Finally got my 3,000 different McGwire card in the mail today!! After hitting this milestone, im thinking I might take it easy for a while, because there is still a huge market for McGwire's, and it's not cheap!

I currently have 3,010 different McGwire cards. Included in this are 439 different Serial Numbered cards, 123 different Refractors, and 45 different game-used cards.

These are some of the recent pickups:

Wow, congrats! Huge accomplishment!

I won't "slow down" until I get 90% of Albert Belle's cards outstanding... Which will probably be never... So let the games continue!!

YOU sir, owe me a washing of trousers. I remember how tough and how many variations of the Luminaries were in the Topps Stars football, when I was going after Ryan Leaf, so I congratulate you !

Very nice milestone... but as mentioned, you're not slowing down because it's a disease.

Just curious, how many cards does McGwire have out there? Has to be a lot. Belle doesn't even have 3,000 cards lol. That's such a HUGE accomplishment. Congrats again.

Congrats! I remember 3000. It was a little depressing knowing I wasn't even halfway done.

Thanks guys, I appreciate it. I am very proud of my collection, but I know Bane it is very depressing knowing I barely have half. And I also know how hard it is gonna be to slow down because it so addicting and a "disease" haha :D..but I still enjoy every minute of it

Thanks Astroburn, and yes I do know which one it was, it was the 1997 Pinnacle Xpress Swing for the Fence Gold (apparently limited to 500). Not a super rare one, but one I have been looking for for a while.
