Yowza!! Awesome achievements, both of you!



Um, Cobb prices seem to have increased a tiny bit in the last 38 years, 5 months, and 23 days.

My quest began in the 80's too, but I don't have a specific date. The cards were Tinker bat off, Evers Cubs on, and Chance yellow. My Cobb bat off was a little more than $100.

I'm at 30 now after a couple recent pickups. Slow and steady wins the race!

Oops. Sorry I missed these two. I'm going to go eat worms. After that, I'll post a spreadsheet for how many worms I've eaten.

I am up to 133/520. Built a good checklist to track percentages: 25% of 520, 28% of HOF cards, 24% of SLers. I have put together my own estimate of the total cost, and I am 21% of the expected cash. As time has passed, I get less and less excited about O’Hara/Demmit St Louis so it may be that I do 518. Anyhow, here are some of the better pickups so far. Thank you to many on this board who have sold me some fairly priced cards.

Just crossed off a bunch after a crazy summer, I am at 504 with some spendy cards in my future! That's the fun part of the hunt!

Set #2 for me (#93 on your list) can be removed. I got it to 520 and decided I didn’t need 2 sets. It’s on its way to a new home now. My 680 is great and better than ever!!

125 for me, most for a raw binder. 12 slabs for a Boston Red Sox case

Taking a break now! Unsure if I’ll go 520…but I’m young!

Everybody's updated!

P.S. Troy, you still have a trambo (3) set on the list with 30 cards. Should I remove that one? Lemme know.

That's the sole reason for my existence.

Everybody is (should be) up to date. Let me know if you find another card in your sofa....or the neighbor's sofa (even better).
