I just wanted to welcome to the club Mr. Len. Not only has he finally completed his set he has taken the top spot, and as much as I hate letting it go, at least now it's a fair fight between the two of us. Good job Len. Now I just need to sell my wife's kidney and go pick up a 10 Lotus. Hehe. image

Seriously, beautiful set Len.

    Not wishing to be a killjoy, but technically accordng to the registry you are both jointly equal number 1. :-)

    I think congratulations to both of you are in order!

    Unfortunately, it hasn't been kind enough to grant me number 2 in the mean time, but you can't have everything I suppose ...

    Thanks guys!

    Technically speaking though Michael, I have Jake crushed by 9 one thousandths of a percentage point at this time image I figure we can play leap frog to the top each time we upgrade a single item from here out! And Jake, no fair selling off the wife's organs to upgrade. Rules clearly state the kidney you sell must be your own.

    Now to get rid of those ugly 8's........

    Congrats Len - very nice set!!!

    I was looking through yours and Jake's sets and I noticed the .5 grades in Jake's set - Jacob, were those bumps or did you submit new cards? Either way very nice image

    Ah, OK ... I stand corrected! In which case I shall divert my congratulations entirely to you Len!

    I reserve the right not to congratuate the new #1 each time you swap over from now on though.. lol

    If you could kindly upgrade some of your 9s as well and let me have them for my set, that would be appreciated. :-)

    That's great!

    You realise between the top 5 sets, we know own ~0.5% of the Alpha rares ever produced? image

    And it looks like a 6th set is pretty close to being complete too!

  • Tap4blackTap4black Posts: 214
    Gratz Bastien! Hope that upgrade I sent ya makes it to you soon so you'll have 1 less 7 to worry about.

    Congrats. to Len and Bastien. I've got a long way to go.

    Len- Thanks for the email. I just got back in town, but will email you this weekend.

    Jared- I will update my guesses on the alpha starters this weekend as well.

    Anyone know what an alpha psa 10 lotus would go for? I saw one with Highgrade at 15k. Any others around?

    -will
