Thanks to magic for the heads up on this one. Now should I peel off the protective coating or leave it alone?

not trying to spam or anything but what should i be expecting to get for this lot because im not really sure what these inserts go for anymore?

any help would be appreciated, thanks!

my guess it would be VERY hard to find a buyer, as probably not many "set collectors" of inserts, most being player collectors? Your best bet would probably be to pull out the big stars of the expensive sets (if you have any) and list them, and then donate the remainder to a church or other charity and use as tax writeoff....JMO

Honestly you have some nice stuff there but the bad thing is I can get those same cards at any card show in the 25 cent bin at the most.If you lowered your BIN to around $50 you'd probably have a lot more luck.I am not sure when you purchased them or for how much but those usually go really cheap.If I had to guess...I could snag everything you have there for well under you asking price which is why I say $50 is good because I think people would be more inclined to buy them.

Too bad they are not Pacific Insert sets from the time! That might be another story!

Gotta wonder what the heck that was all about.Those aren't that expensive normally.I find those same kinds of cards in the dollar bins from time to time.Even of star players.I actually picked up quite a few Bagwells like that for about $2-$3 a pop all from the same seller.

Personally, I won't buy a Pacific card of my guys. I think they just look cheap.

The prices just amazed me though.

Bid war between JUST TWO bidders. If there was only one interest person instead of two, would have got it for opening bid.

I agree with you on most but some are nice. If you said Star I would completely agree.
98 Pacific Online Winners card is high on my wantlist.

I see that but it still makes very little sense.These cards aren't that rare.Why not wait for another one to pop?I mean...that's a serious amount to spend on not so hard to find cards.

Just two guys just measuring their you-know-whats (I'm not talking brains here). Set and player collectors get like this with their competition!

I won't until I purchase a second one...then the ugliest one will get pealed.

The protective coating really cuts down on the motion quality of the film though.
