Value of W514 Strip Cards

+1 on the ruth comment

Besides the Ruth, there`s a decent # of 1919 Black Sox in this set that many collectors are always on the hunt for. Good Luck

Thanks a million guys.
Since I do not sell cards, and these will only be in my small collection, I think I will go for it.
Thanks!

Actually they are one of the most collected sets in my experiences. The black sox players, including Jackson, makes them a perennial favorite. They are on the higher end of strip cards, as strip cards go. And I don't know how much but the cut down effect will affect value somewhat. However it won't be diminished as much on W514s (or other hand cut strips) as it would be on cards that weren't meant to be cut in the first place.

That's what I was thinking (hoping) too Leon.
I will try to get them from him/her and then post them.
Thanks

+1. W 514 strips seem to be the set to collect for the Black Sox. Have been outbid on these consistently no matter the condition.

Wesley, hope you actually pay for these cards, as opposed to some of your other transactions.

He sent me a long note about what happened and,
since I met him and his son at the National, gave him a second chance. Unlike many members he actually contributes to the forum quite a bit

Contribute or not, he owes my friends some money and has for some time. I hope no ones else gets burned by this guy.

He's a dirt bag using his son as an excuse to get cards, swap crappy cards and blame his son for "getting ahold of them first" Plus transactions never paid for.
Seriously Leon? Cause you met him he's ok? When longtime members of this board and the collecting community say he's a dirt bag? Tell you what, next time you meet him grab a few bucks from him for the people he screwed and tell him to stop buying cards till he honors his debts. He's a liar and a thief.

My understanding is completely different. My understanding is there was a mass piling on for no good reason. I have seen it done here before but not as much since some bad apples got shown the door. So what is the story? No one should rip anyone off and my guess is this is probably another gang mentality piece of crap. But I could be wrong?

Who and how much? I hope you guys don't just quack and run away. Let's hear it. Put up or shut up.

So that is a factor in your decision making?

[2dueces]

Here's the facts. You're defending some dickwad you met at the national over long time trusted board members. That is the facts.

Yeap
