    << <i>Judging by their other issues with programming, I doubt all the 50s cards pouring out at the beginning were supposed to happen the way they did.

    I think the way it's releasing them now is the way it was supposed to be from the beginning. >>



    Unfortunately, I agree... makes the most sense...

    and maybe they've been pumping more 80s garbage out to attempt to catch up to where they should be at this point.

    << <i>and maybe they've been pumping more 80s garbage out to attempt to catch up to where they should be at this point. >>



    I think this is the truth. If you guys remember there wasn't just a 50's run, but there was also a 60's run and a very large run of 1973 and 1975. Unfortunately that drained a lot of at least interesting cards and now we get to log in to receive our million 1987-1989 topps card. I believe it was intended for the releases to occur like they did at the very beginning... That day I was one of the first to access the site when it went live since I was home sick. The results are posted earlier in this thread, but I'll repeat here:

    Charlie Leibrandt 1993
    Brad Pennington 1994
    Pete Whisenant 1958
    Mike Schmidt 1987
    Josh Phelps 2005
    Marty Keough 1963
    Robin Yount 1987
    Mark Langston 1987
    Eric Davis 1988
    Karl Spooner 1956
    Checklist Card 1998
    Joe Mauer 2006
    Ellie Rodriguez 1970
    Claudell Washington 1990
    Bill Gullickson 1985
    Russ Nixon 1960
    Robin Yount 1989
    Charlie Williams 1972

    Obviously this kind of mix is a heck of a lot more interesting than what unlocks now.

    Nice! I think I'm somewhere in that ballpark too, but about 50 of mine were with RCRacer299 alone image

    It's certainly been fun.

    I just wanted touch on one thing related to the board and what you are seeing posted. If you recall, when they started shelling the cards out, the rate of 50s cards was only about 4.1% of all cards for about the first week of the promotion. I'd be willing to bet that is in line with what the overall % of 50's cards is supposed to be in the giveaway. Given that, you are not going to see many of the 50's cards on the board. The % is just to low for them to surface when they show the most recent 10 cards (which we know are not the most recent, but rather the 10 most recent that the program catches when it cycles around every 5-10 minutes). About 1:25 updates should include a card from the 1950s based on those stats and I think that sounds about right as well. It doesn't mean they aren't giving out cards from the 50s. In fact, I put in 14 cards AFTER they got back on track with the redemptions and got a 1956 in their, so I believe they are still going out, you just aren't seeing them on the board much b/c they represent such a small % of the overall promotion.

    kshorton says: i gots an Empire State Building card... seeking advice.. is this better and worth more than my psa 3 franco harris 1973 topps card which i defouled by trying to make a baby with ? Please advise. the franco card is graded.. the ESB card is not yet, and I do not want to have a baby with the ESB card.

    I'm just wanting to here someone say they saw a '52 or a '53... before the they showed a card only once, there were over 503 1952's given out and over 1,000 1953's. I couldn't imagine them keeping that pace for the entire giveaway (that was before the '50s run). I may be wrong, which would mean someone has to be getting one or the other sometimes.

    Editted to note oen thing: At this same point only 300 cards from 1957 were given out.

    nice, someone just got a 1959 Al Kaline.

    This is my current status: Opened some packs today and unlocked 6 more cards. ONE was acceptable but none were great

    This has been my sequence of trades:

    1972 Bud Harrelson In action for 1993 Barry Bonds for 1987 Will Clark for 1974 Mel Stottlemyre and 1963 Russ Kemmerer

    1993 Roger Pavlik for 1987 Robin Yount

    1972 Joe Torre for 1964 Jim King and 1969 JC Martin

    1969 JC Martin for 1969 Jim Campanis

    1964 Jim King for 1969 Cesar Tovar

    1974 Mel Stottemyre for 1975 Rick Burleson and 1980 Rich Wortham


    This is what I currently have:

    1992 Todd Van Poppel
    1993 Ed Nunez
    2005 Kelvim Escobar
    1985 Claudell Washington
    2005 Paul Konerko AS
    2005 Joel Pineiro
    1985 Father-Son Card Schofield

    1981 Rich Dauer
    1989 Ozzie Smith
    1987 Roger Clemens AS
    1988 Don Mattingly HL
    1988 Royals TL
    1986 Tony Pena
    1989 Mark McGwire
    1990 Curt Schilling
    2002 Rico Brogna

    Any thing that upgrades these newer cards would be a yes without much thought


    I also have these "vintage cards"

    1957 Paul LaPalme
    1958 Jim Grant
    1959 Bob Schmidt
    1959 Bobby Richardson
    1963 Russ Kemmerer
    1969 Cesar Tovar

    1976 Tippy Martinez
    1978 Dave Rader
    1980 Rich Wortham
    1973 Phil Gagliano
    1979 Jim Spencer

    Anything that upgrades those "older" cards may or may not be accepted. Only way these get traded is if they get upgraded!

    I will probably buy a few more packs along the way before collecting the haul so I'm still trading away

    Always looking for stars

    Looks like a traded myself out of the trading game, most likely going to wait for series two before anything can pop up. I have some more redemptions, but it looks like a losing proposition with no Mantle, an 50's cards coming one in 20 or so and redemptions selling at 4$ each

    Here are my current redemptions. I just offered the lot to Republicaninmass for his 53 Gilliam. Assuming he turns down my probably less than generous offer, I am open to trading all of my cards. I want to keep my Dodgers and the 75 Williams most of all though, and am looking for more Dodgers.

    Update; Interesting fair trade I just turned down from someone I think I saw on this thread:

    1956 Bob Kennedy for 1959 Bobby Richardson.
    I just prefered the Yankee card to the 56 but that was a very fair offer.

    Certainly better than the guy on this thread who offered me a 1961 Dick Brown for that card image

    WTF is Superfan? Does that guy even know how to use a computer? Every trade offer from him comes in the form of 6, 8 or 10 of the same card wanting to trade for the same card. LOL

    My tactic is just throw a bunch of carp trades out there and see if anyone is game. I get some funny as hell offers too.

    When I get a bizarre offer (say a 2007 pujols for a 1952), I typically make a counter offer of an 86 common for that Pujols

    << <i>My tactic is just throw a bunch of carp trades out there and see if anyone is game. I get some funny as hell offers too. >>



    This guy is offering say a 1994 common for a 1958 common and then that same 1994 for that same 1958 common, and again and again and again. all about a minute apart.

    Just thought of something though. Maybe he thinks that if there are 10 of that 1958 common card available, he needs to to make the offer 10 times to get to all of them.

    Too bad you can't message people on there

    I got 8 identical offers from him tonight as well:
    edit to add:

    which I just realized were the same two cards in the earlier post... then I got 8 of 1958 Bobby Shantz for the same card... Looking at the times they are 5-20 seconds apart...perhaps he thinks if he puts it up more than once it will go to 8 different people; and not 8 times to everybody that has the card

    1980 Rich Wortham

    Anything that upgrades those "older" cards may or may not be accepted. Only way these get traded is if they get upgraded!

    I will probably buy a few more packs along the way before collecting the haul so I'm still trading away

    I have 33 cards from 1980 to 2005 that I already have and don't want to pay shipping for. Would someone out there be willing to trade for a 50s or 60s card for all of them? It could be the bottom of the barrell common. Don't care I just want to get rid of these cards from my portfolio. I also have 6 1961's, 2 1965's, and a 1966 that are up for trade. I'm willing to trade down in years (say a 61 for a 63 or 64). But I would prefer to put them together and get a card from the 50s. I also have several to trade from 1970, 1972, 1973, and 1974 that I would gladly do the same thing.

    I have 364 cards in my portfolio, of which 88 are ones I already have. I would like to get that down to 276 and 0.

    Players I would trade for include: Alan Bannister, Don Heinkel, Dave Sisler, BJ Surhoff, Richard Wortham, and Rangers Players. But my goal is to get some oldies I don't have. Thanks.

    ElToro,

    PM sent. I just made the offer. The older Rangers I'm looking for are the guys that come back on Alumni weekend and sign. None of those guys do. I'd prefer the 1966 Sam Mele #3. I set up the trade on the Website. Thanks.

    Matthew:

    I have a 1977 Mike Wallace; if you come up with something about the same era and interesting; that card is all yours

    If you want to make several different offers; I'll figure one out or let me know what you have in approximately that time and we'll work it out

    Sad as it is; I think the 1993 Ed Nunez is also a Rangers card; no wonder they never won until 1996. If you need that one; figure out something as well

    I just had someone offer a 1969 Tim McCarver card for my 2008 Topps Todd Jones card. I know the McCarver card is not a Mantle rookie, but it still seems like a lopsided trade to me. Is there something about this Jones card I don't know about?

    << <i>I have 33 cards from 1980 to 2005 that I already have and don't want to pay shipping for. Would someone out there be willing to trade for a 50s or 60s card for all of them? It could be the bottom of the barrell common. Don't care I just want to get rid of these cards from my portfolio. I also have 6 1961's, 2 1965's, and a 1966 that are up for trade. I'm willing to trade down in years (say a 61 for a 63 or 64). But I would prefer to put them together and get a card from the 50s. I also have several to trade from 1970, 1972, 1973, and 1974 that I would gladly do the same thing.

    I have 364 cards in my portfolio, of which 88 are ones I already have. I would like to get that down to 276 and 0.

    Players I would trade for include: Alan Bannister, Don Heinkel, Dave Sisler, BJ Surhoff, Richard Wortham, and Rangers Players. But my goal is to get some oldies I don't have. Thanks. >>



    Have this if you're interested:


    Tom Gorman 1958
    Tom Gorman / Pitcher / Kansas City Athletics
    Card Number: 235

    Let me know... >>



    I already traded my 33 commons from 1980-2005. How about a 1961 for the 1958 Gorman? I have the following:
    99 Don Buddin
    117 Dale Long
    158 Pete Daley
    258 Jack Sanford
    342 Clint Courtney
    459 Terry Fox

    I could throw a 72 or something your way as well, to even out the trade a bit. Thanks.
