I didn't see any official thread for the '77s, so I decided to start one! ![image](https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif)
I won't be collecting anything but the rookies from the set, but I noticed that one of the rookies in PSA 10 went for nearly $2k with BIN! Here's the link...

Czar, my screename is SportsCardMan on eBay. There's a link to some of my auctions that I'm running right now in my sig. Great job on that J.Clark 10! Wow! Did you submit that one or pick it up already graded?

In retrospect, maybe it's good Luis didn't have a '72...another card would have messed up the symmetry of your image
Yes, the '77 is all I need to complete that sig. But, I've got the '81 Donruss, '81 Fleer, '82 Topps & '83 Topps to add still to that sig. Guess I gotta shrink down those pics just a bit...or, maybe go over the size limit by a tinge

So what's the significance of Camilo Pascual and Luis Tiant if you don't mind me asking? (other than the fact that they were both underrated pitchers and both from Cuba)

Mike,
You pretty much summed it up with what it is the parenthesis there. I'm a Cuban-American (born and raised in So Cal and relocated to South Florida
My next two (I've already started them) are Tony Perez and Tony Oliva. Then, I will be working on some others down the road. Just that "fun" part of the hobby creeping into things. You know, you can't just think of makin' money here, can ya'?
I'm still working on finishing my '84 Donruss (almost there!) and my '72 Topps Baseball (just a stone's throw away from finishing!) and then I'll work towards finishing my '85 Topps Football set. From there, no big sets anymore!
The player sets and smaller sets (200 cards or less) are more fun for me right now. Although, if I stay away from the big sets for awhile, I'll probably get that itch again!

Did I leave anything out?
ditto what magellan said a few more toughies are gross, stone, singer, hunter, guidry. If your going to jump in nows the time as its really a bargain at the moment compared to 78's imo due to no competition and 77 unopened is really tough to find and usually provides the same mushy stock results. I purchased a couple vending cases a few yrs back from bbc with good results and another source that was soso and missed out on another from steve which i think uncommons bought but thats not a fact. He seems to keep popping blazing cards which leads me to believe he might have been the one to beat me to it. What I have left is the best of what ive pulled through the years.
For instance the candy went for a whopping 10 and change tonight which my napper failed otherwise i had a modest bid in just to own for awhile. Its one of the cards i havent been able to tackle in clean fashion. 10's have been all over the map 10 sold for 30-45 last month and ended tonight between 60-85.
Its a great colorful set when done in clean fashion.
Matt
i am not grading these, but want to simply compile a nice raw set.
have us dollar bills and cardboard currency as well!!!
loving you all

P.S. What are some of your favorite cards from the set??
Any other 77 cloth collectors in this group? I need a few more 10s.
54 Red Hearts
and now 64 Stand ups
As for some of your questions. It doesn't seem to me like there is whole lot of unopened material left, and what is around can run a little pricey. I cracked two vending boxes recently with little luck. The vending goes form $200 to $400. Wax, if it's really unopened, can run $500 to $1000. I've purchased some packs on ebay from $18 -$25 per.
I started this set because I love the design, and it's the year I was born. Kind of cheesy I know but It was always my favorite set.
The psa 8's are pretty easy to find for about 95% of the set. 9's are a little tougher, but not impossible. 10's sometimes don't look much better than 8's, or 9's and can be next to impossible to find. Some people are paying crazy money for the 10's. Someone called "mikescardsdotcom" is buying up all the 10's that come up on ebay, and is paying well over $100 for some of them.
I have a lot of 14 psa 8's up on ebay right now if your interested, they should go cheap.
I think the cards I like the best are:
#6 K Leaders, Ryan and Seaver. In my opinion one of the coolest cards of the decade.
The Brett card is always a fav. it has great color.
Fisk is also a great card! The picture is outstanding. Good luck finding one centered better than 70-30

Compared to the '78 set, this one is just not very popular. So, you don't run into as much eBay material.
Catfish Hunter is a tough card, as is Thurman Munson. There are many, many commons lower than Pop Five...it adds to this set's challenge.
Good luck, Sting! Nice of you to resurrect this thread!
I'm going to crack the case and put the ryan into a nice raw set that I have going. Mostly cards that are perfect except for centering, or have slightly fuzzy corners. The kind of stuff that get a 7 or a qualifier.
I bought 7 more 9's tonight from Gator05. He always has nice stuff.

<< <i>I bought a 77 Ryan form him some months ago just to see what kind of BS this guy is spitting. The card was not that bad, maybe a 7 or an 8 on good day. The holders he puts his cards in don't allow you to see the couners real well. Mine has two fuzzy corners, and 70-30 centering. The surface look great, the edges are ok, and the back is 50-50 perfect. I don't think what he is doing is right, but if people buy from him and keep his feedback above 99% what can you do?

The card itself can be judged from the pictures (obviously not a 10 as the slab says), as ex-mint because of centering. What bothers me is his lie about his very own garage grading service:
<< <i>Winning bidder receives this beautiful investment-quality card which has been graded GEM 10 by Graded Rookies Authenticated (GRA). Along with Beckett and PSA, GRA has established itself as an industry leader in the grading of premium quality sportscards. WHY BUY FROM US? Six simple reasons. QUALITY -- featured by Beckett in the August 2001 Baseball Card Monthly, GRA GEM 10 cards are the best of the best, continually command some of the highest premiums in the hobby, and offer tremendous investment potental. >>
Got to love these 77s!!!
You are completely correct! What he says about his cards is totally off base, and should not be allowed. His cards are not anywhere near the "best of the best". That's a laugher.
Stingray:
Nice stuff! Are those your first? That Staub is not an easy card, it always seems to have something that keeps it from being perfect. I've got 7 raw and each one either has a print flaw or is 80-20 off center.
I'm known as Zoolander on the registry if anyone wants to check out my sets.
Let's keep this thread going
"I'll be back,, we'll make out" "High five"
Once I figure out how to post pics. I'll post the GRA 10 Ryan I cracked open last night.
CDsNuts, 1/9/15
Among my personal favorite cards are the previously mentioned Catfish Hunter, Brett and Fisk. The Tony Perez card is profoundly cool.
Looking through the set's rundown, I also like, among many others, the cards for Gaylord Perry, Bill Madlock, J.R. Richard, Ray Fosse, George Hendrick (a Golf visor
As for me, I'm with stringray, i'm going with 8's 9's and the occational 10 mixed in. After I finish the set I'll upgrade most of the cards to 9 over time. I'm also interested in the Burger King Yankees, the OPC and the cloth stickers from 77. Can you tell I love the design?
I've started submitting team set requestes to PSA, yesterday I sent in the 77 Braves. Over the next few weeks I'm going to submit all the team sets that are not currently on the registry.
I'm also thinking of starting a second set in all 7's. I'm sure there are a ton of them out there, but they don't end up on ebay because they don't sell. Anyone have any thoughts on that one?
How do I post a scan? Sorry i't may take me a few weeks to get the hang of the message board.
CDsNuts, 1/9/15
As far as PSA 7s, that is tough, just not sure money wise if it would be worth it.
These are some of the harder to find cards that i've picked up in the last few weeks.
Ok I updated the order of the photos
CDsNuts, 1/9/15
Or, is this how you're spending your severance check?

I was also wondering who "mikescardsdotcom" is????? If's not czar, then it's someone not on the registry.
If I see "Mikescarddotcom" in the bidders list I don't even bother.

PS
MLB dropped the ball on that protested game last week. They really opened up a can of worms.
