Default *** Exceedingly SCARCE group of 15 t210-3 Orange Borders -- SOLD!!***

I don't think too many people have tried going after this rare subset so I can't imagine there's ever been a group of these this size that have been made available before. So far, what we know is that there are 20 confirmed t210-3 OBs, most players with likely no more than 4-5 examples. This group here comprises a solid 75% of the set. Perfect for a collector looking to pick up a tough new project that has only been attempted by very few individuals in our hobby. As far as I'm aware, this would be the largest group made available to date.

Players and their condition grades are listed below. The cards range from some nicer examples, down to a couple examples that are kind of rough. But for this set, you truly have to take what you can get with so few examples out there to work with. The color is terrific on most of the cards...whereas t210s typically have bright fire-engine-red borders, these are a shocking neon orange instead!

Always up for trading for e107s, t204s or any sort of oddities/printing mishaps. Would much rather prefer to trade than sell the group directly but I'm happy to listen to cash/trade offers while I try to think of a price I'd sell the cards for

One note, as the group is a very significant offering for this particular subset, I would likely not have any interest in splitting up the lot.

Additional scans are available upon request. Thanks in advance for any interest....

Thanks Brady and JR, I appreciate the kind words!

Thought I might give people a small update. I'm getting a few requests about splitting the group up, which I expected. I will give some thought in the next couple days about doing so.

I'd still prefer to trade for cards that would help my immediate projects - e107s, t204s, d311s and printing oddities/mishaps from all sets. But I suppose I'll open this up and listen to all cash/trade offers for the cards individually. If it appears that most of the cards will go to new homes in this manner, I might go ahead and split the group up.

Thanks all....

Guys,

After giving this some thought, I'm probably going to hold off on splitting the group up for the time being. I had some cash offers from some people that were very fair, but the reason I was considering moving the cards to begin with was to trade for cards I needed and that opportunity unfortunately didn't present itself.

Asking $3800 and I'll still consider cash/trade offers for the group as a whole if anyone is willing.

Thanks all....

Good luck on the quest to reign in the E107 small set.

Figured I'd wait until after REA to bump this lot again. Asking $3800 on the group. If anyone out there was shut out during REA but still wants a unique item, this group may be perfect for you. Also, there simply aren't many of these cards to go around so anyone wanting to make a run at this subset would have a very difficult time going about it starting from scratch. This group would put you within shouting distance of completion immediately.

Additional/better scans available upon request....

Thanks in advance,
Bria

I'll do a one-time bump with these before sending them back to the vault. Knocked this group all the way down to $3400. Will consider cash/trade offers as well. Thanks in advance,
Brian-
