I give up :(

I have decided to forfeit my attempt at a complete set of 83 Donruss in all PSA 10 and refocus my direction for my collection.

I have decided to collect every key rookie and second year HOF'er card from every set from the 80's in PSA 9 or 10. Then start working my way back to the 70's in PSA 7 or 8.

If anyone needs any 83 Donruss PSA 10's other than Boggs, Gwynn, Sandberg, Ripken or Ryan (keeping those) please and I do mean please PM me.

Side note, I'll probably do the same once my grades pop (only with 77 OPC's) Atleast if I quit now I can blame Bill.

Good luck with the HOFs.

VitoCo1972 · August 10, 2009 11:40AM

you're probably going to put 4SC and psa-set-guy out of business by not paying $10+/ea for 83 Donruss cards LOL.

I just hit about 20 Emmitt Smith PSA 10's from psasetguy for 9.99. I'll pick up Bill's slack

Yep just as I suspected. Bill's a quitter.

That is a great pic swartz! LOL

Wait a few weeks, and you still may see 4SC, Just Collect, etc. sell 83 Donruss PSA 10 commons for $3 each?

CDsNuts · August 10, 2009 3:36PM

I know the real reason Bill- it's because the 83 Donruss isn't a big enough challenge for you so you decided to go for the entire 1990 Procards Minor League set in PSA. Good luck sir.

bighurt2000 · August 10, 2009 4:03PM

Rick Astley meet him here in Maryland when he was visiting his mother about the same time that video came out.
My step mom was from England and knew his mother and she invitied us over. Spent about 6 hours hanging out

Smart move, why would you have ever started that set?

rexvos · August 10, 2009 11:36PM

do 83 Fleer instead.

WinPitcher · August 11, 2009 12:03AM

I'm sorry this happened to you.

And me too for that matter.

Morgoth · August 11, 2009 12:12AM

I am sure you will be able to unload your set to the other 20 or 30 people on the set registry right???????

lsutigers1973 · August 11, 2009 12:15AM

<< I am sure you will be able to unload your set to the other 20 or 30 people on the set registry right??????? >>

#1 all time finest for the set doesn't have the complete set and hasn't added a card in over a year.

itzagoner · August 11, 2009 12:17AM

wutza copulate set?

lsutigers1973 · August 11, 2009 12:18AM

It's complete now.

itzagoner · August 11, 2009 12:19AM

aw, screw it.

lsutigers1973 · August 11, 2009 12:26AM

<< Smart move, why would you have ever started that set? >>

Childhood memories and stuff.

larryallen73 · August 11, 2009 12:28AM

I think you are just putting up smoke and mirrors, knowing that 4SC is following your collecting habits on here, in hopes that they drop the price on '83 Donruss commons tomorrow as there then would be no '83 Donruss collectors left in the world. We shall see....

lawnmowerman · August 11, 2009 12:29AM

<< Smart move, why would you have ever started that set? >>

The same reason you like 1960 Topps.

I don't know why you have such a problem with what everyone else collects and always feel the need to spew your negativity.

Please define "and stuff." Thank you.

Busted 100's of packs of 83 Donruss, but it was probably in about 1985. Was only looking for Dale Murphy. When the card market boomed about the same time, it was very exciting to go back and pull out the Boggs, Sandberg and Gwynns from the boxes of cards and trade them for Dale Murphy cards.

nam812 · August 11, 2009 12:36AM

How did that business strategy work out for you?

baseballfan · August 11, 2009 12:43AM

good luck with that

any idea how your going to get rid of the 10's?

lsutigers1973 · August 11, 2009 1:27AM

<< How did that business strategy work out for you? >>

I was 12 and it was still a hobby to me. I was happy with my Murphy cards so I guess it worked out well.

I give up :(
