Junk wax rookie quantities...how many are too many? Randy Johnson

[masonphillip]

I used to own 60,000 91 upper deck Kevin reimer.., Paid .12 per... Sold for .04 per... Sucked!

I used to own 20,000 91 ud final edition Jim thome.. Paid .20 per.. Sold 1.00+ per.. That rocked!!!

The good old days.. BG

a $16K profit on Thome...and a $4.8K loss on Reimer...might be the two biggest $$ figures associated with both of those names!!

1000 for each pigeon he brutally murdered.

He's history's greatest monster! (Next to Jimmy Carter of course.)

If its still fun, keep going. Get one rookie card for every K and stop there Ian

+1 That is a great idea.

At last count I have about 135 of Schilling's '89 Donruss rookie...

I'm sitting on about 15,000 Will Clark rookies (all varieties). 6-7 of the 3200 count boxes full.

...and I'm just thinking out loud here...200lbs of them?

Still liking this idea.

I think you go after the 1989 Fleer variations. Get every version, as many copies of every version. Know every difference, large or small, between every version of the card. Calculate the percentage of each version of the card. Become the resident expert on the 1989 Fleer Randy Johnson. Anytime anyone posts about a 1989 Fleer Randy Johnson, no one says a damn thing without referring to you first. Kind of like RITM is with the Ripken minor league issues.

That's what I think you should do.

From what I've seen with the Fleer #381 errors, he could come close to his original goal of 100 rookies(All Different) from just their variations even though PSA only labels 3 types and and BGS 4. Those cards are a trip. I don't think PSA/BGS will ever label them correctly though.
