New to the Registry

Hi All,

My apologies in advance if these questions have already been answered but I would appreciate the help from board members.

I have requested a player set for Graig Nettles and was wondering how long it usually takes before the set goes live (I had requested it quite some time ago and it still #12 on the request list for players)?

Also, for the player sets do they include any or all of the following: OPC issues, team leader cards and modern issues that feature retired players?

Thank you in advance for any help answering these questions.

Welcome, Patrick. I'll answer your question in an indirect way: you can speed up the addition of a player set significantly by e-mailing BJ a spreadsheet with the cards and suggested weightings listed. It'll still take a couple of months, most likely. Yes, they include OPC and team leader cards on player master sets, but not on basic sets (generally). If a card is issued after the player's playing days, it's not eligible for either set.

Joe,

Thank you for the reply, I appreciate it.


PC,

Regarding the Nettles game used card I am only collecting cards of his for the registry but thank you anyway.

Patrick,

Best way to make sure that you're thinking is along the same lines as what PSA has already done is to grab a Player Set thats already up there for somebody who's career runs along roughly the same timeline as Nettles (Luzinski, Carew and Garvey are 3 that come to mind). Take a look at whats been done for both Basic and Master Sets and put in the appropriate Nettles cards - making sure that if Nettles is in a set that these guys are not and its fairly mainstream, you might want to include it.

Oh! It also helps if you can rope 1 or 2 of your friends into putting in a request for the same set!

Good luck and welcome to the boards!!!
