[JBird]

Kev i have an '86 complete set although i am not in the Pitt area. if you end up wanting to pay for the set + shipping (probably fit in a flat rate medium box i think is like $13) let me know.

Oh sure. Now I hear of someone that needs 1986 Topps baseball cards. I threw out about 3000 last fall. Nice going Kevin.

I know the feeling. I have Topps and Topps Traded Sets from 2013 down to 1968. If I had a hole like that, it would drive me crazy. I keep mine in albums too.

So, I forgot about this thread... Sorry for the lack of response.

Late last week, I found one in an auction. $15.50 in a binder with sheets and free shipping. Somewhere in there, I think they paid me to take the cards....


So as the story goes, I went to put my 87 in a binder this weekend. I open it up and it is 88!!!?!!. I bought it for $5 at National, so it is not a killer - except now I have 2 88s and no 87, so the search begins again...

I now have an extra 88, 89, 90. I have them on Craigslist basically trying to do a $3/15 deal because shipping costs more than the cards - and no one is biting...

I told my son this weekend, that I am going to be the smart one. Everyone is in the process of throwing them out now, so in 30 years, they will be more scarce and suddenly there will be a run on them, I will be the smart guy with 2 sets of each of those years!!!


One can only dream..

Incredible that at the time I bought those cards thinking they would be a good investment.
