Found a moment to do a little scanning, so I thought I would share one of my favorite projects.

Does anyone have any "stars" that they want to sell? I would LOVE the griffey more than anything, but want even minor stars. Even if not for sale, and if you have one, I would love to see it....

Thanks, and thanks for the compliments earlier..I really am only going after stars, and henpecked the stores (many from ugh burbank)...I noticed you liked the rookies...I also have burrell and pena which I have around here somewhere.

oh, i would add the eckstein, but last one sold for like $70...i don't think i would go more than $30-35 for him.

Just don't outbid me the next time a Hudson comes up on ebay :oops: - the only RC of his that I need

I wonder who's been looking longer?
Do you have his victory parallels?

Thanks for trying on the checkoutmycards...none of those quite make it to my classification of star though...I usually only collect hof, but stretching it to "some" popular stars.

edit to add - i know burbank or some other crazy seller has one, but he was asking an astronomical amount, but you may be willing to pay if it completes your set...

I knew they weren't big time player's but hey - they're sweet looking cards for $2... if you ever decide to go for the set they would be easy pickups

In the past 2 years theres only been 1 int'l ref up on ebay - went for $35... so I won't be paying Burbank's price of $100 and something, especially when I picked up his gold ref for around the same price

I have all the victory parallels (minus the 1/1), the other bowman/bowman chrome parallels and all of the Omega's. Finding the int'l ref would be nice, but I won't touch burbank's.

Good luck finding some to add to the collection - I'll keep an eye open for any that cross my path

I still am a bit partial to these....

I used to have a Crawford International Ref BGS 9, but I sold it for $100 a little over a month ago.
someone had one for $75obo, and he took my $60dlvd off ebay...should be on it's way..

I must admit, of all the international, the alamo is my least favorite...color is kind of blah...too bad dunn is from texas too...

The one I posted the Gold Refractor /25

I sold the rest of my Crawford stuff - Ref, Intl Ref, TT Auto, etc.

Yea, it may be a battle to see who wants the hudson more :lol:
We both know that we aren't willing to pay near burbanks price...well 99 more of them out there...

I know gold ref is more rare, but i don't put much value of them over regular ref...I also don't go nuts over orange or red borders...i am wierd in a lot of ways :mrgreen:

I have the most common of the victory parallels and is badly oc...wouldn't mind the /100 version, but haven't seen one :D

I have a Walker incoming. I've never seen one in hand but the scans sure do look awesome. Can't wait to get it.

Scans don't even do the cards justice...in hand, you will F L I P ---
