Tune in tomorrow for my DIY show "Building furniture from empty Heritage boxes", and don't miss Sundays episode "Wallpapering With Wrappers".

joestalin · March 20, 2009 12:44PM

The real question is how many pieces of gum have your chewed...I would say I have been through 30 by now.

<< ok, how about 5000 packs? I can't even name a huge pull that someone has had on here, certainly we are due? Who is going to get us out of
this slump and hit one off the wall for multiple bases?

Kevin >>

what's considered a big pull? I was pretty happy with the dual masterson auto and my 2 variations

milkandcheese1 · March 20, 2009 1:08PM

Mantle/Teixeira dual relic not count? And while he doesn't post here, we could always count my best friend's pull of the McDougald Flashback Auto 20/25. He's the reason I'm here ;-).

But apparently since I don't like to read things all the way through today, he re-married so Nam you still win.... Check out what this genius bought a couple of days ago... Needed a 2nd monitor figured this was a great deal.

This seems to conflict with the previosly posted lists. Am I to assume that the Mayo's are randomly mixed at Target and Walmart?

joestalin · March 20, 2009 3:43PM

The card numbers on the back indicate which set they are from. W for walmart and T for target. Is there a chance you bought some at both strores
and forgot about it?

ok -who's returning walmart stuff to Target. Is somebody searching for hot packs and returning cards????????

Mick65 · March 20, 2009 11:07PM

I didn't think the Mayos were showing up in blasters. Target retail packs or Walmart jumbos... right?

Topps must not appreciate the way Walmart negotiates with it's vendors.......putting the Walmart "exclusives" in Target packs, and extracting the SPs from their blasters..............

I hit a little local show today. Nothing fantastic Heritage wise, though my wife bought herself a retail box of American Heritage.

I stopped at my local shop for some supplies and grabbed 2 packs of '08 High Numbers and scored 2 chromes:274 and 281 Thinking my luck was pretty good, when we stopped at target I randomly grabbed 2 packs. I got a SP in each pack and my first ever black Refractor: Carlos Quentin #20 of 60.

Sweet pull on the back Ref...My wife is off to Target for some things and she will look for Heritage for me I hope she comes home with some cards.

1 Chrome: C32 Felix Hernandez

1 Chrome Refractor: C20 David Wright

I also pulled the A R A M I S card. Is that an SP Variation? I tried looking through this thread for a list of parallels, but its taking forever on my blackberry. If someone could repost the list here I'd appreciate it.

joestalin · March 21, 2009 3:15PM

Craig...you need to get some "modern" needs for trade, you keep pulling these great cards and I have nothing to trade you for it! LOL

Gumby...check my blog, I have the list on there, Aramis isn't one of them. Good Luck

As you can see, I will need to buy a few more as my need list is bigger than my to trade list. Any offers on selling me a lot of 10-15? Also, I believe I will need to purchase 485 & 487 from someone. Any offers? I can't believe how few of the subsets I have pulled. I only have 2-3 of each set, so I am looking for those as well.

Hey Zep! You should check out the values of that Conor Jackson card you pulled! There has only been one on EBay that sold for $280 and there is another one (which is mine) that ends tonight. Apparently, this card seems more rare than all of the others at this time and of course is a must for people completing the master set with all seven variations.

Craig in Texas

joestalin · March 22, 2009 6:11AM

The conner is rare cause people just don't know what it looks like! Even with all the info this is a card that is going to missed. Im sure a few are in
common boxes. I think its great that you guys can cash in big time on a card like this. Makes me feel a little better about topps screwing us in just
about every other way in this years heritage. Good Luck!

Kevin

HeritageAddict · March 22, 2009 6:15AM

The Adrian Gonzalez is a sleeper as well, I sold mine a few days ago for $200. Stay tuned later today for the DIY special "Creative Uses For Your Heritage Trash".

parker95 · March 22, 2009 7:07AM

Well put Kevin! I think Topps owes us big time!

Craig in Texas

zep33 · March 22, 2009 7:09AM

While my Smoltz sat on Ebay with a high BIN, I pulled the Conor Jackson. The Smoltz didn't sell and now I have 2 of the 7. Still trying to decide whether to just sell them or try to find the other 5.

I do have 2 Hobby boxes on my desk here that I picked up yesterday morning but spent most of the weekend in bed sick and haven't felt like ripping anything if you can believe that. Starting to feel better so I'll probably rip one tonight during the WBC game

HeritageAddict · March 22, 2009 7:16AM

Sorry to hear that you are sick Mike, at least you have a game to watch and some cards to open! I wish that there were some hobby boxes locally. I look forward to you finding the musial/pujols dual relic for me.

joestalin · March 22, 2009 7:22AM

Zep...I can't see these cards still being worth even half of what they are getting today in a few years. This is the time to sell.

Kevin

justmichael · March 22, 2009 7:23AM

Is anybody interested in a Tom Glavine variation.If so please pm me.Thanks
Mike

HeritageAddict · March 22, 2009 7:28AM

I have to agree with Kevin, I think now is the time to sell, within a few months you will be able to pick them up much cheaper.

zep33 · March 22, 2009 7:29AM

<< Zep...I can't see these cards still being worth even half of what they are getting today in a few years. This is the time to sell.

Kevin >>

I know you're right about that. Guess I'll throw them both up on ebay tonight. I actually listed a master set earlier today along with some other stuff I should have listed a month ago LOL

My problem is I get too attached to them and by the time I'm sick of them, they are worthless

HeritageAddict · March 22, 2009 7:59AM

Mike, you might as well open one of the boxes while you wait for the game to start.
