Hey Guys and Gals,

This is my first time here, but you guys have some awesome cards. I look forward to trading with you. I wanted to ask if anyone has been to ballcardz.com ? He looks like he has some nice Griffey cards, but his site is very incomplete. I've tried looking up feedback and can't find any.

Thanks,

Danny

Not even right. UD has him as an exclusive and if he signs quarterly like they said, I don't know what he's been signing.

welcome to the boards Griffey4Prez , hope to see some of your collection posted soon

soxfan33 ,ive been burned a few times on redemption of griffeys that they never ended up making in the past :twisted:

 

[Griffey4Prez]

Hey,

Thanks for the welcome. I don't have anything that is awe inspiring. I have every regular issue Upper Deck Griffey (just the standard card i.e. 1989 #1, 1994 #224, etc.) through 2008 in PSA 10 condition. Only missing the 2009's, both #93's the 89 UD SP card and the #855 regular and variants. BTW, if anyone can help me acquire the 2009 Upper Deck cards in PSA 10 condition, I'd be glad to negotiate a deal for them.

Thanks,

Danny

Welcome to the boards Danny.
As far as the 2009 PSA 10's good luck with them. I have been following
them on Ebay and they sell really well! I have tried 3 times for the White Sox one
but have yet to have any luck. I love that one. I have yet to see a PSA one . I just saw a 2009 Topps PSA 10
on Ebay.

 

[Griffey4Prez]

I have yet to see a 2009 UD PSA 10 Griffey on eBay...I even have an alert set for them. I doubt I'll ever complete the #855 variant set in PSA 10 condition, but if I can get the #93's and the other SP, I'll be in good shape...although, I'm gunning for all of them!

as per email reply
" holo # UDC06155. There is no coa card. Thanks and good luck, Paul

 

[Griffey4Prez]

I don't care what made up holo # he says there is, that is NOT a Griffey auto. Way to go and mess up a $40 card for some sucker to get stuck with a fake.

Might as well add the updated list here,

The following came up for auction with the COA.
14/89 hologram #UDC08461
20/89 hologram #UDC08455
24/89 hologram #UDC08451
26/89 hologram #UDC08451
34/89 hologram #UDC08441
35/89 hologram #UDC08440
37/89 hologram #UDC08438
49/89 hologram #UDC08426
54/89 hologram #UDC08421
56/89 hologram #UDC08419
62/89 hologram #UDC08413
65/89 hologram #UDC08410
70/89 hologram #UDC08405
73/89 hologram #UDC08402
74/89 hologram #UDC08401
89/89 hologram #UDC08385

All of these numbers are in the same series.


Now the ones that have not had COAs

02/89 hologram #UDC11651
02/89 hologram #UDC3200
13/89 hologram #UDC12033 Verified as fake by Beckett & UD.
17/89 hologram #UDC10376
19/89 hologram #UDC09340
27/89 hologram #UDC07467
29/89 hologram #UDC06155
39/89 hologram #UDC06182
45/89 hologram #UDC27645
47/89 hologram #UDC17342
48/89 hologram #UDC07362 has wrong COA
68/89 hologram #UDC09280
77/89 hologram #UDC16430
81/89 hologram #UDC23770
88/89 hologram #UDC06396



Seems strange that the ones with lost COAs have hologram numbers that are not close to the ones with COAs

 

[Griffey4Prez]

How much is there really to gain by faking one of these? What have they sold for? I'm totally oblivious to that. If it's not like $200-300 plus profit, then ruining a card like this is really not even worth it...kinda like counterfeiters making $5 and $10 bills when they get the print technology.

Danny (Griffey4Prez),

I was doing a search for my site name, since I recently re-launched, and found this thread. Great place for me to be, although I never thought about forums. I can assure you that I'm legit and can handle your Griffey requests. I have 100% feedback on eBay (mattscardstore), and the site is more of a hobby than it is a business. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me through here or through the site.

P.S. That Griffey fake scenario is pretty obvious. Good work on tracking the fakes from the real ones.

81/89 hologram #UDC23770 $760
88/89 hologram #UDC06396 $$860 2nd time $565


So there are a few dollars to be made faking them.
