I think the 2006 Clemens chromes are marked refractor on the back.

I just put my set in a binders....all cards, including a black back set, and the three insert sets. They all fit nice in a 1-1/2 inch binder. I cut out the front of a wrapper and put that on the spine. Not a bad little set. If topps keeps the production the same for next years heritage then we will all be plenty happy! Anyone doing chrome, GU or autos sets on update? This thread needs more scans!
More scans, heh. Here's my 2008 trade list. I still need a few chromes from the base set (C42 Magglio Ordonez, C80 Ken Griffey Jr., and C100 Alex Rodriguez), and I'm always looking for refractors, black refractors, and autos. If you see anything you need, let me know via PM. I'll tack on all the goodies I've picked up from Update at the end of my post.
And I won this piece of garbage tonight. Really excited about adding some higher end cards along with my common Real Ones, hope you guys will appreciate seeing it. I was the underbidder on an 03 Aaron Red Ink last night, but winning this one made me forget all about it!
Nice pick up! The 2003 Aaron is still on my wantlist. Did you pull the Schultz and Kaat out of the same case..those were my two autos (both blue ink). LMK if you want to trade.
anyone else having trouble pulling autos from this and topps products? everytime i get a box that says 1 relic or auto its almost always a relic.I want autos.The only auto i pulled from high number or reg her this year was from a blaster box!
I have the completed checklist of Ad Panels, for anyone who may want it. Shoot me a PM with your e-mail addy and I'll send it to you (it's in an Excel spreadsheet). It may not happen right away, as I am about to head out for the evening, but I will get it to you.
The guy with the one for $10K pulled his auction. Mine is the only one listed now.

Having not opened anything since A&G, I'm dying here - the seller I bought my case from took 8 days after I paid to even ship, and now the estimated UPS delivery is Dec 17th! Ahhhhhhhh. I wish I could blame that on Geordie too...

You need to go out and get some "while your waiting on your case" boxes. I have seen more huge pulls here on boxes that were supposed to hold collectors off until the big one came. If you wiff you can blame that on Geordie!
I am kind of sad I didnt get in on this but I guess since I didnt go after the orginal set it doesnt make sense. I have purchased some blasters and will post what I have and would be willing to trade for 08 A&G.
Its never too late to jump the heritage bandwagon, and while some of the older wax is kinda expensive, the past few years still have affordable boxes if you decide you like them. There should be plenty of A&G floating around, let us know what you get and good luck!

That's not a bad plan, but my schedule these days generally forces me to become a virtual/on-line shopper exclusively, so I'm reliant on the mercy of shipping/delivery, etc. I think me asking my wife to pick up some boxes would have more downside risk than upside reward even considering the prospect of a huge pull...

funny you should say that, while "a few boxes to hold me over" is the #1 cause for huge pulls, the #2 cause is..."wife picked me up a few boxes"
no pressure, Im sure the mailman will be around sometime soon!
Could be wrong but I thought a saw a Thomas jersey - maybe in this thread - but maybe it was a bat too. I don't know, forget i was here. Same photo though
Haven't cracked any hi#s lately, but just finished a deal for hammondtroy's (ebay id) complete heritage inventory (he's getting out of the game). Well over 32 3200ct. boxes full of base cards, in addition to thousands of sp's, hundreds of relics, and ~500 chromes...all from 2002-2006. No autos, Kevin! So thats got me pretty busy.
Did go to a show a few weeks back and picked up 2 hobby wax boxes (an 03 and an 05) for a combined $140....all your recent pulls made me want to post these bad boys:

Wow! No kidding? I'm still kicking myself I didn't pick up his chrome sets he listed about a month ago!

Tell me he isn't shipping 300 pounds of heritage to you? If I would of known you were in the business I would of sold you all my heritage, I actually still have all my SP's and chromes from 01-08. Did Hammond say why he is getting out?
Did you pull that Willie Mays recently? That is my dream card. Love to see a pic
By the way, I met Matt (HammondTroy) outside binghamton ny, last saturday...a great guy. He is getting out of the game, but keeping his 01 master set (which has ALL the autos except the matthews which doesn't exist). It was a vanful of cards, i tell ya....I still have the sp's coming, but I already had a good stockpile of them before I even did this deal. As far as being in the business, I only buy and sell heritage and a&G and only online - no shows or anything. I still like to trade with all you guys so i don't like to promote my business angle here - just doesn't feel appropriate. That being said, if anyone needs anything heritage (besides autos), let me know. I have done lots of trades and lots of outright sales to folks on the boards here too.
By the way, I picked up a gordon cutout a few months back for next to nothing...it was part of another deal.
So Zep, I have tons of 06 sp's etc, available, just let me know what you need...we'll work something out.
Troy is getting out because i think he is burned out, refocusing on t205, has a new baby, and needs the space. He actually quit buying new product in 06.
Thanks again for the Yogi. It is getting along nicely with the rest of the set.
So you are saying that Matt doesn't have anything left, as far as autographs? I bought a Classic Renditions Bonds auto a few months ago and he had some really nice stuff he was listing, I really wanted to buy it all but there was no volume discount.
Joseph, great to see you here, a great group of traders. glad you're enjoying the yogi! glad it went to a board member. Matt had a lot of about 9 yogi heritage autos on ebay a week or so ago.
Matt still has his 01 master set (including all known autos) and probably has a few autos from the other years too.
Ooooh, nice pull zep. Do me a favor and don't put it on ebay until Thursday.
