Check the date, buddy May 2008.

 

[Bornagaincollector]

I'm aware of the date,it might be worth it to send a email if there is something on the list that a person might need.

I sent them a message 6 months ago or so and got no reply.

Oh I wasn't trying to be rude. I tried to send an email as well and have heard nothing.

For being /150, these are incredibly hard to find.

I finally got a Biggio a few months ago. Haven't seen a Manny yet.

You'd be looking for a Manny for a long time- for some reason he wasn't in the checklist for the 99 black diamond...

 

[carrsallstars]

Haven't seen any mention ( I don't think) of the topps gold label cards in this thread- though those were some of the nicer cards for late 90's low #'d inserts. Though tough to track down... and also a bit tricky to keep track of.

This Manny is #4/25

Yes it was. It was a part of a thirty card set sold there.

Each set contained a random phone card. Mine had this one...

I got mine of Bags a while back.Got it cheap too.I think it came from Taiwan so that is probably what scared everyone away.

And remember...your going against diehard player collectors.It will be rough going.

Thanks for the info, was the set expensive?? It was worth it for the phone card right??? (sarcasm...but back then Phone cards were the next big thing, after POGS that is)
