What registries are you #1 in?

I'm #1 in the Orlando Cepeda Master Set (because no one else has registered a set) and in the Don Drysdale Master Set (because several people whose Drysdale Basic Sets beat my Master Set have not registered in the Master Set).

I recently did a search on these boards for "1965 embossed" and, if I remember correctly, your name came up on several posts. With that in mind, I am #1 on the 1965 Topps Embossed registry. Although it is not a popular set, I am surprised that there is only 1 other set registered.
I hadn't realized just how unpopular (or tough) that set is, until I searched eBay right now, and came across 3 Banks and 1 Clemente as the sum total for a search of psa embossed.

1976 Wonder Football, although not for long. A full set sold on ebay that's higher than mine, just not registered yet. Someone paid over $700 for that set!

I am the top dog in two large major sets produced by the leading makers of sportscards.
I am sure you all are taken with envy over my outstanding 1982 Donruss baseball and 1987 Topps baseball sets. Both truly rare and extremely tough to get. Many go after such as 52 Topps or 53 Bowman or even 56 Topps, but don't have the guts to pursue these monster-size beauties as I have done so powerfully. Anyone can easily start a Ted Williams player set or a 1951 Bowman baseball set, but lack the collecting skill and fortitude to even try the amazing 82 Donruss or the monumental 87 Topps.
Of course it helps that there are only a few other knuckleheads goofy enough to collect these two sets. The fact that I am number one , along with 50 cents, will give me the honor of getting the daily paper.
Regards,
Greg M.

For insurance purposes I do have scans of each and every one. But the sets aren't to hard to find on the registry,not even for you. Just go ;look for any and everything you can't afford and there you will find them!

Brian,
Why do you always have to be such an arrogant ass? I just like to share my collecting enjoyment with other collectors who choose to read and post here.
It's too bad that you see everything as a competition. Your attitude towards other collectors really sucks! It's not all about who can afford the most cards. I know that you have a lot to share - that's why I posted - hoping you'd share something. I guess I was wrong again to assume that you had anything other than belittling others on your mind when you posted.
For anyone interested, here is my Pre-WW1 #1 set. All cards are scanned, front and back, for your viewing pleasure!

The competitive child is actually YOU or you would never have wrote the sideways cheap shot santimonious and condescending comment above I responded to. You might wish to speak for yourself or not at all as to feelings of other's. It's not your concern. Furthermore,read my e-mail I sent you. I told you if you had an issue to clear it up but being a big boy behind a computer scrreen you choose to call me names instead. I will report it to the moderators and let them deal with you on this stuff.
<< <i>Not one time have I ever stuped to getting in on one of these name-calling tyraids, until now. I have to agree with JEB, way too many posts by you-know-who concentrated on belittling someone else. I have no #1 sets, and might not ever, but does that mean I'm less of a collector? No. Money doesn't make you the best, or coolest, or God-Almighty. It does different things to different people, some it obviously makes into an ass. Let people enjoy their cards and the cards of others, without trying to state how superior you are. Wow, 6 #1's. Congratulations, really. As a fan of cards, it's people like JEB, that make it enjoyable. We've had a couple of transactions, but that isn't even what I mean. Look at his sets. Really look at them. Pride is what makes a man waste tons of time on scanning in each card and including a little story for each, and nothing else. I would much rather browse through his sets than all those sitting at #1 with just a grade beside them, all because you can unconciusly write out checks. >>
Maybe JEB can make personal attacks to you on a public board and thus make it "enjoyable". I merely know he knows all about what I have and had no good intentions in his cheap shot and proved it with the follw up. My original comment was simple. I have some number 1 listed sets.Nothing about money or even the cards themselves was mentioned. The RULES are simple-you cannot write as he has on here regardless. I have reported it!

This is the most whinyest and sissified excuse I've ever encountered. Two months ago you were ridiculing DGF's 77 set. Now your at it again, this time with Jason. I can take kidding, satire, etc. from the best of them but your obnoxiousness and arrogance hits below the waist line. JEB is as good as they come to the forum and collecting community, and you do a great disservice to the collecting public by rankling feathers instead of educating with your knowledge.
Please don't PM me about this either. I know why you choose the path you take; I just don't approve or agree with it. You can bet the vast majority of others feel the same way...........

How many can you afford? Opps! here it comes....nuff said. I left you my e-mail address but I guess you need to continue to post on here so it's all you. I'm done with this thread.

I just thought I'd drop you a reminder to report me to the moderators. I haven't heard from them yet.
Best of luck with your collection!

Those 7s and 8s are incredible; thanks for the link and congrats on a truly first class set.

But you can't do that privately as it would mean standing alone in confidence. I suspect you have no wife or children or you would know better than to play these games. I wrote you but you'd rather broadcast your insults to gain a pat on the back. Your extremely competitive little buddie or it would not bother you what I write.

Well, I am not too familiar with rare coins, but I have heard that you have one of the finest card collections around.
After this thread started, I backed into #1 Current on the Bench Master Set because the leader dropped out. A sad loss. He's still #1 All-Time (retired), and I won't consider myself #1 until I pass him there. Which I will, unless he changes his mind and comes back. (nudge, nudge)
<< <i>I have poured 2 million dollars into the set registry hobby! >>
Yikes marz!! I hope you are talking about Jamaican dollars and not US.
I'll bet Marz has one of the top collections in the entire hobby!
<< <i>I'll bet Marz has one of the top collections in the entire hobby! >>
He has a nice collection but it is not even close to one of the top. There is also no way he has 2 mill into it nor is it worth anything near 2 mill. If he did actually pay 2 mill for what he has listed he got taken.
