500,000+ Card Collection - Part III

There sure was not a lot of meat left on this bone. Hoping you still find at least one monster hidden away.

I was thinking the same thing. I hope OP didn't pay too much for this lot, that way he's having fun and just hoping for some monsters that weren't picked over.

Love the thread OP, hope you're having fun.

[stang_crazy]

Daaang some nice stuff for far. Even if it's not big money it's still nice. So many Phx Suns stuff I don't have.

There is a TON of WNBA stuff. We might need to have a chat, haha.

Thanks, I am having fun. I will make money on this lot, don't you gentlemen worry. I will be keeping a ton of stuff as well. There is value if you know how to attack it.

Not sure how well you can see things in the group shots, but let me know if you want any of it!

This box is probably going to give pejc300 and 3rdpedal nightmares, haha. Let's hope it's not all garbage!

[chelseafc11]

Basically trash aside from the leaf limited potential set (haven't sorted) and the leaf limited gold.

[chelseafc11]

Most partial sets, with a ton of 05-06 SP Authentic base. Near 98-99 Starquest set, only missing Kobe and Jordan at first glance. We shall see if those cards pop up elsewhere in boxes. I will keep that set if I can complete it!

[chelseafc11]

Couple dud boxes in a row! Random low-end 90s cards/partial sets. The Jordan Flight Team cards ain't half bad...

[pejc300]

OP, you might have said this already, but what is your ultimate plan? Are you going to sell all of these sets individually? Piece this thing out over the next year?

Any sets that are easily completed I am going to keep. Anything that is easy to sell individually, or as a lot, I will sell it. I use COMC so this collection is perfect for selling all the low end stuff in the collection. I might end up selling everything else in bulk, but I will take pictures of everything and let it go via auction or entertain offers for anyone who might be interested once they see what is actually in the collection. I’m not going to just take things from the collection to take them out. There’s more value in resale for having complete sets instead of taking out a $2-3 Jordan or Lebron from a set.

How far did you have to travel to pick up the collection? And did you have a huge truck? Wow........

Uhaul, yes. From Massachusetts to Maryland. Wasn't really that bad.

A few decent inserts here. This box was all over the place:

- 93-94 Ultra Scoring Kings Larry Johnson
- 95-96 UD Electric Court Gold Mitch Richmond
- Mitch Richmond Z-Force Vortex
- Kemp Flair Anticipation & Towers of Power
- Many other random inserts

[chelseafc11]

These are the contents of two shoeboxes (small two row boxes) - I Didn't expect to find one, let alone TWO Chris Paul Topps Chrome RCs, haha. Oddly enough, there were zero base Topps CP3 rookies in the group. Nothing else too crazy. Tons of stars still left in the 05-06 Topps products but no Kobe or Lebron which was to be expected.

[4Rookie4]

Nice chrome Paul's!

[sebreg]

Two TChrome Chris Paul?! very nice!

[chelseafc11]

Hit the mother lode of 1999-00 Fleer Tradition Base! They are semi-bricked, but maybe not so bad that I can't salvage some of them. Cool things:

- Masters of the Hardwood cards are awesome. They are embossed with foil letting. Underrated set for sure - 1:18 Packs
- a HUGE stack oof 99-00 Emeralds with a ton of stars and RCs. These cards were inserted 1:4 and RCs were 1:8 - I bet there is a ton of 99-00 Metal base in my future!
- Many other 99-00 Insert from Metal and Fleer

Lol, thanks for showing the Redd in one of the Hardcourt piles, lol.

[chelseafc11]

Had to take a pic since it has toploaders - let's see what it has, will update after lunchtime!

Hey you may want to flip through the 98-99 thunder stack from the back to not miss rave parallels

I definitely did. I know there are more stacks of 98-99 Thunder in the collection and I will check those as I sort. Thanks for the reminder!

It's the least I could do, haha. I'll try to provde some more eye candy in future pics!


Highlights from the box above:

- Van Horn Prodigy Refractor
- 06-07 Hardcourt Partial Set(s?) - Jordan and Kobe are in there, but no lebron
- Two 97-98 Finest Gold Embossed Die-Cut Cards (Kittle/Richmond)
- A few 02-03 Showcase AvantCards with one Rookie /500 (Drew Gooden)

No Electric Court gold in that big stack...

Hey thanks but i live in Spain now so would be too expensive for a free card. Unless you want some of my Chelsea FC cards and then we can do a mutual care package, lol.
I also need your TSC Extreme Corps btw.
The Kemp Flair Anticipation & Towers of Power are on my set list too.

[Mahomie]

Cool autos!

[chelseafc11]

A LOT of Bazooka! Gold Parallels, Minis, Stickers, Tatoos, etc.

There is a Chris Paul Quad RC Sticker in there. Haven't sorted the rest of it, but Lebrons were taken out (of 04-05 and 05-06 for base), Kobe was left in the 03-04 Base Set at the very least, so maybe I'll make a set of that.

[daeve]

Thanks for sharing! Your pictures are great - and if you happen to come across any rare-ish Ben Wallace let me know :-D

[da_man1980]

I may be interested if there are any Redd Bazookas. I know I'm missing a mini and a few stickers for my collection.

[swerve]

I'm enjoying the ride along. Keep'em coming.
