What have the Sandberg/Dawson duals sold for. I see a really sweet looking one of those ends tonight. It's at $33 right now.
I would be surprised if it ends over 40. 25-40 is pretty average. GL if you are going for it. It's a nice card!


I was watching that one too. It ended at $48!!! I still don't have one because I refuse to get into a bidding war with the damn Sandberg collectors :lol:

I did pick this up yesterday for $18 dlvd

So now I have 2 of the Dawsons, and obviously 1 Williams. I just looked at Beckett again and realized how many cards I have to go to finish the Dawson/Williams set.

For Dawson

Decades #AD
Dual MVP's #DS/175 w/Sandberg
Dual ROY's #DM/25 w/Murray - I've never even seen one of these

For Williams

Base #3/825
Decades #BW
Numbers #BW/26
Supremacy #BW/99

So 2 down, 7 to go!! Wideright will probably finish before I do :lol: :lol:
Nice pickup!! The Murray/Dawson will be your toughest. I've only seen about 5 of them. I'm still keeping an eye out for some good deals on those cards. Seems like the Decades, if you are patient, you'll be able to nab those for $7 or less along with the Supremacy. The base Williams... in our next break if a base comes up I'll ask whoever gets it if they wouldn't mind you having it.

Anyone seen that Junior Immortal on Ebay for over a grand. Not sure if that copy is one of the recent one's that sold. Any idea Wide how many cards George Kell signed in the product. I'm sure we will see a spike in his prices now. He is one of the few I've have picked up so far.

I love seeing this thread hit the surface :D

I don't think the Griffey is one that's been sold recently. I don't recall ever seeing #5/99 before. But I do think 1K is absurd. The platinum immortal could reach that, but not the regular version.

Kell signed approximately 450 cards:
Decades - 350
Supremacy - 99
Platinum Decade - 1

Not sure if we'll see a small spike or not, his Decades card come up quite often.

Th Kell signed cards could have its own little set in a set with how he signed some all over the place. I see one on ebay where he signed over his picture. Too bad he doesn't have a card in the numbers set.
One question on the decades cards. So when a guy is pictured in various jerseys. Like how Gaylord Perry has Rangers/Giants cards. Are any jersey variation of any of these harder to find than others for certain player's. For example is Hernandez Mets harder to find than his Cardinals?

The guys with two different cards are all in the highest print run tiers. If any of them are in shorter supply, it isn't noticeable.

I posted this a few pages back because I noticed Kell's Decades cards with a bunch of variations on how he signed.

As far as variations, I agree with Chris, I don't think there is a noticeable difference in qty's especially with the Tiant's, Perry's, Hernandez's. My guess is there are equal qty's for both versions of each guy. Bogg's and Ryan are the only two with variations that are serial numbered, and they are numbered the same for each.

Cool that you got some props from beckett ru4scuba. Are those your cards pictured in that.

Back when I was starting.... and Beckett was still cool.

June 2006 Beckett Baseball

Wow, 06. I remember that! That was the first Jeter I pulled. Sold that one to you after I pulled the one I currently have. I can't remember how many Decades I had at the time. I don't think I had as many as you.

match: I did put the prospect set together. The original set released 10 prospoects #/225. Then UD released UD Update in late 05 which had another 100 or so. Can't remember how many. After I put the set together I decided to sell it because they were all stickers. :( There were some nice player in there... Fielder, Zimm, Drew, Martin, Soto. Too bad they slapped stickers on them. Blech.

The only on of the Prospects I have is Yabu because it is his only A's autograph card. Other than that, I stay away from the stickered Prospects.

Another Wilson/Buckner is up, wonder if this one goes nuts.

Not much for immortal inscriptions out.
Yep I have it on the watch list. I don't think it will go that high. In fact, I bet it doesn't reach 60 this time. Yeah, the immortals have really quieted down. What cards if any have you picked up from the set?

I haven't scored an immortal yet. I wish I was around when the Gagne went for so cheap. I've gotten few decades from most of the easy/cheaper to find ones like Tiant (Twins), Wills, Kell, Irvin, Upton, Doerr. Their is just so many sweet autograph cards in this product.

Yeah, that stinks. Its always good when you can nab one cheap cuz the next one is bound to go ballistic. There have been a few sellers ditching their larger stashes lately. That will probably run dry here real soon and we'll see a lull for a few weeks with not much being listed. Then it'll start back up again probably around season opening.

If you have a list of any particular ones you are looking for lmk I'll keep an eye out for them. :)

If you see one going cheap send me the link. Other than Gagne I doubt many will go cheap like that again. Even the last Bunning got bid up pretty good if I recall.

Surprised some Will Clark collector hasn't struck a deal on that one, it's been on ebay a long time.
Looks like Buckner/Wilson card calmed down. The recent one went off at $38.
So did Don Larson sign the back of all of his cards? don't ever seem to see that one come up for sale. I got a Monte Irvin in the mail today. Always nice to get some Ultimate mail. Anyone been picking up anything from the set as of late.
