KING - I don't think it's his set, but maybe Zardoz kan konfirm this himself.

GATOR5 · January 10, 2003 12:50PM

Gemmint,

You always tend to make me giggle in the wee hrs of the morning..Usually tend to spit up some
beer every so often in laughter...

Matt

KING KELLOGG · January 10, 2003 3:38PM

GEMMINTMAN...

I looked at the spelling on the new Registry listing and it was spelled "Zardo's"...

I thought maybe Z just got off one of those "Vegas" business trips (Hmmm...) and was too tired to punch in the right name...

ZARDOZ...are 'ya out there???.....

This new set comes in with about 90% or so complete...Pretty big opening for somebody....

We'll find out soon..

Larry

Matt Good luck on the Kellogg'sand thank you for the purchases. I have ran into a roadblock with some. I still need 6 to complete in nine or better. I am holding my ground on the nines. The eights are avalible but I think I will wait. Good luck with the ice it should be firming up for you to cover the whole lake. May all your pike be over 35.

Gemmintman Great nab on the Simpson 10.I believe that was a one of one. I bid 200 but I didnt think I would get it.

Larry just submitted 300 kellogg's from 73 to 83. Will let you know how they come out. Thanks for the great deal on the nines and the christmas present it cracked up my wife. Now she is using it . I told her only Kellogg's cerial can be used in it. You truly are the King!!!

Hi gang

No, this set is not mine. It belongs to a hard-core VINTAGE collector that I have done a lot of business with. Named his set in honor of me!!!!! Now that's a true VINTAGE collector for you!!!!!

Stump. Great Job!!!!!!!

thegemmintman · January 11, 2003 3:40AM

Thanks Stump. I thought the OJ Simpson 10 would go a good deal higher so I was pleased with the price. It's a 1 0f 1, and the only other 1970 "rookie" card of his in a PSA 10 is his 1970 Topps card, also a 1 of 1.

For the record as I've already told a few people, I do not intend to collect the '70 Kellogg's football set at this time. I really only wanted the OJ, but I reserve the right to take a stab at certain 10's down the road if interested. There, you football freaks can all rest easier now

.

I inadvertently made an OJ pun when I said "stab", honest.

Stump · January 11, 2003 4:37AM

Gemmint--Well I for one am glad you are not going for the set. I have decided to make the set. I already have the Simpson in nine so I really did feel the need to be aggresive.

Dave

LuxuryWines · January 11, 2003 2:13PM

Gem Mint any credence to the rumor that you have hired Johnny Cochrane as your spokesperson? I hear he is already came up with a new tagline for you:

" If it is a Kellogg's 10 Gemmint Must Bid Again"

thegemmintman · January 11, 2003 3:05PM

LMAO Luxury!

Actually Johnny Kochrane told me -

"If the grade don't fit, you must resubmit."

yawie99 · January 11, 2003 3:34PM

that is hilarious.

zardoz51 · January 11, 2003 6:35PM

"If the grade don't fit, you must resubmit."

We're talking quote of the year here folks, and we're not even halfway through the first month yet!!!!!!!!

Stump · January 11, 2003 9:55PM

I have a slogan on my 70 Kellogg's'

If its not a nine, I must decline.

For Gemmint its

If its not a ten, there will be no yen

Dave

thegemmintman · January 12, 2003 12:05AM

I love the Kellogg's slogan Stump!

I think we'll add that to the official Kellogg's Arkive of Information.

aconte · January 12, 2003 1:33AM

Hey can I jump in!!!

With red man cards

"If it's an eight then it's great!

"

They're greeeaaaaatttt.... nevermind....

Fabfrank · January 13, 2003 3:49AM

Hey GemMintman- Congrats also on the OJ 10. I was bidding on it too, but was out of the house when the auction ended and couldn't snipe. Good Price also. I finished the set in 9 and am looking to upgrade, but only at reasonable levels. Glad to hear you're not pursuing the set. Gives me at least a fighting chance on getting some 10's

KING KELLOGG · January 13, 2003 11:48AM

Gator5...

if its a bad pun then it's kelloggs fun

Caramels · January 15, 2003 3:18AM

I am Nephew Zardoz! Uncle Zardo bounced cards off his pot belly at me durring the holidays I had graded and registered under the kelloggs 70-3-D set! he gave them to me as a labor of love! Gemmint man pounced me out of the Horlen a few months ago but I have recovered from that and now have one I registered two days ago. maybe someone has a MATTY ALOU I need to complete the set in "mean old number nine' (multiplication Rock@)! For fun, I Registered two more sets just yesterday!
one from 1916 and one from 1951 topps! I already posted my measley 75 TOPPS MINI SET but am only 13th best! That will change tomorrow as I registered 20 more cards last night and have 50 more in PSA 9 to pull out of my safe. I decided to use the registry as a check list and to meet some more collectors! I am baby Zardo. My belly is tiny compared to Uncle Paul.My collection is tiny compared to Zardoman and GemmintMonster. Oh......! I have 75 PSA 9 72-Topps in mubers 600+. I was thinking of posting those as well but thought it might look weird that I only collected the "IA" cards and cards numbered over 600* What do you guys think? Should I post those anyway?

Zardacious Nephew

Basilone · January 15, 2003 4:19AM

zardoz51 · January 15, 2003 4:26AM

....and to think that all the years that I have spent disproving the alleged inbreeding within my family have now all gone to waste.

Register your other cards nephew/cousin/brother!!!

thegemmintman · January 15, 2003 4:46AM

Gemmintdaman welcomes Baby Zardo, LOL.

Remember to take your ZarDoze muscle relaxants next time before posting

Hmmmm. Warped sense of humor, registered 1916's, name is caramel. 'bout time you got over here "baby zardo"- looking forward to seeing those eggs on the registry!

Basilone · January 15, 2003 6:12AM

My guess is that Nipper finally saw the light and had a confessional with Zardoz.

John

Caramels · January 15, 2003 8:51AM

I did Uncle Paul. I registered about .005% of my certified cards! Remember,you gave me lots of cars over the years but they are not graded,except my you! I need you to give me about 20K * to have them in tombs!

Caramels · January 15, 2003 8:54AM

I just got your e-mail "Grif". Send me the prices on the cards discussed and prices i can live with. I will sell the lot for you!

Caramels · January 15, 2003 9:05AM

Go to the POP report and look at ALL of the E-92's (Croft's Candy & Cocoa) & all the E-96's and all the E-97 Briggs and M-101's. I am the warpo who owns the highest graded cards in eanch of the catagories as well as the accompanying sets in SGC holders of the highest grade. There are a dozen or so "regulars" on here I am certain I know from dealings in the past ten years. I have been collecting and trading cards since about 1967. That is when Uncle Zardo( Italian)gave me my first card of an EYEtalian baseball player. I think it was Mickey Manto!

Caramels · January 15, 2003 9:11AM

<< <i>I did Uncle Paul. I registered about .005% of my certified cards! Remember,you gave me lots of cars over the years but they are not graded,except my you! I need you to give me about 20K * to have them in tombs! >>

I meant CARDS OF COURSE!!!!!

Caramels · January 15, 2003 9:27AM

<< <i>Hmmmm. Warped sense of humor, registered 1916's, name is caramel. 'bout time you got over here "baby zardo"- looking forward to seeing those eggs on the registry! >>

I only registered a small handful. I still have 250 of the 568 I originally had from the "find"! I also sent 200 of them to SGC for grading originally! I have eggs all over the place....................they do not hatch!

ZARDOZ hits the bricks again...
