Help.. 90 donruss aqueous

[ronfromfresno]

I am thinking a huge find may have been hit and its going to slowly unfold itself over time.

I would tend to agree. Chandy has been leaking singles into the market for a long time, and just when it seems he's run out, he lists commons in lots of 6 to 9 cards on eBay. The new seller of the sealed packs communicated to me that all the singles and packs he's listing came from a big purchase of a store or something. My guess is Chandy had more than three boxes of these and since the new seller has already listed 15 packs he's got a few boxes and will slowly leak them into the hobby. I've assumed all along that these weren't as rare as they appear, they're just locked away while the hype and demand raise the prices on them.

Does anyone have some uncut sheets of 1990 Donruss cards? I'm wondering the Aqueous printing seems to go the other direction on the BC cards listed on eBay. Were these cards printed upside down originally on a sheet. Also, if there are some sheets out there we might be able to determine which cards were double printed, if any, and possible determine which cards are rarer based on how sheets were produced.

I asked on 2 forums awhile back if anyone had any of these, but didn't really get any response. Was also helping the sheets could flesh out the Blue/White Test checklist. Its funny how hard it seems to be to find sheets of one of the most overproduced sets ever!

Especially since I see Topps sheets from that time frame pop up all of the time.

This is the checklist of 264 cards:

1990 Donruss Aqueous Test #BC-10 Ryne Sandberg

Ah, PSA did not have the Sandberg listed, so that makes an even sheet with no double prints.

 

[tunahead]

Ah, PSA did not have the Sandberg listed, so that makes an even sheet with no double prints.

From what I can tell, it looks like most of the double prints are in the Blue/White Test set, but whether or not both printings make it into that set, I'm not sure

 

[thelesquad]

Thought I had the aqueous covered. It's gonna be a pain finding one of these in my price range.

 

[ronfromfresno]

Looks like the new packs have been sold. Again if anyone here happened to win one of the packs and pull a Robby Thompson, I'd be intreseted purchasing it or trading for it.

 

[ronfromfresno]

Actually, looks like the packs were sold to just two bidders, with one of them purchasing 6 of the 7 packs.

 

[ronfromfresno]

Three more packs listed.

these dont seem to be as rare as 1st thought, and i agree, market will start getting flooded and then why would
ryan or mattingly be 1500+ ? still seems like junky 90 donruss to me

I've assumed all along that these weren't as rare as they appear, they're just locked away while the hype and demand raise the prices on them.

I really doubt this new guy got his stuff from Chandy. His store has been closed here in Winston-Salem for 10+ years.

He's not in the set

 

[NECpilgrims8]

He's not in the set

He's #306 in 1990 Donruss.

Didn't they essentially make these for every player in the regular set?
