Sad Sad Sad day for me

I have to sell my 1972 Topps set. I have spent 2 1/2 years putting it together. I have come up on some financial needs that are more of a priority than this set. I really wanted to sell the set and buy more Packer cards but I can't do that right now. So, if you want a set that is 96% PSA 8 or better go to this link and bid away.

If for some reason I don't get the reserve I will sell it out separatley to board memebers. I will keep you all informed if the reserve is not met for those HOF rookie collectors.

I know the Rayfield Wright is a tough one and so is Ron Yary to come by in 8 or better.

  • Troy,

    Very sorry to hear about this. Coming from a 72's set collector you know I know. Good luck.

    I'm sorry to see this for several reasons.

    This is a beautiful set. It's the only one I have any serious interest in collecting a lot of cards from, and I know a little bit about how hard it is to find some of these in high grade. I also feel, ever so slightly, that I'm a part of it because Troy was kind enough to sell me his PSA 7 Yary rookie when he upgraded.

    Mostly, I just hate to see real life concerns intrude on someone's collectiing.

    A set similar to this one went for a little over 2 grand a few months ago. Hope you make out at least as well with this one.

    I'm operating from memory here. I don't have the auction bookmarked or anything. I may have undercredited the amount.

    Troy,

    Sorry to hear that you have to sell. But, it sounds like you've put cards in perspective compared to the rest of your life. Hope it brings what you expect and more. Best of luck.
