I remember from beckett that the non-glossy limited exposure was 25% of the print run. Not sure how many of the limited exposure were made for the counterparts but the nonglossy is definitly more rare.

The surface seems very similar to the 2011 Topps Marquee Signatures, so I think it should hold up fine. I think they really look great and love the gold frame like the topps museum framed autos.
Yeah I saw the astros parade card. Biggio looks like hes trying to be an executive in baseball while bagwell looks like he hangs out at a biker bar. Ended up buying it off ebay, was cheaper than buying it directly from Topps.
New pickups I got around to scanning:
1995 Pinnacle CL AP Holofoil
This is the 3rd one of these I've picked up, that may be all thats out there
1999 Upper Deck textbook Excellence Home Run 4/10
This was a poorly listed auction, got it for under $5 with shipping
2004 Flair Hot Numbers Gold...
I will be there. Already took the week of vacation. Will likely be staying with a college friend who lives in the area and came with me foe one day when it was there 3 years ago

Picked this up a while back, finally got around to scanning
2005 national Pastime buyback /6
There is no stamp that I can see, but the numbering looks similar to one I pulled way back and others I've seen
Also like the patch on these cards that are usually just a plain jersey
Thanks. Everything on it is super crisp. Was nervous it might have been in less than great condition or shipped in a PWE in just a penny sleeve given the way it was listed

I think the quadruple is an error and is /10 not /1 for this set. Multiple other people have posted theirs in here as well.
I think it depended on the insert set what the quadruple was #'d to.

I do subscribe to the mirror and apparently both failed. I've had times that the regular server failed and the mirror won the auction for me, but never a time when both failed.
I'm really pissed it just so happened to fail on a card I was so excited about and likely will never see again. I...
I think gixen just screwed me. Put in a big bid on the bagwell only to have it not register. Can't get into gixen site either.

New batch of pickups scanned:
1997 Spx Bound for Glory Autograph 5/250 (Jersey #)
Also picked up some duplicates of some nice 90s inserts
2002 Donruss Elite Back 2 Back Jacks Double /75
2002 Fleer Box Score 1st Edition 5/100 (Jersey #)
2003 SPx Gold 1/5
Disappointed about some chipping...
I think he finally dropped it to $9.99 and there was a 10% eBay bucks so I finally pulled the trigger. I think he initially wanted $35 or something crazy.

Got some new pickups to share
Not sure what year this is from, but the looks to be a regional release with an early style bagwell auto
A wilson glove tag, not sure what year
2003 Splendid Splinter Dual bat Unnumbered
Have the regular version /99 as well
2003 Victory Blue /50
2005...

2017 Topps Rediscover Topps 2006 Topps...
Other half of the pickups:
2016 National Treasures 12 Player Materials Gold 5/10 (Jersey #)
I never thought I would own one of these given the competition from other collectors and often the failure to list bagwell in the listings. In either case a BIN came up and I couldn't have acted any...
Finally got around to scanning new pickups:
1995 R&N China S20 Rookie Reprint /1000
Not sure how many of these are actually out there. The seller claims to never have seen one serial numbered above 212
1998 Sports Illustrated First Edition 1/1
1999 Ultimate Victory Ultimate Victory...
