1956 Topps Set - Revisited - 89 Remain

[frankbmd]

273 cards have been sold. Their scans have been removed. What remains are 89 cards. Hopefully there are 89 scans left in this thread.

Some cards have a price and some do not. Reasonable offers regardless of the price shown will be considered. Shipping will be reduced with larger lot purchases, even to $0. Single card purchases may require $1-3 to help defray shipping cost. Everything is fluid though. A strong enough offer will likely eliminate any shipping surcharge. Canadian shipping costs will reflect actual charges once the price of the lot is agreed upon.

The three big cards (Mantle, Clemente and Robinson) are available. Offers will be considered and compared to recent auction results or these three cards may well end up consigned. Of course without consignment fees, they may be a better bargain with a direct sale.

Thanks again to the many board members who have already purchased from this set. There have been no problems that i am aware of regarding the condition of the cards as described or packing and shipping.

If you have looked at this thread recently, check again. It is not radically different, but more accurate than the last time you looked.

24 separate lots have been sold from this set. Count yourself among the future satisfied buyers and join the ranks. Pricing is a starting point. Don't wait for them to be reduced, negotiate today.

You know it took a long time to create this listing and well over 100 cards have been sold, and I am thankful for that, but.....

It sure is taking you guys a long time to purchase the rest. If you think I am not receptive to offers, think again. There must be someone on your gift list who needs a 61 year old baseball card. And if there isn’t, look in the mirror.

[brightair]

Beautiful cards Frank!

[frankbmd]

Let’s move some cards.

I can’t ship anything for two weeks.

Until then let me know what cards you want for 18% off the listed price. If two folks want the same card, then the one with the larger order gets it. If you really want a specific card, you may reduce the discount by simple putting a number less than 18 after the name. In other words, Mantle 0 = the listed price, or Clemente 5 = 5% less than the listed price. The final list of sales will be posted on or about May 21st. With the discount reduction option (essential an overbid), no sales will be completed before the 21st.

Current base price for all cards is the price listed by the scan of that card as of 5/8/18. The discount is applied to that price. To help defray shipping costs for orders less than $50, the discounted price may be rounded up to the nearest whole dollar amount.

I will try to post a list of cards that have been requested in the first post in this thread until the 21st. Cards with 18 after them may be obtained if you choose to reduce the discount.

Feel free to call me Al, if you don’t understand the discount reduction option.

A bump from the other side of the dateline just to see if the resultant time stamp renders the bump illegal.

[frankbmd]

A wee hour bump

[whitehse]

I love your cards Frank. I just wish I had a rich uncle who could loan me some money to purchase the Mantle, Williams and Robinson. I would love to won those cards.

I guess maybe I need to find a finance company that will give me a loan. LOL

[emmygirl]

Hi Frank, e-mail sent. Thanks Jim

[frankbmd]

This historic event will close on the 21st. I am not setting a hard closing time because I will probably still be suffering from jet lag. On the 21st though I will give a fair warning roughly 3 hours before the close, which will be stated in that post. I will try to make the closing time when everyone is awake even if i'm not.

Also for the sake of making this a little easier on me, I am going to limit the discount reduction to 3% intervals. Thanks.

All cards remain available. The reduction sequence will be 18-15-12-9-6-3-0.

After that, if you still want the card add a buyer's premium in 3% increments.

[frankbmd]

Fair warning

Hard Close on Discount Reduction Option at 8 PM EDT today

For veterans and the military that’s 20:00:00 at Fort Benning

Your request, bid or offer must be made before the clock strikes 8 in Bangor, 7 in Baton Rouge, 6 in Missoula, or 5 in Walla Walla

[frankbmd]

Still have many decent cards available. I think the scans are up to date. My spreadsheet says that 127 cards remain.

Take a look. Ignore the prices, Make an offer. If you fill a box or an envelope with multiple cards, reduced shipping will be generously considered.

Mantle, Clemente and Robinson will probably go to an auction house, but offers will be considered on these as well.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks

Edit: I have removed all scans of cards that have been sold. I may have a few cards that are not shown here, but less than five. If I can reconcile my inventory with this thread, I will post them.

Disregard the number of cards remaining for any given team. If you do not see a scan, the card has been sold.

[frankbmd]

Major thread Update bump. See Post #1 for details.

[56Horsehide]

Frank - Cards received in great shape. Thanks for some great service and nice carrds.

Jim

[frankbmd]

Time for a revision bump.

Prices adjusted and are as firm as overcooked spaghetti.

Scans accurately reflect available cards.

Let's talk.

Volume discounts.

Shipping included.

[frankbmd]

In case you missed the last bump. 253 cards have now been sold.

Scans of all sold cards have been removed from the thread. I'm ready to delete some more scans.
