Mintacular's "Ron Burgundy" Sale: Update

Mintacular

I just bought a boat load of vintage baseball (literally 5,000+ cards) from the following years: '55-'75 and want to get a sense from the community which regulars are trying to fill some holes in these sets.

Most of the cards grade out VG-EXMT but there is a batch of mid sixties that are legitimate *hi-grade*. There aren't a ton of stars--those will be sold separately--but I have commons that I can sell at an extremely reasonable price. Here are some more specifics:

1. 1955s: Over (50) different PFG + a few better
2. 1956: Over (100) different VGEX avg.--some with punch holes will sell those ones dirt cheap
3. 1957-1959: Over (300) P/F/G and VG/VGEX/EX most '58s and '59s
4. 1960: (50) PFG and VG
5. 1961: (300+?) EX and EXMT or better--some really sharp ones
6. 1962: (300+?) EX and EXMT and better--some really sharp ones
7. 1963-1964 (50) EX avg.
8. 1965-1967 (100) NM or better *Hi Grade*--"pack fresh"
9. 1968 (500+) Condition ranges from PFG thru EXMT
10. 1969 (1,000?+) Condition ranges form PFG thru EXMT
11. 1970 (1,000?+) Condition PFG to EX
12. 1971 (300+) Most EX/EXMT
13. 1972 (1,000?) Some terrible PFG and others "pack fresh" NM or better, about half and half
14. 1973 (300+) VGEX/EX
15. 1974 (300+) EXMT
16. 1975 (100+) VGEX/EX
17. High-grade Maris '68--just a bit o/c
18. A batch of 60's commons (200+ that are lower grade)

These are ALL ESTIMATES for now and this thread will be edited tons of times. I bought these so cheap that I am willing to part with them way below "eBay prices." In general, any deals I would like to make here should be $25 or higher to make it worth my while. I think you could save a ton of $ this way if you have wish lists rather than going to shows where they try to charge you a $1/card for 50s-70's stuff or on eBay where you must pay shipping. JMO Thanks, Pat

Does the 88-89 Biggio Rookie Registry Set count?

MBMiller25

I am trying to acquire PSA 8's for the HOFers in the 1975 set to go along with my NM-NM/MT raw set.

Barfvader

I collect low grade crap because it's all I can afford.

Been working on a 74 set that's all over the place but they look decent in a binder. Down to 107 from the set and 8 more of the team checklists needed.

I would be interested in the 61, 62, and 68's. Let me know what you think. tshumake@columbus.rr.com. Thanks.

Mintacular

Thanks everybody, I have thousands of cards to go through and wish I could be more specific at this point but haven't gone through them all yet.

I tried to respond to the PMs but if I missed you or don't get back to you, feel free to PM me again. I also made a big buy in PGH and don't have the cards with me to give more details on those.

I am moving to PGH on WED basically so I might be able to get a few deals done before then, and if not, will catch you on the flip side once I get to the 'Burgh.

In sum, my overall strategy to selling cards is to tell you exactly what you are getting in words and pics so once I have the time to do that I would love to help out the community.

I do not practice the "got a bunch of old vintage cards, not sure what's here, any offers?" but will need some time to go through everything. For now, I just wanted to get a sense of what folks here are collecting, etc. & once I get organized I can PM those who might have interest...

Mintacular

Here's the Maris I mentioned, IMO a "7" or better.

EAsports

Tilt is going to hurt it. Chipping on the back left and "back-top" edges will as well.

But really, who cares what it grades? That's a great looking card!

PM me on the 1970 Topps!!!

Mintacular

Here are some of the freshest mid-sixties cards:

bigwilli

I am working on a 1960 Topps set in 7 and 8 and trying to work on the 1972 set in decent raw condition

Mintacular

Most of my 60's are rough, but I have a ton of fresh '72s.

bigwilli

well let me know what you got whenever you get through the cards . i would be interested

Mintacular

Ok Big Willi. PM me in a week if I don't get back to you...

If there is anybody out there that wants to make a major buy, I literally have between 5-8K? of 1955-1978 cards that I could sell as one bulk load, most of them commons and most of them ranging from lower condition thru EXMT according to PSA, with some NMs. At this point, I would say 20% are 50s cards, 40% 60s cards, and 40% 70s cards (with most of them '75 or earlier).

If I find an interested buyer, I can count them out, send pics etc, and if not, I will sell them piece-by-piece to the forum/eBay. There are some stars and a few high #'s but not many Clementes, Aarons, Mays, Mantles, etc.

Need about 60 cards and I'll be done w/ the '64 set. Contemplating doing one of the following sets(in this order): 65, 67, 63, 61.

lsutigers1973

I'm working on a collection of douchebags. Thankfully I have an extra Minatcular to trade if anyone is interested.

sfmays24

Hi Pat,

Let us know if you have any of these 1975 Topps (EX-MT or better):

208 1970 MVP's, 210 1972 MVP's, 228 George Brett, 622 Rookie Outfielders Fred Lynn

thank you,

Mike

I'm working on a 1972 set in NRMT or better.

Mintacular

1970 Starter Set EXMT (69). Clean backs on most, sharp corners with some "tip touches" but no dings, range from #2-418. Hand picked commons--NO DUPS. No staining or hidden flaws. 10% EX/40% EX+/40% EXMT/10% NM $40 DLVD

Mintacular

1962 Topps Lot of (100) in EX shape few better, few worse but NO CREASES. The VGEX+ (20% of lot) have miscut centering or significant wax staining. Light corner wear, chipping, ok centering. A few sem-highs. Commons NO DUPS.

Mintacular

So what I've decided to do is give the people who PMed their interest in a certain year the first crack at buying a lot but posting the scan here. If that person doesn't like the price or the assortment then I will open it up to other members to buy at that price.

Again, prices are going to be based on what I put into them (which was a downright steal) and the fact that I would like some $ in my paypal account in the next day or two for my move instead of waiting 7 days for an ebay sale, and then 3 days for payment to come in, etc. (I also like to throw in some freebies to make people happy but don't count on that 'cause I might forget or might not do so with each purchase )

Here's a few fresher '71s some with centering issues:



(Note: I will always list out card #'s or provide back scans if that's a deal breaker for you. Also, I try very hard to go through each card and provide an accurate PSA condition assessment but if for some reason--and I don't think this will happen--you just aren't happy with my grade you can return the cards and I will pay for return shipping...)

IchiroDeported

nice lots.

I have (35) minty mid-60's cards for sale: $50 DLVD. Most are scanned in (check above). Here are the card #'s/yrs:

65s: 48, 128, 165, 199, 277
66s: 64, 124, 184, 379
67s: 2, 3, 6, 8, 10*, 29, 37, 39, 42, 61, 64*, 69, 105, 109*, 129*, 135*, 136*, 147*, 196*, 197, 203, 237, 247, 261, 271, 277.

*'s = some natural fading/browing on back--nothing serious but thought you should know. The rest are bright "pack fresh" or only been handled a couple times IMO. Thanks, Pat

Mintacular

Here are the last pics of the *HIGH GRADE* mid-sixties cards so I think if you look back most are scanned in. Again $50 DLVD so basically I am charging $1.30 for these babies if you consider that I will pay shipping...

Mintacular

A (50) card hand-picked starter common lot of '61 Topps in EXMT. NO DUPS, sharp corners with "tip touches" on some, typical o/c, minimal surface wear, clean backs. 75% are EXMT the other are EX/EX+
