Player collectors, 3-5 cards you should be able to find but can’t

Post by kukocitb »

Stealing this thread from Harper from that other place. What are you looking for? Hopefully we can help track down some card for collectors.

Top 5 wants (Kukoc edition)

1. 1996-97 Collector’s Choice you Crash the Game Silver Redemption #R4 I Have the silver holofoil version, but need the regular silver version.
2. 1999-00 Topps MVP Promotion #NNO. Print run of 100. Impossible to find.
3. 2001-02 Fleer Shoebox Retail Footprint #130. Didn’t realize this was a thing until about 3 years ago.
4. 1996-97 Panini Stickers Portuguese/Brazil #88
5. 2002-03 Upper Deck Beckett UD Promo #298

Not too many I'm looking to add, but the one card I'd really like to add is on eBay at like 2 grand, so basically overpriced by about 1800 dollars lol

There's a copy of the Watson on COMC but I'm not paying anywhere close to the $15 the seller wants.

Pics always help! Love the Murad product. I have one on my top 5 Robin Lopez for this thread. Those Upper Deck Lineage autos can be tough to track down. Thanks for sharing and I will keep an eye out.

COMC is a great resource for these kinds of threads. It's not a guarantee, but a lot of times, if you open the search query to include SOLD OUT items, you can at least find images of the cards you're looking for.

I feel like I *might* have that CJ Watson. If I stumble across it, I'll add it to your stack!

It's one of those cards that's beginning to haunt me a little. I thought I had completed the team set, and then realized I missed that one. I've only seen 1 copy of it since then, and it's been sitting on COMC because the seller wants way too much for it. It's actually a pretty cool team checklist, and the Artist Proof parallels look pretty nice (with a fairly low, but attainable print run).
