Got this the other day on ebay input on if it is the reprint or not would be appreciated.

Hey J! Looks like the reprint. Shape of that 3rd stripe from the scan.

The horse has been beat to death but it kills me you have to ask if it’s authentic, like isn’t that the point of grading?? *facepalm* these companies sometimes

It does not bother me that much so many cards out there have different variations I look at it the same way.

Thanks Joe does not surprise me since I got it cheap still happy with it though now I just got to keep my eyes open for the originals even though I do not see the difference compared it to my other one and they look the same to me. I am half blind so that is not saying much.

I probably have 20 of those, at least 5-10 graded. They all look like the reprint. I even looked at EVERY one on eBay one day, and they all looked like the reprint.

Wow that is not encouraging.

Hi all! I found this card in a collection I bought today. Is it as rare as I'm reading about the "Winners" in the Pacific thread?
Thanks!

That should pay for a nice portion of the collection you just purchased.

Yeah it's hard to spot until you finally see it. I made this to hopefully help out a bit.

Here was a real one. If only 250 were made, I wonder how many will surface since nobody seems to know about them. I wonder how much one would go on auction for if it was labeled properly as well.

Very nice here is mine. I wish I knew it was you chasing that 1/1. I think I was the second high bidder on it. Last 2 on the way just got the/15 tonight. Also I think you were my hot competition in the very begging when they hit ebay sorry for costing you extra money.

 

[7guns]

So the reason I stopped by tonight my 2017 and 2018 runs are out for grading and I just got the 2019's done except for all the 1/1's. So I need to go back in time I am missing the 2016 /25 and /10. If you have an extra one please let me know. Thanks

 

[onionring9]

Those are all some great looking autos. I always wonder what something like that would have gone for if it was released in '98-'00.

Lots of familiar user names in here. I posted a few months ago but, after roughly 8 years out of the game, I'm slowly getting back in. I used to converse with you all back in the Beckett days. When I took a break, I had a near-complete run of every Mac GU card that existed at the time. I think I was 5-6 cards short. I don't even want to think how far behind I am now. I've picked up some decent sized collections lately at some garage sales / estate sales. Nothing high end but still good to get back into things. There's even been some Macs sprinkled in. Brings back a ton of memories.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you all know of a private McGwire signing in January. I'm not sure if you were all aware. It is limited to 100 submissions. I can provide details if anyone is interested.

Jerry! I'm just now seeing this. I've been pretty active with the Gold Label and Transcendent. Grabbed the purple /10 parallel tonight. It was me that bid on the first ones that hit eBay lol. I overpaid by $25-30 a card, but, I knew I'd pay more at the beginning. I just wanted to get them early and check them off the list. Still hoping the 1/1 parallel pops up soon!
