Decent run of Topps....all presented nicely in binders

Only the 1993 and 1994 Gold sets are incomplete, but they contain the Jeter and the key stars, missing mostly a few commons. Full checklists will accompany any incomplete set. I will still be adding cards to these incomplete sets up until sold.

Also included are the extra commons and minor stars remaining from building the 1986-2018 sets. Approximately 30,000 cards stored neatly in Monster Boxes, inclusive of Topps base set, traded, opening day and partial holiday sets.

Strong preference to sell as a complete run…with delivery or half-way meet being preferred transaction. I am in the Mid-Atlantic/Southeast region, so this probably will exclude those of you in the Pacific Northwest, but I am open to multiple delivery scenarios.

The 1976-1979 sets were auction-purchased in late 2021, upgraded and placed in Ultra-Pro sheets and BCW binders. Following are the original auction house descriptions for the ’76-’79 sets. I found these descriptions to be generally correct but some cards were modestly upgraded, mostly for centering and print flaw issues. I am sure there are still some outliers, but pretty consistent with the original descriptions:

1976 : “Stunning NM/MT set, virtually free from wear and gorgeous. The bad cards in this set are NM! Key Cards: #19 George Brett HOF NM (good left to right centering but off top to bottom otherwise NM/MT), #98 Dennis Eckersley HOF Rookie NM+, #240 Pete Rose NM+, #330 Nolan Ryan HOF NM (due to top to bottom centering), #550 Hank Aaron NM, #592 Willie Randolph Rookie NM/MT, #599 Ron Guidry Rookie NM (Due to top to bottom centering)”

1977 : “Sharp NM set and VERY uniform. The occasional touched corner or centering issue but a strong over all set. Sutter Rookie is NM, Dawson rookie is NM/MT+, Murphy Rookie EX/MT”

1978: “Wow. Can't quite call it a MINT set, but it's very close. Conservatively NM/MT most cards look pack fresh and razor sharp. Centering and print issues aside this is almost flawless. Murray has no damage, but is moderately OC has a few print marks and a paper flaw in the upper right which looks like a dot on the top border, Molitor Trammell is NM/MT but is slightly OC.”

1979: “Stunning NM/MT+ set with dozens, if not hundreds of MINT cards. Ozzie is unusually well centered about 60/40 left to right and has a tiny bit of a tilt to the image NM/MT. The best 1979 set we've ever had.”

The 1980-2017 sets are from single-owner, smoke-free/pet-free home, also fully in sheets and binders.

Attached are various scans/pictures of the key cards, views of the sets, etc. I didn't take a lot of pics of the modern sets aside from the key rookies but the sets are similarly conditioned.

To recap, for sale are 1976-2002, 2010, 2013 Upd and 2017 Upd complete sets in binders/sheets PLUS 9 monster boxes with leftover set-build cards from ’86-2018.

Asking $4000/ OBO. My cost alone in the '76-'80 plus upgrades is $3000+. The 30 binders and sheets are likely worth $500

PayPal is preferred payment method.

Not yet included, but I also have similar runs of Fleer, Donruss, Upper Deck and Stadium Club plus some partial sets of things like Topps Gallery, if anyone wants to entertain a big truckload deal. For that, I would consider cash and partial trade options

Please PM me if you have any questions...I am open to discussions
