Love the late 1990s stuff....for a while, that was a dead area to collect, but it seems like it is making a comeback.!SumoMenkoManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17461389544030702085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8125863439745900937.post-38753630972378601332019-08-13T13:04:58.236-07:002019-08-13T13:04:58.236-07:00Cool post card set!

Those coins are cool too.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8125863439745900937.post-51363086277514567082019-08-13T11:02:54.233-07:002019-08-13T11:02:54.233-07:00Thank you, Adam!

Crack that thing open and put them in your PCs. <br />3. The reason that set is expense on COMC is two reasons. It was very expensive when it came out even though it was unpopular. (very expensive for the time that is) The parallels were also very confusing. If I remember right it came with only 2 or 3 cards and 1 coin per pack and it was released right about the same time as SPX and Totally Certified. So not only was it a pain to store it was the least popular of the "expensive stuff". If you decide to chase it don't buy them from COMC. COMC charges an extra fee to list irregular sized items so all the coins there are overpriced. Try Sportlots.com instead. (but use the pictures form COMC to make sure you are getting the correct parallels.) But don't just search for them. You need to search by seller, it's cheaper this way. Select Preferred Sellers at the top and then choose one of the Double Blue Star Sellers. (These are the sellers with the biggest inventory so more likely to have multiple coins or other cards you want) I did it and choose WESTLAKE just now because I have bought from them multiple times. They have 20 different Brass coins in stock with Griffey being the most expensive at $2. (Andrew Jones is only .18) I only searched this one seller, others may have more but if you stick to one seller you pay one shipping cost. (Shipping is cheap too. The more you buy the cheaper the shipping is) The only drawback is the lack of pictures.

And as Greg already mentioned, they make postcard pages, the 4-pocket pages are for standard sized postcards, while the 3-pocket's are for slightly larger postcards. As for the holograms, I'd say just add them to your player collections. I hadn't ever seen those before either, and now I want some! :)Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13043468725408104535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8125863439745900937.post-49175940835268137642019-08-12T12:54:02.020-07:002019-08-12T12:54:02.020-07:00Thanks for the input, Greg!Thanks for the input, Greg!Trevor Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09207010676916110937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8125863439745900937.post-78336209432532906282019-08-12T12:39:27.805-07:002019-08-12T12:39:27.805-07:00There should be a standard size plastic sheet for ...There should be a standard size plastic sheet for the postcards as they are. Probably three- or four-pocket type.<br /><br />If those three guys are PCs, then finishing the set would mean you would need second copies of the ones you have. Pass.<br /><br />Since the big guns are all left to get, I'd pick one series, (plain, gold or bronze) and complete that run using the others as trade bait for them.GCAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14713246271197550543noreply@blogger.com
