1997 Score Regional Team Boxes - Premier Club

nevermore said:

There was a thread earlier on these which might be helpful: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=131850

These were quite limited, only 100 cases produced for each team!

Here are some calculations I did earlier estimating the print-runs on these:

20 boxes per case = 2000 total boxes
32 packs per box = 64,000 packs

Premier 1:31 packs = 64,000/31 = 2,064
Platinum 1:6 packs = 64,000/6 = 10,667

15 card checklist per team

2,064/15 = Premier 137 cards per player
10,667/15 = Platinum 711 cards per player

Whoa, thats a lot of Math for this late at night. My brain hurts now... But thanks for doin the legwork on that.

Anyone ever see the Bagwell from the set?

Busted a box of Braves:

Hmmm. Looks like you did pretty well. I'm sure McGriff still has a few fans and you did really well on the Platinum Teams too.

check with Eric (thosebackpages) he collects McGriff..

I used to have the entire Braves set. I drove around buying so many of those packs at the retail stores that I actually completed a master set of Braves cards - I think I had over 200 base team sets! :lol:

The most I had of any one player was Grissom - 6.

I had a weird day yesterday, and a lot of it had to do with these Score regional issues.

It started last week when I bought a box of Braves and a box of Orioles. The first pack in the Braves box I get the Premier Club - it's Fred McGriff. The exact guy I got as my Premier Club the other time I bought a Braves box, only this one has some pretty bad centering. So I quit opening packs out of that box and moved on to the Orioles. I don't get much to write home about. My Premier Club was BJ Surhoff.

Flash forward to yesterday and I listed a bunch of my Braves and Orioles (will list Yanks today). I list my poorly centered McGriff for 39.99 w/ a 44.99 BIN and it sells within an hour.

After work I get home and notice someone has posted some Score regional Red Sox on COMC. I've never really seen them before. I snag the Canseco Platinum Team for $3 and by this morning I've flipped it for $10. He also has a Clemens Premier Club listed for $10. I offer $5, and he comes back with a counter of $15... he just raised the price of the card to $20. I decline.

Then this morning I check out the listings and someone has posted a Mike Piazza Premier Club on ebay for just under $11 w/ free shipping. I hit it instantly. The Dodgers are much easier to come by than some of the other teams, but I'm guessing I can flip this card.

Sometimes things happen in bunches!

says you

from what I've heard, Piazzas come up all the time. The guy I'm looking for? Not so much.

I've heard stories suggesting all the boxes in a given case carry the same Premier Club parallel.

Now that would be very interesting...

Ooo, are we posting Premier Clubs? I'll join in

Love the centering!

I snagged that Canseco... I thought I had bought one on there about a year ago now but somehow due to their screwup it mysteriously turned into a Cal Ripken Jr. They refunded my purchase price and sent me the card. At that time I paid $15 instantly for it so $10 was a pretty good deal this time around.

Glad I could help a fellow board member!

Dang - looks like you missed out on the one on COMC. It's gone now.

check with clarkfan.. maybe he picked it up to flip

Speaking of Piazzas coming up all the time, the same seller listed another Piazza Premier Club today. He's probably got a whole stack and is selling them one by one.

fffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu....

There was a guy on eBay who used to offer lots of Piazza and Ivan Rodriguez quite often.

I got the Rivera Premier Club on FCB. It's the only tough 90's Rivera card I've picked up on this site.
