I passed on a Bobby Hull RC in about EX - EXMT at $85 because that was really just a $60 card. Within six months it was $600 and it never stopped.<br /><br />I missed an incredible Gordie RC at $135 because I didn't have the cash on me at the time.<br /><br />I did finish that set, though. Pretty much any '51 I post came from that lot.1967ershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13145022218460291801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3629531718057678439.post-60556309871699796182011-10-18T18:11:59.217-03:002011-10-18T18:11:59.217-03:00Wow guys, that sounds like I missed ONE HELL of a ...Wow guys, that sounds like I missed ONE HELL of a deal....<br /><br />I really need the card market to tank to ever see prices like that....did either of you finish the set?Pro Set Cardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223284558318605801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3629531718057678439.post-80423909485590075892011-10-18T15:31:09.718-03:002011-10-18T15:31:09.718-03:00I got about 90 of them in ~1987 from a mail-in auc...I got about 90 of them in ~1987 from a mail-in auction. Cost about $110. <br /><br />As to the pack, I'd want some actual evidence that this is from the year in question. So far, it's just an old pack. If that stamp could be verified, that might be something.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3629531718057678439.post-74391235855098047912011-10-18T12:58:48.439-03:002011-10-18T12:58:48.439-03:00I remember back in the day... late '91, early ...I remember back in the day... late '91, early '92, buying a bunch of 51/52's from an ad in The Hockey News.<br />There was no ebay then... the fellow gave you a choice of some star cards where you would get fewer cards for your buck, or commons, where you could get more. Send in $50, $100, $250 and you would get a stack of Parkies.<br /><br />We got around 75 of them for our $250... can't do that anymore....Captain Canuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02189853561737282234noreply@blogger.com
