Man, I haven't seen any [BLANK] available in a long time
 
I was frustratingly looking for some of my favorite issues available, and finding nothing new (same ol listed too high BINs). I realized how long it has been since I have seen some certain cards listed that I used to at least see occasionally, so I thought it would be fun to have a thread where you could say, "Man, I haven't seen any [BLANK] available in a long time." So I will start it out:

"Man, I haven't seen any T215 Red Cross available in a long time."

When I saw the title of this thread, my immediate thought was "T215 Red Cross." :D

Have not seen any T210 Fort Worth players I need for a long time. Could be because I am cheap and looking for low end cards.:D

If anyone has any in the $40 or under apiece range I am your huckleberry.:)

Along that line, any T210-8 Memphis players. I haven't been looking for very long, but after looking back through previous sales, they are few and very far between. VCP doesn't even have records on 3 or 4 of them. Should be fun to chase eventually hah

Sam, you might wish to check out the Robert Edward Auctions blog. They have scans of some of their consignments they took in at the 2016 National. I noticed some Matty Dark Caps. I did not remember you said you wanted a perfectly centered specimen; however, REA is worth checking out. Perhaps you're already on their mailing list for a catalog.....

Wishing you well, bro. That's a great card, period. ---Brian Powell

That is a nice one. And I am aware of the premium centered Mantles command. Well worth it though, they just look so much better centered .

I seem to see them in small spurts... There sure aren't any in most auctions.

Back to topic question, I haven't seen any T216 Virginia Extra's in a while....

Brian

Since this was originally posted over 4 years ago, I still haven't seen any of these pop up. Not that I have been actively searching, as I got extremely lucky 15 years ago or so when I got mine for a type card (thanks AC), but these cards just don't seem to exist out in the wild.

In all seriousness I have been waiting a long time also for one to come up as well as an E221 that I need.

How about some e92 Dockman's in nice condition? Keep reading how these are easiest to find, but not really the case. Some come up for auction every so often, but not regularly that's for sure.

Starting to just collect any decent e92 now.... I should get into those T206's they're all over the place! Huge set though and gotta kicker card, I've been told.

M101/National copper plate Wagner (rookie), Anson, Hoy, Delehanty, Young.

Honorable mention to the more common nice vg-ex T3’s. Trying to finish my set and just haven’t seen the last 6 cards I need (some in PSA 5/6 did auction but went very high in prices).

Hi Leon,
How in the world does your Mantle rate a 2 and mine (not submitted by me) rate a 3? The inconsistency in PSA grading is extremely annoying and seemingly unjust. Beautiful card and much nice than mine IMHO. Larry

I make several searches every day for some of the more obscure T213-2's that are on my want list. I found a few cards last year, but so far, none this year. There are over 300 T213-2's listed on eBay at the moment, but none are cards that I need.

Newer to the hobby, but it feels like Cracker Jacks are cropping up really slowly the past six months.

Outside of cards – first pressing Misfits singles. They used to be a fairly liquid market, but there's been a real slow down over the past year and a half.

You mean the Misfits punk rock band from the early 80's? Loved them.

I thought vinyl was hot regardless. Shows what I know. I got rid of my teenage punk and ska vinyl about 15 years ago and was surprised at the prices I got.

Yep! Easily the greatest band of their era and a defining chapter in music history. I have first pressings of their LPs and the Evilive EP, but the singles are ridiculously difficult to get a hold of. Cheapest one on the open market right now is around $800. She|Cough/Cool regularly goes for $4K+ :(

The prices are hot, but the supply/liquidity isn't.
