Need some baseball/football cards to finish some sets--any help appreciated

AkbarClone · February 23, 2004 12:27PM

I've got a large number of commemorative/insert sets that I am near to completing. I've been buying almost all of the cards off eBay, but as I'm down to the final few for several sets, I thought I would see if anyone on these boards might have some of the cards I need (or all of them if I'm lucky). I'll just start off with a few for now to see if I have any luck. I hope someone can help. I pay via Paypal or personal check.

2001 Upper Deck Pinstripe Exclusives Mantle:
#16
#39
#54

2001 Upper Deck Pinstripe Exclusives DiMaggio:
#16
#55

1998 SI Then & Now Covers:
#1 of 12C--Lou Brock
#12 of 12C--Ivan Rodriguez

Thanks to anyone who might can help me finish these! If so, I have many more sets to complete. Either post here or send a PM. I can also trade any duplicates I may have of sets or players, but am such a card junkie that I prefer to buy.

This about does it for Baseball sets I want to finish. My next post will have some football sets. Let me hear from some of you guys!

AkbarClone · February 26, 2004 1:09AM

And lastly, here are a few reprint football sets I'm looking to finish:

Thanks to the 2 persons who have made offers to help on a few of these. I guess 99% of you don't have anything older than last year, or only collect basketball.

If anyone knows of any trade/sell sites that have people who want some money, please let me know.
Thanks

PLMK if you need any of these. I'm currently looking to sell, not trade. Thanks, Missourian.

AkbarClone · February 26, 2004 4:15AM

Missourian, Of your list, I need:

1999 Topps Ryan Finest #19 of 27
2002 Topps Own the Game #OG9-Lance Berkman
2000 Topps #273A--Hank Aaron

Could you clarify about the 2000 Topps John Unitas #19? The checklist I'm working from has 18 cards numbered R-1 through R-18, so was your card (#19) a commemorative card that was part of that years base set?

Please PM me your sell price, and I'll either counteroffer or accept.

Many thanks!

I have enjoyed dealing with several of you helping me on these sets. I've edited the list since I was able to finish 4 of my sets so far. I also wanted to add that I have about a dozen player collections also, and for now I'd like to throw out ROGER STAUBACH's name for anyone of you that have any of his cards for sale (or trade). Let me know if anyone has any of his cards.
Thanks!

dpeters28 · March 4, 2004 9:53AM

Sorry this is posted so late. The cards you purchased went out yesterday. Let me know when you get them.

AkbarClone · March 7, 2004 12:53PM
