Griffey Collector's Thread

[Warren of Oz]

Now I only need the Vlad Guerrero and my Masterpieces Stroke of Genius set will be complete.

Have you ever seen a Vlad? I know 3 people that need only it to finish that set.

Magic,

That was me! Finally!!! It took almost a full year for me to get that card. I can't wait to get it. I also have an 08 on the way if Griffey signs them. Now I only need the Vlad Guerrero and my Masterpieces Stroke of Genius set will be complete.

My internet connection isn't working at my house right now. They should be fixing it this week and I'll be on after that.

You also got the Thomas, nice.

Thanks man. I did get the Thomas also. 1 left.

I've only seen the 1/1 green bordered one on Ebay a while ago. I wish I would have jumped on that, but I figured there would be a few of the black ones out there. That's cool to know that 3 people are that close to finishing also.

Roy,

We'll see I guess. Thanks for the kind words. The one that I lost out on this summer went for around $300. Crazy. Hopefully you'll get one soon.

Thanks, Magic! I'm very excited to get it. I really hope the Griff signs the 08 Masterpieces autos also. The picture is better on that one. I like them both though.

Need some help here from anyone

currently an ebay auction 370134241199
is listed and I'm trying to understand what I would be buying.

Its a /5 milestone signature card with 2500 hits on it and an auto.

When I look in Beckett it says there are 2 prints of 25, one of 5 and some 1/1's.

What I wanted someone to answer, is
are all /5 cards the same (2500 hits) or are there different ones.

Also are there other /5 cards with different "milestones listed"?

According to Beckett, there is one set of /5 but I'm confused as I know milestone cards typically give you different milestones for the player.

If this /5 auto milestones is special enough I'd like to bid on it, because I'm partial to premier, but if there's other /5 sets or whatever and its one of many I would not bid.

Any help from anyone appreciated

Here's the one to /25.. 2,500 hits as well..

[ebay:2rgdp3ht]360108133224[/ebay:2rgdp3ht]

and another one to /25..

[ebay:2rgdp3ht]110306090807[/ebay:2rgdp3ht]

and here's the one you are looking at..

[ebay:2rgdp3ht]370134241199[/ebay:2rgdp3ht]

Just looks like the color at the bottom is different..

I see the one you are looking at is a relist..

Pin breaker
thanks much for all your cool links and help

Looks like one of those typical cards which appear in many different printing #'s but are basically the same.

The first auction went to only $117 and I don't know why he's relisting but that's a price which I'd pay. It certainly should not go much higher I would think.

I guess I go for it to some extent

 

[magicpapa]

REAL SLOW HERE for me

just need the gold now

robe28, your card made it and will go out 12/27

Great maildays all around! Congrats on all of the amazing pick ups guys.

Things have been really slow on my end. I'm hoping to be able to start picking things up after the first of the year.

I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. Everyone be safe and have fun. I hope you all have a great Christmas.
