Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #3

[George_Calfas]

Wow! Don't think I would pay that. Didn;t realize that 97's were that much harder to come by. Same print run as 98 correct?

Yes but there are several cards that I have seen only one to three copies, Eddie Murray comes to mind. Packs came out at $15 for the three cards......the 1998 have only been floating around, I assume because many did not want the non-pack issued cards.

Rickey at $75 is a steal as well, especially with the recent 1996 mirror gold prices.

How come no name on the back of the jersey?

Haha that's a great observation. I'll punt to an Orioles fan but in assuming this is a practice jersey or something?

This card has been on ebay for over a month. I finally decided to give it a shot:

Great card Eric! I love that set. I have a few left, but most are sold. I sold a Frank Thomas earlier this year for 1K. Just sold a scrub out of football for $18. Was that an ebay find???

Really? A thousand dollars? Damn!

I just missed this by mere seconds. I was on the last step of the checkout process....

Don't be to bummed. With a refractor line on it, it takes the value down by half or so anyway, so probably a $20 card, maybe even less.

Yep, just met the right buyer at the right time I think. Set collector rather than Thomas collector. I sold the Bags couple weeks back for $85. Not quite as popular as Crusades, but I think they are just as eye appealing in hand. Fleer did great work with that set.

 

[katieneack]

yeah I just saw a few of the listed. you going to grab the larkin?

Wow - I made an offer and won the first 1998 Totally Certified Gold Test Issue Larkin and now 2 more Larkin's were listed. Not sure how many copies I want to buy, but the prices are tough to pass up!

Edit:
Couldn't pass up the $39.99 BIN - Maybe I'll take the peel off one of them and call it a variation

Just bought my first box of 98 Tek... not sure what I want to do with it. I only bought it because the last two went for $40 more and this has free ship.

According to the seller, you can get Jimmy Rollins and Mike Lowell and Carlos Lee RCs! Wow, those aren't on my checklist, he must have the extra special boxes!

You got double the amount I paid for my Bags. I got mine a long time ago. Oddly enough it was auction too, not some nice BIN. But that was a little while before everyone on planet earth was buying up 90's stuff.

Ok, so, 1996 Collector's Choice You Make The Play...there are two versions. Now of the base card, I have both. But I just snagged a gold signature of the card and I'm wondering which version is #3 and which version counts as #3a? I have the strikeout version. I checked the big beckett annual volume and also the monthly and can't figure it out.

The Strikeout is 3, the other version (Walk, I think), is 3A. Not sure why Beckett no longer lists the different versions, they did at one point, that's how I used to tell what I needed.

Is it an error or something?
