That walk off homer last night against my phils didn't hurt the sale of the Fielder wood..congrats.

Kevin

parkerj · August 5, 2007 2:53AM

Nick, nice job on the Wang auto - $323 seems pretty high, way to go!

zep33 · August 5, 2007 3:21AM

<< My wood mini was Prince Fielder. Just accepted an offer of $400 for it.

Here's my sales so far:
Wang auto - $323
Ichiro bazooka - $150
Fielder wood - $400 >>

that's all out of one case? sweet!!!

will probably sell my 2 bazookas - is $150 a normal price for those? mine are Arod and Mario Andretti

couldn't stay away from the card store on my trip outside - picked up 2 more boxes from 1 place and 1 from another along with a box of Triple Threads.
Anyone interested in coming over here to shoot me?

not opening anything else until my set is in sheets and I count up the complete case rundown of what I got.

joestalin · August 5, 2007 3:45AM

If you can get 150 for bazookas do it, I think the autos of those guys are selling for around 150. Bruce Lee is maybe the only bazooka that will sell
for that much

Kevin

zep33 · August 5, 2007 4:50AM

Set is in sheets - man that looks nice

here's the breakdown of the case:

Flags: 24
Emperors: 6
Snakes: 1
Black mini no #: 22
Black mini with #: 7
AG mini: 62
Reg mini with #: 158
Reg mini no #: 3
Bazooka: 2
Autos: 3
Relics: 20 (18 different)
Printing Plates: 1
Rip Cards: 1
N43: 6
National Pride: 6

And 1 complete set w/ SPs

rest of the SPs unknown for now

nam812 · August 5, 2007 5:01AM

I get 3 no number blacks in my hobby case, and zep gets 22. LOL Way to go Topps.

prscott933 · August 5, 2007 5:09AM

i'm off to target, crossing my fingers for a blaster. i am not too hopeful though, i was at a different target yesterday and they didn't have any...

temperature is going be in the mid 90's tomorrow... any bets that UPS leaves my case baking in the sun on my front step?

joestalin · August 5, 2007 5:23AM

<< I get 3 no number blacks in my hobby case, and zep gets 22. LOL Way to go Topps.

>>

So far it looks like these are not variations, but each card either has a number or doesn't. My research on this is going slowly

HeritageAddict · August 5, 2007 6:16AM

Zep, what are you doing posting, you've got some ripping to do.

zep33 · August 5, 2007 6:27AM

lol I know, I just woke up from my Sunday afternoon nap, Red Sox game just started.

About ready to attack the packs again.

zep33 · August 5, 2007 6:50AM

nice first box

normal minis
3 black
5 AG
2 flags

Joe Frazier - workout shirt
Scott Rolen Jersey

but got another of the Ken Jennings cards I needed for my first set. Now there's a good chance I'll have another set out of all this

zep33 · August 5, 2007 7:25AM

LOL now i get an autograph I already got - Hanley Ramirez
Ivan Rodriguez jersey

3 black mini with #
4 AG mini
1 reg no # mini - Ichiro (I know this is a variation cause I already have one with a #)
2 flags
1 Emperor I already have - got 3 doubles on emperor cards if anyone wants to trade 1 for 1

Anyone know if that Arod card on the front of the box exists? only card of his on the checklist is a sideways card and the minis I've pulled of him are the same style as the regular card

zep33 · August 5, 2007 7:54AM

Box 3

another rip card - Adam LaRoche 31/99 - should I rip? Of course I should
2 black minis w/ #
2 flags
1 more emperor I already had
1 reg mini no # John Lackey

another Rich Aurilia bat
Randy Winn jersey

I'll get a need/trade list together later but feel free to PM any wants you guys have

tsalem · August 5, 2007 9:21AM

what are the odds on the black no#'s? or should i ask... are they limited to 50 made as well? looks like on ebay there are many more black no numbers than the white version

HeritageAddict · August 5, 2007 9:26AM

Zep, did you rip that rip card?

zep33 · August 5, 2007 9:48AM

just ripped them both

Dice - K!!!!

&

Hanley Ramirez

both gray back minis

joestalin · August 5, 2007 11:31AM

WOW Zep..way to go buddy!!!!

Tom...It looks like the no # black minis are just uncorrected errors, as I have yet to see a card with both variations. I think they will all book the same.

sorry not sure how to make links for these but here are 2 philip hughes no number backs on ebay. 1 is a black bordered and 1 is a white bordered. There are many more blacks on ebay than whites so i think the whites are limited to 50 and who knows on the blacks...maybe 100-150?

joestalin · August 5, 2007 1:12PM

white front/no numbers are the no numbers that it says on the back of the wrapper...print run is 50
black front/no number....unannounced error no corrected card
black front/number...regular black minis

Kevin

tsalem · August 5, 2007 1:33PM

Kevin..

sounds correct to me.
Thinking about doing the white bordered no# set again this year.
if anyone has any, please PM with what you have and what you want for them.
If your looking for any 2006 in return in trade, i have many base cards and base minis.
many sp's in both versions on hand here

thnx tom

Knopfler · August 5, 2007 2:29PM

well, so far through three boxes doesn't look like A&G is being as kind to me as Heritage! Anyway, here are the best so far. All of them except for Hall are up for auction now (click on link below if interested).

tsalem · August 5, 2007 2:33PM

What do you have for white bordered no# minis?
please pm what you have and what you want..thnx tom

joestalin · August 5, 2007 3:25PM

Tom

I have these no numbers:

Beltran,Y Hernandez,Monroe,Shawn Green,Hatterberg

I would be looking for bazooka backs or autos.

Kevin

tsalem · August 5, 2007 3:41PM

Kevin...
still waiting for my 2007 ginter to show up. Nothing to trade yet.
when i break some stuff down, i will pm you

thnx tom

Knopfler · August 6, 2007 12:57AM

Has anyone put together an Excel checklist for A&G?

kmnorton · August 6, 2007 2:45AM

Here's the equivalent of my box breaks (I'm waiting for my Retail to come in).

Matsuzaka A&G back ($4.00)
Tiberius & Hadrian Emperor's ($6.00)
Copperhead Snake ($5.95)
Jason McElwain Auto ($65.00)
Jessie Litsch Bazooka ($7.25)
74 Mini's ($19.99)
Matsuzaka Black ($19.95)
Hideki Okajima No Number ($10.00)
Bengie Molina No Number ($5.00)
4 Flags and an Emperor ($4.95)
8 Blacks, 3 N43 (Pujols, Louganis & Andretti) and 1 GU ($12.14)
Misti May-Treanor Auto ($69.99)

So, for the price of 2 boxes, those were my "hits". I think the inital bargains may be gone, but I was happy.

Kurt

HeritageAddict · August 6, 2007 2:51AM

Kurt, did you order your retail from Lockwood?

kmnorton · August 6, 2007 3:02AM

Doran,

Yes, I did. I contacted him and he said it was shipping from the warehouse today and he should get it in 2 or 3 days and than ship it out to those that ordered. Yes, I was a little anxious and was looking for any early signs.

Kurt

HeritageAddict · August 6, 2007 3:21AM

Thanks Kurt, wow so it's still going to be next week before we see those cases, makes me wish I had gone with hobby instead.

joestalin · August 6, 2007 4:50AM

Rushed into target today to see 3 big taped up card boxes. I know these well, taped with yellow "put out on shelves ASAP" tape. Opened the first
and found Pokeman, the second had more pokemon and Red Sox boxes (WTF?). Quickly I ripped into the thrid and saw it was baseball........ALL
FREAKING OPENING DAY. What the heck?

I can't believe A&G isn't out yet, retailers have to know that if it goes out early they can sell it all. cmon!

Kevin

ahendi · August 6, 2007 5:51AM

ahendi · August 6, 2007 5:52AM

Still looking for rookies. Good to see you again.

nam812 · August 6, 2007 10:33AM

I just read an auction where the seller posted this:

LIST OF THE 50 CONFIRMED SP in the BIG & MINI SETS...5, 43, 47, 48, 58, 63, 107, 110, 119, 130, 137, 152, 159, 178, 193, 194, 203, 219, 222, 224, 243, 263, 301, 302, 303, 306, 307, 308, 309, 310, 316, 318, 319, 320, 321, 322, 325, 326, 327, 330, 331, 334, 335, 336, 339, 340, 345, 348, 349, 350.

If that auction is correct, that means the only difference in Kevin's list would be 317 is out and 47 is in. Can anyone confirm that the above list is correct, or if the SPs have been officially confirmed yet?

joestalin · August 6, 2007 10:39AM

SP have NOT been confirmed yet. Hopefully tomorrow. Its appears that beckett is out for lunch the entire week!

Kevin

five7teen · August 6, 2007 10:56AM

My case arrived today, so the ripping will start later tonight. I'll post anything outstanding...

joestalin · August 6, 2007 11:18AM

Good Luck Jason, I hope we can make some trades this year!

Kevin

ArnyVee · August 6, 2007 11:23AM

I haven't read the whole thread, but does anyone have a Freddy Adu autograph that they'd like to unload?

prscott933 · August 6, 2007 11:33AM

<< 
For all who busted A&G I could really use your help on the black minis. Im trying to compile a list of which ones have no # and which have numbers. If you have
the time to make a list we could find out if they are uncorrected errors or varitaions!

Thanks
Kevin >>

I have Greg Maddux and Mia Hamm black minis without numbers.

nam812 · August 6, 2007 1:39PM

In black mini no number cards I have:

gstarling · August 6, 2007 2:24PM

For those of you looking to resale sets, the market is falling quickly.

I just picked up a complete set 1-350 for $78 dlvd. eBay Set

That's a pretty good deal, but they can be had pretty easily at $85 dlvd.
