2005 Absolute Memorabilia Collector's Thread

[blazers091]

Picked this one up recently:

/100
and a Richie Sexson Reverse /150 Jumbo Jersey

 

[hive17]

I always meant to post in here after I landed my Yount Logo, so there it be in my sig.

I LOVE this set for sweet Yount cards. You could make a sick collection just chasing your guy in this set alone.

Is it inappropriate if I use this thread to ask if anyone has any Andy Pettittes from this set they want to get rid of to PM me? I just got addicted to these cards in the past couple of months and have been pretty much the only Pettittes I have picked up since October.

 

[blazers091]

Picked this one up /25.

Will trade for other jumbos or sell if anyone is interested

 

[nevermore]

If anyone has some Team Tandems sitting in their tradebox I'd love a shot at them. Out of 20 that O'Neill has in the set, I've only got 4 so far.

Team Quads: #36 Reds, #58 Yankees, #59 Yankees
Team Six: #27 Reds, #48 Yankees

I just realized Lofton is also with O'Neill on some of these. Descott77 should get first shot at those, but I'll be interested in any that he doesn't need.

Here is one that I have scanned. Thanks to Magicpapa for helping me find this one:

just went through your jumbos and you have some really nice ones..congrats on getting all those...i still have yet to even see the lofton jumbo...i just pick up the indians trios spectrum and the indians team six so should have those scanned sometime soon for posting

The lofton jumbo is a piece of cap and is numbered out of 10. It's pretty cool looking, but it goes for over 50 most of the times it shows up and i'm usually outbid.

thats what i was figuring so ill have to start a side stash for when the moment comes that i see it...are you buying most of them off ebay or is there somewhere else that lists these? most shows i go to no one has them so ebay has been all i have been using

I usually go to ebay for mine, but I look at beckett marketplace, naxcom, and The Bench for them. I never see jumbos at shows, so I usually just get them off ebay or deal with another jumbo collector from ebay.

The regular is /25 and the reverse is /10. I've only seen one regular but know where three of the reverses are. All the reverses I've seen have pretty nasty white swatches. Probably only one of those three are movable and I suspect it would not be cheap (as in over $50). This is the one in my collection:

^Looks like they're putting more effort in the patch making than before.

Got these so far:




there haven't been many new ones lately except for the ultimate jumbos.

while those do look nice there is no way i would spend that much on any of them...i might have spent $10 on the alomar just because the chief wahoo patch looks cool in that card but $71 no way


blazers091-- do you have a list of guys you need for the jumbos? im going to a show in a couple weeks and i was can keep my out out for some if you want...let me know which guys you are looking for and a price range you usually spend on them
