I checked out the Reserve Collections to see what all I missed out on. It's remarkable how many of the scores on COMC are made by FCB members. The only significant miss was on a Will Clark, and that went to a board member.

So in 4 or 5 years (however long COMC has been around) here is the list of Reserve Collection that has shown up on their site from a 221-card set - just 29 total cards:

Norm Charlton
Ariel Prieto
Jeff Kent
Mark Whiten
Moises Alou (thanks for the deal athletics07)
Allen Watson
Darren Lewis
Jeff Fassero x2
Eddie Murray
Jason Bates
Deion
Pat Kelly
Tony Womack
Scott Rolen
Todd Walker
Jose Guillen
Bobby Abreu
Deivi Cruz
Manny GY
Caminiti GY
Dean Palmer GY
Glavine RF
Kevin Brown RF
Will Clark TG
Molitor TG (hate I missed this one)
Jeter TG
Frank Thomas CL
Hideki Irabu

It's good to see I have not missed out.

Sorry if this has already been discussed, but has anyone else died a thousand deaths reviewing the SOLD OUT listings now available on COMC? Fortunately, not too many bad burns for me, but you can see all those Executive Proof Crusades so that you can know if your guy(s) were available or not.

How about 134 1998 Tek Diffractors!?!?!? Holy crap, when were all these on there?

This is a neat new feature, I checked out the sold out Troy Glaus and saw about 250-300 cards that I bought. Ah, memories!

Woah, just saw this one:

I check for this one all the time, just in case someone has it and doesn't know how rare it is. Bet someone got a deal on that.

Ugh, finally got around to scanning a pile of cards...feel like i have a weight off my back!

got this 1998 Leaf Z-2 Plastic /20, goes nicely with the Wood /20. Finally have the two hardest Piazza cards to find in this set. Thank goodness for no 1/1's.

Love the Curtain Calls subset. Ol' Mike looks like a speed demon in that card on the right :p

That Clark was a redemption, and apparently not many were redeemed. I believe they sell for several hundred bucks when they turn up, which isn't very often.

Curious - were they numbered? Did they have a rainbow foil version too of Clark? I'm assuming these were redemptions in 2001 Donruss. Grace wasn't a redemption, plain foil numbered to /1988 and rainbow foil to /88.

Found a "flat foil" 1996 Topps Laser card this weekend. Most cards have the "pinwheel foil" around the player's name. Love finding a new 90's item for a buck!
