1998 Flair Perfect 10 - Have one?

klute14 · Jun 12, 2009

Just curious as to who has a copy of one of these very rare cards.
These were randomly inserted into packs and are hand numbered to 10.

Here is the checklist:

Ken Griffey Jr.
Cal Ripken
Frank Thomas
Mike Piazza
Greg Maddux
Nomar Garciaparra
Mark McGwire
Scott Rolen
Alex Rodriguez
Roger Clemens

Being a Clemens collector, I have only seen 2 of these since 1998 and both times the seller had a ridiculous opening bid.

If you have any of the players in the set, let's see them!

This is one card I still really want of Frank. I don't think I've ever seen one of these in person, and very, very rarely online, though I don't check too frequently. 100 total cards during a peak production year of a popular set, good luck.

I have never seen one of these as well, I'm sure they are quite valuable.

Any thoughts on which would be more valuable - the Perfect 10 or the Starting 9 from 1999 Tradition??

I don't know much (anything) about Starting 9, but the Perfect 10's I have seen sell went waayy higher than I thought they would.

Interesting - probably partially due to the pre-2000 Flair Showcase collectors.

That is flat out filthy!!

Whoever put that set together spent some serious coin.
You wonder how many remain upopened.

Jeff,
The seller that had the set...weren't they all #01/10 or am I mistaken?

klute14 · Jun 14, 2009

I wouldn't have broken that set up!
All #'d 1/10 is insane.

If you saw some of the prices he got i'm sure you'd change your mind.

Sorry to bump an old thread...if anyone is familiar with approximate prices that these cards have sold for, or asking prices, I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!
