Just joined the forum after (thankfully) finding this thread via Google. I'm just now starting to collect 90s inserts as it's awesome to be able to own some of the cards I drooled over as a kid. Here are a few of my recent pickups:

Anyone know if there's a case out there that will fit this thing? I'd love to be able to store it with my other cards in toploaders.

You sound like me about one year ago. One of the first pick-ups I made coming back to the hobby was that Elite Edgar. Love the Buhner Masterpiece! Did you get that online or in person? I also am wondering what to do with my Griffey resin card.

welcome to the boards, Ghumbs. That Flair Masterpiece is off the hook! A true rarity from an age when 1/1s were truly special.

Thanks. I actually saw it at the local card show last Saturday. It caught my eye and I asked to see it out. He said, "Now you can say you saw one in person." Good salesman. I asked him what he's looking to get for it, he told me, and I decided to take a look around the rest of the show. Couldn't get it off my mind and I knew I had to have it. I brought some cards to trade and we worked out a cash/card deal.

Obviously these rarely go up for sale, but do you guys know what semistars/non-stars generally sell for? I have a feeling I paid "too much", but Buhner was one of my favorites and I knew I wanted it.

Also thanks TNP777, good to be here. This thread is amazing and my wantlist is growing rapidly. Except now I see I have to bid against RustyGreerFan on all my Mariners PC

imo, no such thing as paying "too much" for something you want, no matter what it is. this is especially true if there is only one of it in existence.

I love 90's 1/1 stories - there are some doozies out there. Buhner definitely has a following, so I imagine you did okay. This may be apples and oranges, but I paid $75 for my Jake Reed 1997 Flair Masterpiece after the seller failed to sell it on ebay for $150 OBO. All it takes is one other bidder/buyer and the card goes into the hundreds.

I only bid on 90's M's cards that "look cool," so you probably don't have to worry about me. I haven't seen any that interested me in awhile. Burbank has a Z2-Axis, but Buhner's photo isn't "cool" enough for me :ugeek:

ain't that the truth - I've lost out on two different '97 Flair Masterpieces of Butler. Both went well over $200. The last one was a couple years ago - one blogger was stunned that anyone would pay $250 for a Butler card. I would have gladly paid it if an overseas bidder hadn't outsniped me. I imagine most hardcore '90s player collectors would have done the same.

Finally got my Rusty Greer white whale, but I think it looks a little odd. In my opinion, the gold is definitely more faded-looking than other golds.

I guess the new #1 on my hit list is 98 PMG.

I hope I have the opportunity to bid on a Daulton Masterpiece one day. Great buy on that Buhner, no matter what you paid for it. That's a card that can only increase in value as later 1/1s continue to decline. I don't think you'll ever regret acquiring it.

So now I just know that anything I end up with isn't cool enough for you :lol:

My second Mirror Image Inverted Atomic Refractor. One for the collection and one for the set.

1997 Donruss No Name Error

Preferred Prized Collection

Diamond Kings Canvas

Whew, I've really gotta stop letting everything pile up so much.

me like this. do you have the numbered one. i believe a thomas collector picked up a mcgwire recently and unlike most non serialed numbered cards, i think these are recognized in the beckett as being pack pulled errors. ive never seen an unnumbered bags but once owned two of the numbered and once owned the arod
