So I have 2 Tek cards I would like to trade: Tony Gwynn (card 23/pattern 60) and Mo Vaughn (card 87/pattern 88). I would like to get a Chipper Jones and Greg Maddux in return. Let me know if you want to make a deal.

I need the Gwynn. I'll trade either a Chipper (pattern 17) or a Maddux (pattern 81)...

I will be moving my 81 different versions of Andruw Jones if any of you are interested. I will only sell them as a whole, figured I would let you know before throwing them on ebay. PM me if interested. My diffractors have already gone to Fandruw25, I believe they are all duplicates for him, so he may have some trade bait for some of you looking for them.

Btw, I am missing patterns 16, 28, 31, 33, 34, 70, 73, 76, and 79.

True, it does have the important bits though, imho.........Honestly I dont search TEK just diffractor, yes I might miss a few listings but for my player(s) I hit enough cards.

I'm pretty certain that raw Jeter Diffractors sell for $75, so that auction was a great buy. I definitely missed it in my searches.

So does that mean Gwynn is now valued at $ 5 or Maddux at $ 3. lol

I am selling my entire collection over the next few years, so really no desire to finish the set now. But thanks for the encouragement and help in previous years.

BIG THANKS to elberson. He sent me the last pattern I needed to complete the 90 card base set FOR FREE. I owe you big time! Another thanks to rinkrat38 for trading me my 17th different Caminiti diffractor and 18th overall. rinkrat38 and togaman were a big help in helping me complete this set.

Here is my 90 card base set of Caminiti in order from top to bottom and from left to right. I am so excited to have all 90, it took me 16 months to put this together.

That's cool man, congrats! So much for being "held hostage" for that last pattern ;)

Wow, Congrats! I would NEVER have thought anyone could put together a player run in under 2 years, that's impressive (and had to have some luck thrown in as well)!

No kidding! I'm working on Jay Buhner and am still only about half way! Great post, too. It's cool to see them all together.

I've been putting together the Belle '98 and '99 tek sets for about 2 years now, maybe little less.... I have the '99s complete and am 17 away from the set of '98s

PadresFan86 - Great job on the Ken Caminiti's. Or as we lovingly called him in Chicago, Ken KindaShXXty.

Chadgwynn - have pattern #81 if that's one of the Gwynn's you need.

Why did you guys call him that lol I always admired how hard he played the game even to this day regardless of the steroid use. One of these days I'm going to upload a picture of my 10 year old self wearing my Caminiti shirt as my avatar lol

Thanks for the comments. I had to track down some of these patterns. They werent easy to find.

Put me in line for the Gwynns. I also collect him.
