i opened 30 cases + 300 boxes+ of the 98 collectors choice series 2 and got 2 of those! do a google search on those boxes or packs NOTHING! there are none left to open,they were so cheap to open THEY HAVE ALL BEEN OPENED.ALSO THERE ARE 1000's of insert builders out there. with those sets i am one of them.all the collectors choice inserts sets i am building.i am missing 40 of the 94 gold sigs have a complete set of 94-96 silver sigs missing 25 95 gold sigs.i am missing 3 98 series 2 triple's i did not even bother with the 4 star home run because they are not out there. even the 99 ud choice starquest gold are tuff! but not as so the 98 home runs.i think a lot of them were destroyed! for whatever reason. i also gave up on the 96 series 2 gold sigs,they are like finding hens teeth! also i think there are way more mirror golds then they say there are "Stated print run of 30" B.S. why do you think they did not serial number them? but yet pinnacle serial numbered a lot of inserts that year! sounds like a load of crap to me that only 30 were made. look at the 97 mirror golds.how many of those do i have? STATED ODDS 1-299 LOOK AT IT THIS WAY,IF I OPENED UP 6279 PACKS 627 CASES AT 5 BUCKS A PACK WOULD HAVE COST $31,395 AND GOT A MIRROR GOLD IN EVERY 299 PACKS AND ALL WERE JUAN WHAT WOULD THOSE ODDS BE? MORE THAN A GOOGLEPLEX! THERE ARE 150 CARDS IN THE SET! THE ODDS ON PULLING ONE JUAN IS 1-44,850 PACKS AT A COST OF $224,250. SO THE TRUE COST OF MY 20+ 1997 JUAN GONZALEZ MIRROR GOLDS ARE $4,485,000 SO WHY DID PINNACLE GO BROKE????????? THAT IS ONE CARD FROM ONE SET OF ONE PLAYER. NOW TIMES THAT BY 150 PLAYERS SO WHY DID THEY GO BROKE?

one card........ how many cards do we need to run up? I bet you paid over $100 for your 1st 97 mirror gold.

so you are the one who put PINN out of business. they took their $4 million and said, thats enough, Ill think I will go home.

you are the welfare for card companies Mr Obama.... you gave them no incentive to keep working - j/k

$28 in 2000 at a show. and for the 96 a PSA9 for $110 at the end of 2007.

do you know hard hard it is to give up a serial numbered to 10 card is? the only one you have of Juan? and may not get another one? hum? VERY! just to show you that set builders are out there and also jacking up the prices,here is one i just sold to a vistor to this site. i told him i do not sell Juan's that i only have ONE of.he or she was very persistant.so i said make me an offer i can not refuse!

this person came back with $125 no B.S i paid $100 for it almost 2 years ago!.now it is Juan Gone! that was VERY VERY TOUGH! it is not Roberto and myself just doing it. watch out for the super set builder!

Rob,

I randomly pulled out one small box of cards and looked at the serial numbers. So based on you set collector theory what would the following cards fetch from my one box:

2004 Timeless Treasure Rookie Year Materials X/5
2004 Leaf Certified Mirror Emerold X/5
2003 Donruss Gamers X/10
2004 Donruss Press Proof X/10
2003 Leaf Limited Threads X/10
2004 Studio Proof X/10
2003 Absolute Tools of The Trade X/10
2003 Donruss Timeless Treasures X/10

Do I need to look at some of my other 538 cards in boxes?

538

am i to have card envy? ask Chris not me! and if you have those why are they not on your list? ohhhh thats right what do you know,you only have 538 cards!

careful all.............. my ebay acct has been hacked and bids have been placed on cards. working to get it resolved now but ebay stinks

i thought so! very sorry to hear that, good luck with it.hope they find the A-- HOLES!!

ON THE OTHER HAND I WAS HOPING YOU WENT MADD!;)
