Alright, I'm going to try to finish up my Facebook Marketplace purchase in one last post here. I don't think I'll have any pictures because this is mostly for me anyways.
I was at $44 dollars worth previously.
1991 Studio Set, missing just 7 cards. 51, 53, 112, 154, 171, and 234 with Rod Carew puzzle - $5
Boardwalk Baseball All-Time Records Holders 44 card set - $5
Circle K All-Time Home Run Kings 33 card set - $5
So that puts me at $59.
I went through and pulled out 9 cards from every set represented so I could put them in a binder. Probably got about 25 different pages; everything from 1986 O-Pee-Chee to 1994 Leaf. I'm going to give each page a $1 value. So that puts me at $84.
Next I tried giving away all the other cards via Twitter. The guy that I found locally offered me D-Backs bobbleheads in exchange. i told him it wasn't needed, but if he wanted I did need one bobblehead from last year, so he gave me the 2018 Ketel Marte Luchador bobblehead and he even through in a Zach Grenike mini bobblehead that wasn't a stadium giveaway, but was part of a package if you made a donation to the Phoenix Children's Hospital a couple years ago.So I value those two bobbleheads conservatively at $30. My total now is at $114.
So for $100 I got $114 worth of value in my opinion between various cards and the two bobbleheads, plus I got 19 factory sealed Topps sets. Not bad.
Now, I'll be working on the contest that I mentioned a few weeks ago. I've got the prizes, but I haven't got the contest figured out just yet.
I did pick up another prize for the contest recently though. Not sure if anyone would be interested in a Ron Tompkins rookie card. In addition to the Tompkins rookie card, I have the 1956 Hank Aaron and the 1978 Eddie Murray RC.
With prizes this big, I might need a while to come up with the contest, so be patient.
Whoa! Those are some monster prizes.
ReplyDeleteSomebody's gonna be winning some pretty cool stuff.
ReplyDeleteI could live with a Ron Tompkins RC.
ReplyDeleteLol. Me too.
Deletesome classic cards.
ReplyDeleteWOW! That Tompkins RC is awesome!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on all the great pickups!
ReplyDeleteWow - great pickups!
ReplyDeleteWow nice. I recently picked up the Tompkins RC for relatively cheap. Too many sellers want a minimum of 3 figures.
