Well, I think I've decided to start with the 98 base for wood and grace. Let's see how this goes.

Good luck! Start with COMC and Sportlots.
Those were the first two placed I checked. Sportlots doesn't list patterns. How do you manage through that?
Very nice. I like that 90 is evenly divisible by both 6 and 9. That way, if I do decide to venture into this craziness, I can put them in binders.
I like 34 and 90.
I'm about to purchase 6 different Vlad 98 Diffractors for $90. Seems like a pretty fair price.

Put this under the True Confessions category.
I should know better than to bid on eBay some time around midnight after a Bruins playoff game and a couple (a few) frosties. Saw a listing for 4 unopened packs of '98 Teks. Put in a modest bid. Figured I might get one diffractor out of four packs. Won the auction for $8.50 (+ $2.50 shipping). Sounded okay. Would have been the equivalent of getting a box for under $60.00 which would have been a bargain. Came in the mail yesterday. Just one pack! Started to steam and mutter to myself about a rip-off. Went back, took a look at the listing, and it was very clearly for one four-card pack. Same fellow has the same listing for '99 and '00 Teks. I mentally apologized to him and went ahead and opened my $11.00 '98 Tek pack.
Guess the same powers that be that were looking out for the Bruins in overtime were watching over my shoulder. Picked up a Helton diffractor, a new one for me, my 30th Helton pattern. Also base cards of Jeter, Bonds, and Delgado. $15.25 high Beckett BV just for the three base cards. So today I picked up a couple of Powerball tickets just in case I'm on a burn.
Ultra makes a very nice 90 card binder with 1 ten sheets. All 90 of my completed 98 TEK sets are in them boxed away in 4 or 5 Magazine boxes, Actually it closer to 110 sets since I have several completed (and few partial) separate pattern# 1 sets and Same card/#pattern# ..Card #/ Player Uniform # set ..separate from Master set plus additional sets of Astros Biggio, Bagwell, Moises Alou, D Bell and 5 diffractor sets (only one 90 card diffractor set completed )
That binder sounds perfect. Thanks!
Let me know if you find one like he described. I never could, but I only searched ebay and amazon.

I just ordered two of these. I'm assuming this it.
