The new King of my Thomas collection (no pun intended). Originally posted the Ripken from the same set hoping for a trade, but was lucky enough to have the opportunity to make this purchase thanks to the Ripken. I thought it was lost in the mail coming to me, but it arrived, and it is glorious:

Diffractors are pretty awesome

Wow, awesome! I don't think I've seen a player collection put together like that until now.

I scooped up this Griffey Diffractor for $10 recently...

And now I have my page of 9, but when I scan all 9 at once they don't look so great:

Seem to scan better by themselves:

I recently said that Griffey Diffractors at auction have been going up up up - from $30 early last year to $40 to recently $50.

I bought this card with some production damage for $28ish from Burbank, then one at auction for about the same, then lucked up on one for $5 on a BIN... but last night one sold for like $56?!

I don't know if these are flukes, but the market seems to be increasing for tough Griffeys at a faster pace than before. Not sure if it's representative of the market for tough 90's stuff as a whole.

Sorry; that was one of my toughest purchases.

Got a few really good deals/steals from one seller in today. I'm looking to move most or all of them and it won't take much to get the smaller stuff.

The Matthews is /100, which surprised me. Wouldn't mind a star from that set for my PC.

Great deals! Can't believe he didn't list the big cards individually. Congrats!

Trip fell and landed on a '98 Tek box. I've got some PMs already but if you need your guy, let me know via PM and I'll reach out tonight or tomorrow after I break it up.

I posted the Andruw Jones diffractor for 39.99 on ebay and it already has two watchers :lol: Crazy what some will pay for these. I thought I'd post some ridiculous amount since I don't mind keeping it for my PC.

They may not have resized yet in photobucket. Sorry for the huge scans.

Be careful on the Thomas, as it could be the light blue, which are tough to distinguish from the silvers.

I recall them being difficult to tell but didn't realize how tough it is. I've never owned a 97 pacific parallel but this one looks like all the other pacific silvers I've owned. Thanks for the heads up.
