of Bonds.

So he'd rather get stuck with listing fees over and over again?Bonds is so irrelevant he isn't even worth showing off unless you want to move him.

Whatever happened to Wossa?I never see weekly threads about him anymore.

SINFULONE · Jan 14, 2014

Has anyone ever gotten any of their Tek signed?I think those would look awesome if signed, blue ink would really stand out well on that set.

I haven't personally.

I've seen them on eBay and they look like crap IMO but maybe in person their sick.

With all these boxes selling recently, I'm hoping a bunch of new 1998 Tek cards hit eBay, specifically Belle and Belle diffractors
