How many of these per box?
It seems that only a few show up on ebay each day since their release, yet they sell for very little.
Are they being hoarded by collectors? I'm looking for about 10-15 different cards from this set (mostly commons, semis) and none of them have shown up. This seems strange to me. Anyone have a good source for these besides ebay?

A Gerald Perry is a Gerald Perry whether it's pulled out of a 1989 pack or a 2009 pack, I guess?

That's what I'm afraid of - I'd love to pick up a Butler, but there hasn't been one listed yet.

<< <i>what a ridiculous insert; they made billions of 89' sets and packs. or it sure seemed like it. >>
True, but in a few years from now, player collectors are going to have a very tough time tracking these down. Since they are stamped with the 25th logo and inserted into packs, they are something that should appear on checklists.

Biggio retired after the 2007 season. Rest of the list looks pretty good, I can't think of any others off the top of my head.
On edit, I see where Tom Gordon is on Arizona's DL this year.

Hes stating the obvious. Every card in the 89 UD set was included in the UD "buyback" promotion.....

Where is he stating the obvious? He is asking that if (suggesting he isn't sure a Puckett exists for this promotion) there is a Puckett available and someone who visits these boards has one, that he's interested in it.
Essentially the point of this thread.

I have a Curt Ford (crappy Cardinals OF) that's an absolute blazer!
Only an idiot would have a message board signature.

I highly doubt thats the case.Complete sets are cheap.Hell knowing Upper Deck they probrobly printed off fresh sets just for this.

I apologize, I ASSumed that Upper Deck actually had them autographed by their respective players,hence, the "Puckett" and "Caminiti" response. I suppose I set my the bar to high, my aggression should be targeted to the manufacturers. I hope this doesn't start a new trend. There wouldn't be anything like buying a $70 box in 2010 and pulling an 86 Topps Alan Knicely,87 Topps Mike Greenwell and an 88 Topps Pat Borders with a gold stamp.

Unless people are just hoarding them right now (or not bothering to list them), this may actually be the case. I have seen multiple copies of several players and none for others. The lone Steve Sax card is over $20 currently while a Ryne Sandberg sells for $3-8. There are many players/numbers that I regularly search for that have yet to show up.
I guess it's just a matter of time, as more of this product gets broken down, hopefully these numbers start to show up. I'm just worried that 5 years from now, when this product is long forgotten, that it will be even more impossible to find the singles of the guys I collect.
