I need the cash at the time, but I know I will never find another. Mantle and Maris dual auto on a 1961 card.....man that was sweet. But I guess the whole tuition thing is important also haha.

Always looking for Topps Salesman Samples, pre '51 unopened packs, E90-2, E91a, N690 Kalamazoo Bats, and T204 Square Frame Ramly's
<< <i>Wait, so you sold a Ruth game used card to buy 1989 fleer versions of the bad ripken brother? I don't get it? >>
yeah I did. I needed the $$ to buy a white scribble saw cut on top of a rack pack for $250. 99% would call me crazy but for me it was something I had to get.
Sold 1968 Topps NR-MINT Roberto Clemente - BV - $80....sold for 9.99 plus shipping, I almost cried when I saw this!

No, that wasn't crazy at all; that sounds like quite a one of a kind item. I mean, getting a key rookie on top is easy, but try getting the rarest(?) version of the FF on top. Just like with my 1992-95 Fleer/Ultra insert project; getting the base set is easy (you just need to rip open a couple of cartons to get it), but think of how many packs you'd have to rip to get all the inserts.

<< <i>I've never sold one that I really regret, but I missed out on a 1/1 auto of my favorite player last night because my EX wife phoned me and got me arguing. Just one more thing I get to hate her for I guess >>
Is this part of the reason for the "ex" in ex-wife?

Lot sold for much less than I would ever want to admit. Adding insult to injury, the buyer proceeds to leave feedback that says "BEST LOT I'VE EVER PURCHASED ON EBAY!"
I miss my Payton RC

Thought I was the king!!
There was also the 20 sets of Fleer basketball that were sold off between 1989 and 1994....I think the most I ever got was $1100 for one.....
and all waaaaaay before PSA was even a thought in mind!!
82 Topps traded ripken was the best color I have ever seen. Almost like it was the first printed when they changed the ink. I have never seen a background sky so dark blue on this card again
Just a killer card!

<< <i>Just before I started on PSA I sold all my football RCs in one lot on ebay. I had a Payton RC (around a 7), a Montana RC (around a 7), a Dorsett RC (around an 8), a Marcus Allen RC (9 possibly 10 material) and a slew of high grade mid-90s RC like '96 Topps Chrome Harrison, Johnson, Moulds Refractor, etc. and bunch of '99 RCs.

<< <i>E 90 American Caramel Nap Lajoie PROOF card, the only one known to exist. It was authenticated by SGC. Man, do I ever kick myself for selling that. >>
Oh man. I feel your pain.
Picked these up earlier this year when I was flirting with the idea of starting in on these sets, but soon decided that it wasn't time yet and sold them off. Still, I miss 'em.

It's tough letting anything go of the Mick.
I hope you find something similar to replace it.
I don't have any auto cards but do have many auto'ed items including a book, ball etc.
Good luck

Your right. That was one I miss. I didnt know if it was legit, got I got it cheap and needed the money so the deal had to be done. I want to get another autographed item from him but money and priorities are the concern. I know eventuallly I will get one and part of my motivation is my 4 y.o. when he gets excited when he pulls a Mantle HR from 2006 topps or I pitch to him and ask him who he is and he names Mante among 9 or so other players. I dont empahsize who was great and name many players but some stick with him . Glad Mantle is one of them.
Thank You to those who replied, sharing cards missed can be hard and has been done but I wanted to share my lost ones as I finally got photobucket in action. Happy Thanksgiving to all and Im glad I joined this message board as aside from the help I have received in my collecting niche I have read some good conversationsand learned the importance odf proper grammer. Thanks.

P.S. I'm drinking so my grammer could be of.
<< <i>Nightcrawler, you need a sniping service and a sniper! >>
Heh heh, that one took me awile
I wouldn't have got it without seeing Stones laughy guy
Thanks
