Question for you guys into the rare backs....what would you be willing to pay for a Tinker (bat off shoulder) in a PSA 2 with a rare black lenox back?? I know these backs go for a premium, and there was the common T206 yesterday in a PSA 3 that went for $500 some odd dollard with a black lenox back?
My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)
I did but I want to make sure I know how to use it. Is it basically a group e-mail address that if you have/are looking for a card you can just kick an e-mail to the group?
I do have some cards I'll be offering to the "group members" probably later this week on a first come first serve basis before offering to anyone else...or before throwing to the wolves at ebay
lajoies are really tough to get at a a reasonable price. I have yet to find a lajoie card with eye appeal at the prices i buy at. It seems he's just one step behind the big HOF'ers (Cobb, johnson, mathewson) and a few steps above the rest (Walsh, Collins, Joss).
I would create another pricing category with guys like evers, tinker and brown...but, it appears lajoie cards go even more than those guys.
<< <i>Sent you a PM asking for an invite. Never heard back. Maybe i'm not cool enough or something. >>
I did send the invite. I sent an invite to all those who requested to be in the group. And i ask above, twice, if anyone did or did not receive an invite.
I will send all the invites out again, just in case you didnt get one already.

I think mine may have gone to my Junk Mail originally, so maybe that's why some people didn't get theirs?
MD, Did you do it by PM or email? If it was by email maybe i overlooked it. Didn't find anything in my PM box. I did send you a pm awhile back though. Thanks
I've heeded your advice....................eye appeal is the most important thing regardless of the grade. I am absolutely ecstatic about the Waddell (and I think I got a pretty good deal to boot as that card can garner a strong price)
Joined the group today, guys. Also have two new additions. I actually already had both a Mattern and a Konetchy Glove High, but my old Mattern has tape on back (beautiful front, though, if anybody needs one) and I can't resist Hindu backs - especially on St. Louisans.
Dave Congratulations on your Big Train pickup, it's really nice looking. The three cards that I want really bad from this set are a Chase Pink Portrait, Evers Portrait and that card. Congrats again.
A couple commons but with nice stories. I picked up this Doyle off of Beckett for $25! The guy listed the cert # and was very responsive to e-mails which alleviated some of my concerns about getting scammed. I paid through paypal so I wasn't all that worried especially given the amount of money involved. The card arrived Saturday, it's nice to get a "deal" every now and then.
Bought this card off ebay for $26, no mention in the auction of what kind of back it was and much to my surprise it's a nice clean Old Mill.
That Doyle looks like a horrible 4, but the card itself is still a decent buy for $25. And it's always nice to receive a card whose non-Piedmont/non-Sweet Caporal back is an unexpected surprise. Ya done good.
My humble T206 set officially went 50% complete today!!
It's been an incredible journey which I wouldn't trade for anything. Thanks all for carrying the torch of this thread forward, and for the encouragement along the way. On to the much tougher half

It wasn't, it was from a guy on the Net 54 board.

Does anyone here have any to share?

Yep. Use it as a tool to facillitate t206 sales and trades.
Thats a really nice clean Back on that Hundu. A really nice addition!
Congrats!

Some others:
No back damage, I keep looking at it trying to figure out why it's only a 2.

Lamont - Nice deal on nice cards as well; especially a PSA 4 for that price.

My T206 set
Thanks.

All I can say is wow and congratulations. I think I'm at a little under 10% right now. You have an impressive collection.
Steve
Thanks for the kind words. The Doyle is pretty presentable but I agree that it might be a tad overgraded, however I've seen 4's that are worse.
I just picked up this Gibson. I think it might be my favorite card as of right now. Not sure why but I think the image is cool.
Thanks.
Scott
This one has an MK....light pencil mark at the top....shoot, could have easily been erased before being submitted...lol At any rate...$47.
This one in the end cost me $15.50....
A pair of the southern leaguers I had sent in...these two I'm keeping and not selling...
