Am waffling on these 7 that I got pretty cheaply ...$22 each. Nice star power.

    I bid on these too last week. That was fast shipping.

    I think my top bid was $20/rack. I am just not that into 78's.

    Good luck.

    Nice racks so far. You could easily start a very nice NMMT set with those.

    Hey Mike, I'm slowly building a raw 78 set, lmk if you want to sell any. I'm about halfway with the set and have mainly been building it from our rips here.

  • Nathaniel1960Nathaniel1960 Posts: 2,331 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Wow, that's a tough run for 7 racks. No Brett, Yount, Ryan, Ryan RB, Schmidt, Molitor, Murray, Yaz, Dawson, Munson......some nice stars nonetheless VERY CLEAN!!

    All right, Mike! That had to be a fun rip!

    Nice cards! Thanks for sharing. I think it's pretty tough to pull a Ryan or Murray from a rack due to suquencing of cards (unless it's a box from a sealed case).

    Great cards, looks like a few possible 10s.

    Suggestion...

    What I do is tape a black piece of paper to the lid of the scanner , that way I have a black background on the pics. Makes the pics so much better. The white borders stand right out with the black background.

    BTW...nice break!

    I can get that Reggie Cleveland signed for a dollah.

    If you want a black background when scanning, you can also just leave the scanner lid open.

    Mike,

    Some nice cards in there. Looks like you have a nice Reggie #200. I did notice alot of chipping on some of the first couple batches? Am I right? I never ran into chipped edges back a few years ago when I was busting these racks by the case! Just curious ... thanks,

    Dan

    Dan:

    The first rack or two did have some chipping -- the Rose is especially evident -- too bad with the centering.

    Some sweet cards Mike ..... gonna grade the best? That Reggie # 200 looks awesome minus the ever present dirty black ink in upper right section. Just one of those cards like Brett from this set that are TOUGH TOUGH TOUGH to find a clean card.
