The 1998 Topps Tek Thread

He had four Lankford cards, all were doubles, and I paid $6 dlvd

That's nice. I am really really really trying hard not to pull the trigger on starting another chace for a 90 card set of Belle... I have like a dozen doubles, this guy has 2, rinkrat has a handful, etc. but I really don't want to do it... sounds good because you can quickly get to like 50 or 60 of the 90 but then it slows wayyyyyyyyyyyy down. I will just be happy to cross my final base pattern off the checklist. I have a few diffractors coming in I hope from a Belle collector liquidating his collection and I'm getting first pass.

I have at least a hundred doubles and maybe like 1/2 way to set number 2, so no real thought of going for it.

Congrats on the Brady Anderson pattern #80 !

Thanks. I guess at this rate I'll be done in 4 years!

Thanks. I guess at this rate I'll be done in 4 years!

LOL, man I hope not. That would mean I'd be finished in 12 years.:benson: You just need patterns 39, 54, 62, and 83 right? I'll keep an eye out for those cards.

Do any of you guys have that Tek sellers number or email address? I want to see if he has any Thome cards. Thanks.

[MansGame]

Thanks George

 

[RustyGreerFan]

Thanks George

I emailed him Friday and haven't heard back.

 

[u2me57]

I emailed him Friday and haven't heard back.

He emailed me back today and said he didn't have any Thome's left.

 

[MansGame]

He emailed me back today and said he didn't have any Thome's left.

Could you ask him if he has Belle for me?

 

[u2me57]

Could you ask him if he has Belle for me?

Yes, I just emailed him about the Belle's. I should here back from him by tomorrow. When he emailed me back earlier he said they were all gone, but I think he was just talking about the Thome's.

 

[u2me57]

He's quick. He only has Ripken, Maddux, and Juan G. left.

 

[RustyGreerFan]

Yeah, I was pretty surprised when he told me Buhner was sold out. I think someone must have bought a bulk lot of commons and semistars?

 

[togaman]

So looks like the newest Griffey Diffractor just listed may zoom past $100? Insanity...

 

[u2me57]

....yeah, especially if bidder y***r keeps up his bidding pace.
