Curious about the rare, mysterious and beautiful 1951 Wheaties Premium Photos?

Nope not planning on it. Wake me up when it's down to 20 even then most of registry stuff I had queued ain't worth it per card. Sad aspect of the bubble is registry collecting of lower value cards like 70's-80s's Non-Sport's (non Marvel, non Star Wars) is now critically endangered if not already extinct.
Registry collectors fueled PSA coffers for a decade during their leaner times now those collectors have all been metaphorically fisted. I have a looong memory.
PSA should allow registry set builders get a economy rate or we will never be able to finish our sets and this taking the fun out of collecting
I built this monster largely on the spine of $5 bulk specials once upon a time. I couldn't fathom tackling anything like this again given the current environment. It would cost $36,300 to grade this whole set today and everyone of them has to be a NINE or better 'cuz that's what this set is. Y I K E S

I would prefer to be able to submit more at the $20-25 range for a 6 month wait than $50 submissions for a three month wait.
Which 1975 cards are you looking for specifically?
I haven't looked lately but I had a number of commons and a couple of stars needed. Maybe close to 50 cards though. Waiting for my Brett and Yount to come back from "the logjam."
Gretzky,Ripken, and Sandberg collection. Still trying to complete 1975 Topps baseball set from when I was a kid.

One out of four lotteries for me after spending close to seven hours in pursuit of a golden ticket.
Starting positions were 1750-sorry, 2980-try again, 2473-next time maybe, 2239-Golden Allocation Ticket!
