Got another Olerud pattern today, #89, courtesy of RustyGreerFan. I'm slowly inching along and am up to 33 patterns. Yay me. :rolleyes:

Glad to help! I recently changed my Jay Buhner base wantlist from cards I have to cards I need... in other words, I'm past halfway!

I need the following patterns:

4, 5, 7, 14, 16, 18, 19, 20, 22, 29, 30, 32, 33, 35, 38, 40, 41, 43, 45, 51, 57, 62, 64, 66, 70, 71, 81, 83, 84, 86, 87, 88, 90

You should go to sportlots.com as they should have some of these for buck each

Unfortunately sportlots and beckett marketplace are cleaned out of Buhners. I'm obviously not the only one collecting them. As for Olerud, you have a good point. The one seller than has them for $1 each on sportlots is willing to negotiate, so that might be a good way to go. Maybe you can get him down to 50 cents each?

Diffractors can look a lot different depending on the scanner. Here's my new scanner at work:

Ghumbs sold this to me on COMC - my favorite pattern "Wavy Gravy"

rinkrat38 traded this to me - another great pattern takes me up to four Franks!

I stopped bidding at $ .50 a Barry 98 TEK card. Someone has to inflate the value of Barry Bonds cards after all, right?

Haha... Toga you crack me up dude... if only everyone looked at "value" of baseball cards like you do... I would have thousands more in the bank and def more Albert Belle cards in the PC
