sweet!

ok, some of yall might not care, but I just snagged a 1989 Ron Gant Starting LineUp figure.. i've been wanting one since they came out, and I've never seen one in person.. theres one that pops up on ebay once in awhile, but the same dude has listed it 6 or 7 times and his reserve is NEVER MET.. (ive seen it be bid up to $70.00 and not sell because of the reserve).. i got this one for $28.00.. description says it has a little price sticker residue, and some wear on the bottom edge.. but I'M HAPPY!!

    Congratulations! It just goes to show what deals there are to be had on eBay if you have the patience.

    Nice! Should you want to remove it, the price sticker residue
    comes right off with a little WD-40.

    thanks.. i figured rubbing alcohol might remove it, but i dont know if it would hurt the package or not.. i'll try the WD-40..

  • rubbing alcohol is good on marker and ink...not so great on glue

    rubbing alcohol would probably take the color off the package before it took the glue off...especially since those SLUs packages weren't very glossy

    There's a product called Goo Gone, has a citrusy kind of smell, cleans off sticker residue without damaging the plastic.

    I love those things!!! I've got boxes of them! I DO care! The 88's and 89's are great! Altho not as popular, a few of my favorites are my 90 Griffey sliding, 91 Jordan and my 93 O'neal. Altho I don't collect Hockey or racing, I do have some first year stuff. So, you ain't alone!
