A few years ago I put together the complete 2003 Donruss Team Heroes Timeline Threads Jersey Card set (see it here). The key card in the set is the Stan Musial jersey #/42. Nice card featuring a swatch from a jersey actually worn his rookie year. Card is unpriced in Beckett due to scarcity. When I put the set together, it was a hard one to find but I got the one below for around $60.
Sometimes I look on eBay for upgrades to the set (some cards had patch pieces). I saw today that Burbank had a bunch of them listed. Nolan Ryan #/101 is listed at $111, Al Kaline #/64 is listed at $55.50, Andruw Jones #/96 is at $61.75, Mike Schmidt #/81 is at $88.80. But the Musial was listed with a BIN of $24.79. I snapped it up at that price. Heck, Lance Berkman #/102 was listed at $24.79.
I hope I receive the card. If I do, I think I'll have actually got the better of Burbank. Yes! It makes up for the one card I want from them that they have overpriced by 50% that I refuse to buy, and their curt emails to me that "Our price is our price" when I offered 110% of Beckett BV for it.
