Griffey Collector's Thread

Listed under Griffey not Griffey Jr

This one didnt sell for $515. It was listed, then the auction was ended less than a few hours later. It was an off-ebay deal

 

[Sevilst]

Oh okay, my bad just saw the ending price on it. Thanks for clarifying that

 

[Joey_peapod]

I understand the market , and $1750 may be a lil low, I could see $3500 or under but if $17500 was paid that is silly. The Masterpiece Flairs didn't bring that (If I remember correctly) . And I don't feel the 24kt falls in the same category as the Crusade Reds.

Someone actually listed one of these 24kt Golds that sold for $80 a lil over a year ago. Oops . I see a Now Credential sold in 2012 for $4k, but can't tell if there was a BO on it. Still a good market for sure.

Anyway , the 24kts are very nice , I own the Clark and its one of my favorites. But $17500, no thanks

If someone bought that for $17500, send then to me so I can sell the rest of my collection!!!

Joey_peapod referred me to join this site to try and add to my Griffey Jr. PC!
So if anyone has any available let me know.
Example of what I'm looking for -
Griffey Jr Inserts/Parallels/refractors/diecuts/#'d stuff - mainly from the 90's (Singles or Lots)
Or autos (any year)

Examples of non-autos I am interested in and looking for:
Must be 90's (May be interested in '00-'01 stuff)
Refractors
Platinum medallion
Artist proofs
Press proofs
Rare parallels
Legacy collection
Inserts/parallels that were a tough pull
Mirror gold/blue/red
Topps gold label - Red labels
Rare die-cuts
Serial #'d 90's stuff

Haven't posted in a while...figured I'd post a few pics of my personal favorite graded Griffey's I've been able to acquire over the past couple years.

and a couple raw cards of note...

I feel lucky to have held that masterpiece in my own hands, even if it was for only a minute Awesome cards Justin. I have owned a lot of nice ones through the years. Now I think you and Goob have most of them (except for my autos).

 

[murphy17]

Oh, in case you guys are interested and haven't seen, I have all of the 1997-1999 legacies up for sale at auction right now. The only one missing is the 1997 Row 0, which I sold privately to Joey.

 

[goobmcnasty]

I was so stoked to see this card pop up for sale... until I realized it was a fake. This is just the regular Diamond Club card that someone glued a diamond to.

The authentic version doesn't have such a refractory finish, and there are no (sunburst type) lines in the background. Here is a real Maddux.

I have noticed over the years that this card never seems to pop up. Why does it seem to be so rare? Does anybody know? I think it was 1:360 packs and 20 or so in the set. Yeah, it's rare, but it shouldn't be crazy rare. Based on those odds, I would think there were about 250 of them out there. Seems like there may only be 25 or so.

If we could get [MENTION=1759]magicpapa[/MENTION] to post the "real" version, as I'm sure he has a couple lying around, we can all see...

 

[murphy17]

I'm not sure if magic has that one. Never seen him post it. Joey has had his hands on more Griffey rares than Magic has though. If magic doesn't have it, Joey, have you ever had this one? Marco, if you read this, do you have one?

 

[Joey_peapod]

Goob investigator is correct
