The Super Sweet Early 00's Thread

Wow nice find there too!

 

[Yanks2151]

How do you find these Bernie's!?!?!
My goodness

lol, I got my first one in 1998. After that I was hooked. 16 years of this serial number obsession. You have not seen anything yet. I have well over 100 Bernie 51/ numbered cards. It just takes everything I have to get scanning them. My O'neills are even crazier. Sometimes I wish I was like most everyone else and not care which number I owned.

I hope no one else here was bidding on this, especially since I literally stole this at the last second. Had the page open on the computer, then forgot as I was talking to my girlfriend. Remembered with about 30 seconds left, threw in two quick bids, and now it's mine:

Recent Nomar pick ups from the early 00s:

Also, the only Edgardo Alfonso card in my PC:

Stole? What do they normally go for? I got my Bags for like $40ish. Hard to believe a Glaus would go for more.

EDITED TO ADD: I realize that may have sounded horribly rude. Not my intent. What I mean to ask is...are these getting even pricier?

I meant stole more in the sense that I jumped in with just a few seconds left. Hard to really tell what prices should be on these; I don't recall seeing a Glaus before so I had no history to go by. As a whole, these don't seem to be getting much easier to find.

Wow, congrats on the Nomar Triple Crown!

 

[Yanks2151]

I can relate to this desire-- I have a similar serial # obsession but with buttons of my player sadly

This one is not yet slabbed but in the hopper to be protected down the line

Wow, that is impressive!

Nabbed the last of the five tough insert refractors numbered 100 or under from 1998-2000 that were made for Vladdy.

The "toughie refractor" lineup: 98 Centurion /75, 99 Early Road to the Hall /100, 99 Fortune 15 /100, 00 Allegiance /100, and 00 Chrome Kings /92.

Now my focus will shift to the tough refractor parallels - golds and atomics from his Expo years.

Cool! I've never even seen a Bags early road to the hall refractor. I figured I'd see one at least as I've been looking forever but so far no dice.

 

[Calripkenjrcollector]

Nice one. Here's mine.

 

[bobthewondercat77]

Awesome Vlads. The Chrome Kings is the best of the lot IMO and it gets the least "attention"

[gracecollector]

Nice one. Here's mine.

Just me, or is that not the standard font for serial numbering on those? I'll have to scan the back of mine. Thought the stamping looks like the font on the Bernie.

I was wondering the same as well. It seems the numbering should also be within that little box too.

Phenomenal run of Clemens buttons!

 

[gradedeflator]

fantastic and beautiful run of cards. congrats and thanks for sharing!

p.s. I'm quoting all the scans because they are so amazing to look at!
