    Ask PSA for the owner's home address. Knock at his door and tell him you want the card. If he doesn't give it to you put on the costume and follow him around.

    Yeah, I'm kind of confused by that request. If you're asking how you can find out who hasthis card available, all I can suggest is checking the registry sets that are out there and see who has this card. Often times, they will notate in the comments if they have a "spare" available.

    Is it listed in the "registry" or "population" - If it is in the registry/a registry set - see if the owner has their e-mail turned on and try e-mailing them, if they do not have their e-mail turned on, I wouldn't bother going any further as they have opted not to be bothered. If it is part of the "population" - good luck - exception being if it is a higher profile card (ie - PSA 10 52 Mantle) some of the better known dealers might know where it is. Be well. Good luck. BTW what card is it?

    Easy...click on the set that has the card you are interested in. On the right side you should see "contact xxxxx". Click that link and give it your best shot. This assumes of course the owner of the set has enabled his email contact link in the Registry, otherwise you may not have much success unless you post an open email to the guy on the Registry board and hope he reads it.

    be careful on that advice. someone at psa may just give him the address.

    it's listed in the population report and the set the card belongs to isn't in the registry

    the card is a 2000 Upper Deck Master Collection Muhammad Ali Autograph #ALI-A2 PSA 8. There's only one ALI-A2 listed in the pop report and it's also the only auto that i need to complete the set

    I do not have that card. Since the pop report says there is only one in existence, I suggest we go back to KbKards initial suggestion -

    Seriously, I wish you the best of luck but the 'needle in the haystack' response seems to sum it up.
