Is it possible to do that Freddie?
Yes, I can do just about anything with the list given the time and inclination to do it.

Yes, I had already expected such a request to be made by those with extras listed.

Honestly I never noticed that there was a value attached to the collection. When Beckett values 98 Topps Tek Defractors at .40 – 1.00 and you’d be willing to pay 10 times that along with part of your collection being valued at “NA”, why acknowledge the collection value. Beckett is a great tool to use along with others sources to determine a card value but never a collection value. I have over 100 cards valued at “NA” that adds a total of zero to my valued collection according to Beckett. I just paid 200 for a Juan signed Ted Williams 151 card that will add what to my collection dollar? As every Juan collected has seen, your return on investment will be in the red and I certainly don’t care to see how red that has become the past several years. But adding a multiple card dollar won’t hurt I guess or even assigning a generic low – high value to cards that Beckett hasn’t valued. Any info that collectors can use to motivate them to collect is a value. Just know that your collection cost you much more and is probably valued at much less.

Just an opinion,
Jonas

Defractors are at a $1.00 because I forgot to change the value when I input those cards. Beckett doesn't list those cards.

Pure luck my friend! When the Ted card came up on ebay I placed a bid as soon I seen it and pushed it up in price. I did that because I expected to be outbid at the end with someone who just has more money. But I wanted everyone that sells cards to see the value of those cards with the hope of additional sellers. I got lucky enough that someone contacted me and said they had one of those cards and asked if I would purchase it. Needless to say it is now in the mail and on it's way! I'll scan it with my scanner once I get back from vacation on the 23rd. They both should be here by then waiting.

Shit, now I'm going to lose the $18 for the 18 cards that I'm sure I paid about $600 for. But I really thought that was a keying error to begin with.

Why didn't you bid on the 97 mirror gold 142 card? $11 is cheap for a 97 card that has a reported 30 card print run. Hell, I almost went higher just to remove it from circulation.

I didn't know it was only limited to 30. The select cards have the print runs on the list but the certified cards don't.

Someone want to list the print runs for the 97 pinnacle cards so we can update the list?

I see those mirror golds way too often to be only limited to 30.
