There's a live one on eBay from Five Star and I emailed the seller about it so I knew I was buying the correct card since mine was a redemption. He said he got it as a replacement for another Griffey auto. Not sure what one, but hopefully it wasn't A&G.

That is weird. I have three Five Star Griffey auto redemptions that are still listed as pending. I also have a pending Griffey A&G Red auto #'d to 10. Topps had better not screw me out of that Red A&G because I paid a ton for it, and I would surely take a huge loss on anything they mailed me as a "replacement." I'd imagine Griffey signed the A&G cards when he signed all the others recently, but you never know. I also don't see how that guy could have been sent that card as a replacement. Weren't all the redemptions inserted into packs? If there are 99 Griffey redemptions in packs, how could he have been given one as a replacement? Do you think maybe they only issued 90 or so into packs, and kept 9 just in case of a scenario like this? It just seems odd... As far as he getting his before anybody else, does Topps individually send replacement cards before they mail out the rest with their bulk shipping discounts? I know they wait until they get enough items to ship to qualify for certain discounts, so that may be why this guy got his first and the rest of us have to wait. I'm just anxious to receive my Griffey autos! I have been waiting about half a year on the Red A&G. I bought that one the first week the product hit the shelves.

He said his was a replacement for a Tier One Griffey auto. Hopefully the A&G and Five Star get mailed soon. But yeah, I'm not sure why they'd already be sending out Five Star autos as replacements.

Does anybody have a 1997 SPX Force Griffey auto or 1999 MVP Prosign Griffey Auto for sale? What about 2000 Ovation Superb Signatures gold or rainbow?

I have the '97 spx force and '99 prosign autos - not really selling, but always willing to try and work something out. Been helping a few others (including TPM) with their Griffey collections lately so drop me a PM when you get a chance.

Any of you guys need any Leaf Exhibits cards? I have a couple that I was going to list on ebay but I figured I would throw them out on here first. I will get checklist codes when I get home from work.

Hey Tpm2780,

I just looked at your Griffey collection on PhotoBucket. Very impressive! I really like those Exquisite USA Patch autos. I didn't even realize those existed.

One of these days I'll have to get my stuff on PhotoBucket.

Thanks! Those cards are really nice! Really cool having 8 of those as I never thought I would have that many of the 30 out there! It's definitely an AMAZING collection for sure! Gotta be one of the best out there at least in terms of patches and patch auto cards!;)
