Wow, what link do you hit???
Also, I plan on peeling the film off the cards before I put them in my binder with the bronze sets; I hope you guys don't think that's sacrilege.

Those finest cards look much better without that film.

<< <i> And from that spare Palmeiro refractor that was included, I can now understand why jmbkb4 loves 1993 refractors so much, but I'd still rather have all the 1970s Topps baseball and football sets for $20K.

Hi Estil,
It makes my stomach hurt that you think I paid $20,000 for my sets. I take pride in the fact that at least 98% of all my PSA 10s were gotten in trades or through my own subs. I'd say I've probably got $2,500-3,000 in my mostly PSA 10 set and about 1/3 that in my PSA 9 and 10 set.
I think you need #79 Puckett as well. I didn't see that one listed in the ebay listing.
Just a heads up from a Puckett collector.
Mike
Kirby Puckett Master Set
