FS/FT 1998 (& 1999) Topps Tek Cards - Need Anything?

[SINFULONE]

Like I told you in my PM, it is a favorite on the '90s board and I know you can find boxes of '99 out there but you'll have trouble finding a box of '98. If you get a crack at a box of '98, you'll drop ~$125 and if you go after a box of '99, they are like $100 or less, not sure.

Anyways, let me know if you want any other cards/patterns I have left. Your three cards will be in the mail today.

By the late '90s I had gotten out of collecting, these cards must have been hobby only, I never saw them in retail.I've seen the set listed in Beckett before, just had never seen them in person.Did not know boxes were that expensive, guess I'll just stick to singles.Were there no inserts in these other than the parallels?

I didn't think you pulled anymore Cardinals, if you stumble across anymore let me know.With only 90 players in the set, there are probably only 3-4 players at the most.

Topps even got more creative with the '99 set!

I prefer the 99 set too. The golds are much nicer than diffractors. Diffractors are overrated IMO
. That said, going for 90 different patterns is a lot of fun

I like the patterns Topps decided to put on the '99 cards better.The Diffractors look like base cards to me, I understand you have to see them in person.

I found the Cirillo you were looking for, but never heard back from you.Do you still need it?

All PMs have been replied too and all cards purchased have been sent at this point. Anyone else? I still haven't heard back from some, so all cards are open at this point.

I was flipping through an old Beckett the other night and found an interesting factoid.'98 Topps Tek has 90 different patterns for every player, yet Topps threw a curveball to collectors in '99 Topps Tek when I found that each player only has 30 different variations, yet each player has a home and away card in the set.

Up to see if anyone else has interest? Probably peeling off onto eBay starting this weekend...

Heh, here is some irony.Years ago I went to a show here and while digging through the dollar bin found this and had to buy it.Forgot I even had it.
