Sorry for creating a new thread but I couldn't add one to the original thread.

The winner will be decided by their peers image

I sincerely appreciate the ideas and it was a difficult decision. They were all fantatic suggestions.

Having said that, I picked based upon what I would want to get outside of the sets I'm working on.

Again, thank you to all of you who entered and good luck!

    I like CDsNuts choices, who I voted for.....however, can I suggest if you go that way to trade the Koufax for a Nolan Ryan rookie.

    I voted for me because I like my opinions. Also, tennessee's choices whould be automatically disqualified because Frank Gifford is a dufus. I like his other choices though.

    He had to choose to be with her before he could ever cheat on her. Also, he didn't cheat enough. I don't know how much he cheated, but it definitely wasn't enough.

    I went with all big name 55 Topps AA, which is the set your working on the most and appear to not have yet which would make a major dent in that set, along with Aaron, Bench, and Dr. J rookies which are arguably the best at their respective positions ever, and a Killebrew rookie thrown in just because it is incredibly cheap and a nice looking card. Oh well, off to Ebay I go to console myself for getting beat out by some other great suggestions sniff boo hoo

    Oh yeah, and I voted for Lee too.

    drewsef, you made some fantastic suggestions. Unfortunately, I was/am looking for some cards outside of my sets.

    Trust me, the ones you mentioned will be eventually snatched up and put in my registry image
