Finally, the last of the 26 card 1998 Mystery Finest run for McGwire - refractor error (no R) of McGwire/Griffey. Every Series 1 had an error for each the base and refractor cards - base with no refraction that had an R and refractor with no R. This one evaded me for years...

Nice set! That’s a tough one to get especially with variations. Now you need to 1997 Bowman’s Best mirror image/ inverted along with the no refractor designations lol.

Wait I read that wrong. McGwire has 26 total cards in that set? Base, Ref, errors?

Auctions totally stress me out, but sometimes I really like them. I missed a copy of this card recently, put it on my watch list to make sure I didn’t have it and it was sold. Soon thereafter this one popped up on auction and I won it for under $20 dlvd.

Also snagged this one, one of 100 but took a while to pick it up.

Glad it went to you! Spazzed out and forgot to bid. After selling the single from my partial set I had a hole to fill. That one went super cheap!

Thanks! I couldn’t believe it. It was listed as Prized Collectors so I’m not sure if that had anything to do it.

Hey guys busted some 90s wax for nostalgia sake ('96 Ultra & '99 Topps)... one thing that bummed me out...cards stuck together bad in both products. Are there any other 90s products that are known for sticking so I can stay away next time I bust??? Any info would be great!

I opened several Jumbo boxes of 1993 Leaf recently and they were stuck together quite badly.

Early Stadium Club for me (93/94), as well as Select (95-97).

if it's been stored in a hot or humid climate or in stacks that have a little weight on them , you can almost expect it for ANY early to mid 90's cards that had uv coatings of any kind.....some i personally had lots of issues with were 92-97 ultra....93-97 stadium club...93 and 94 upper deck , and 94 collectors choice and score.....

How about 1996 Select Certified...anyone know if they have sticking issues? I'm guessing they don't since they were made with a removable protective film.

Seriously, if anyone pulls the Chan Ho Mirror Blue, please let me know. I’ve been looking for that since ‘96. I have 2x Mirror Reds & 2x Mirror Golds, but no blue to finish that rainbow.

Also, any other rare or low numbered Parks!

It's both, really. Greenwell has a following and the Red Sox Platinums/Premiers seem to be some of the hardest to get. Just ask the Canseco fans. I think I sold my 1991 Score Promo Greenwell for $200.

Damn I just sold a 95 Score Gold Rush Greenwell cheap privately buy it was pretty beat up
