Bought a 1993 Topps Refractor...

jgarci11 · February 15, 2007 12:02PM

...from DoctorDaddy again today, bringing my RAW Mcgwire 1993 Refractor total to 20!! Added together with my graded Mcgwire Refractor 1993s and I have 30 now!! How is everybody else's refractor hunt going? Write me and let me know!! Later, and 'member...'Keep Cornerin'!"

jojowest · February 15, 2007 12:08PM

I have 31 Mcgwires and counting.

RipublicaninMass · February 15, 2007 12:17PM

With all the hype I bought a raw Boggs refreactor on ebay. Looks like a dead 9 or possible 10! I wouldn't mind picking up some raw ones for 30 bucks and selling 9's for 200+

jgarci11 · February 15, 2007 12:19PM

so jo are your imaginary refractors raw or graded?

yankeeno7 · February 15, 2007 1:23PM

I have 36 refractor McGwires all graded. 4 PSA 8, 20 PSA 9, 12 PSA 10

Guess that blows the lid off your cornering the McGwire refractor market.

cohocorp · February 15, 2007 11:54PM

congrats on your addition. you really dig those refractors.

stown · February 16, 2007 12:04AM

No offense but beckett dot com would probably be better suited for you IMO.

cohocorp · February 16, 2007 12:09AM

how rare are those things? i thought i heard somewhere that there are about 1000 +/- due to backdooring. if i was going to pump money into something, at least it would be fairly rare, very high demand, or a proven track record over decades. i thought when it comes to modern stuff, 100 or less is rare, but thats just me. what do i know. good luck with your venture. alot of eggs in one basket though. i think trying to pump the issue (as you did in your other threads) will backfire--it displays a lack of character. btw, how old are you??

stown · February 16, 2007 8:49AM

Good but long read.

cohocorp · February 16, 2007 9:02AM

i saw that before. its just silly

Stone193 · February 16, 2007 9:06AM

What is the estimate of total refractors?

I thought I remember like 40 or 41?

SoFLPhillyFan · February 16, 2007 9:25AM

Bought four 93 McGwire Refractors last week, cut them up and flushed 'em down the johnny!

Next time I won't tell anyone unless they pay a handsome sum for the info.

I figure there's more satisfaction in holding the market hostage than cornering it.

Guess how many are left now!

stown · February 16, 2007 10:22AM

I just used one for toilet paper

cohocorp · February 16, 2007 10:25AM

stone- initially topps claimed 241 of each. its probably more like 1000 of each. they arent rare and this guy always tries to hype them as he did in his other thread. he claims he is trying to corner the mcgwire market. the problem is demand and he cant artificially inflate that.

Have plenty, with aloe too boot.

I was just taking one out of circulation and circulating it elsewhere.

yankeeno7 · February 16, 2007 10:35AM

I had one injected into me and now it's circulating in my bloodstream.

Be sure to stay out of the sun for the next week. You may cause others to experience temporary blindness

yankeeno7 · February 16, 2007 10:41AM

Well, it is a problem I have. I have injected many many 1993 refractors. I think my family is planning an intervention on me. A producer from Dr Phil called and I think they are going to force me into a treatment center at Topps Company.

XanaduNow · February 16, 2007 10:41AM

I put three into an unmanned probe and launched them into outer space.

Guys, I don't wanna get everybody in an uproar, but I just busted 10 cases of 1993 Finest and every box had a McGwire refractor. So I did what any sane-minded individual would do and I melted them all down and built a "Super Refractor" of McGwire that measures 6 feet by 10 feet. Here's my friend Oscar standing in front of it:

Wow, those guys are some hardcore straight up gangstas. Where can I find the "Gay Striped Shirt Store" they all shop at. I also like thier hair, but what are the odds that they would all get struck by lightning?

I don't know where to start...

I bet one of them is Tinkerbell's boyfriend.

A toss up for me. Either a promo pic from the 80s movie "The Lost Boys" or "Growin' Up Gotti." Perhaps "Throwin' Up Gotti."

Hey watch the midget jokes. I married one.

They come in handy at the most opportune moments.

No she does no wrestle or let people toss her.

Of course I jest. She's 5' 1" or 2".

Just outside of midget range. But then again what constitutes a midget and what is a dwarf?

Good topic since America loves freaks.

I know a guy in law enforcement, a SWAT member who is completely weirded out by midgets. He comes unglued at the sight of them. Dress one up in a clown outfit and he's out the door screaming.

ToppsCo1lector · February 20, 2007 9:35AM

We had a midget that came in handy during my frat days. She was short enough to run full speed under our beer pong table and retrieve the balls. It was handy until she had a couple in her, then she gotta bit clumsy.

lawnmowerman · February 20, 2007 9:54AM

I don't even want to know how he found that.
