So? can you give us a ballpark (lol) on the gold bordered mini cards?  I'd like to know this as well Hey Frank, they seem to be in short print and I would feel comfortable saying around 500 or about. The thing is they come out of the retail side and the dealers are over on the hobby side cracking open the hobby cases. But, still not many have shown up so that is about the run I would give it. Sounds good. Thank you. I see the gold border is now going for $1K on ebay. Hasn't sold, last I checked  As many are new to sports cards I highly recommend as these prices keep climbing that before you spend 10's of thousands for a single card, you make sure the card has been authenticated. There have been many counterfeit cards floated around over many decades . Unless you have been in this industry you can't tell the difference, but usually the ink is a little off along with other signs but, only to an experience professional. Happy treasure hunting  |

Good idea. Any one looking for cards pm me. Just looking to recoup my cost. I'm surpised the card folks show pic of them holding cards with bare hand. We in the coin community would never do that. Agreed. double sleeved (thin plastic and then top loader) as soon as the card is pulled. Expect the same with these cards, the rare ones. And only put the cards in special cases with free floating corners |

Something tells me that the new owner of that gold border will be using the 30 return policy over at ebay....those cards will be showing up here in a week or two, and much cheaper

Hey Guys! I am one of those Baseball guys from the Blowout forums. To update you on the print run on the Ginter X full size black cards (normal baseball card size). The print run is believed to be around 500 of each card. I opened 12 boxes and ended up with 6 regular black cards and 1 mini black card (less than 100 each). The average for 12 boxes should be around 4-5 of each card in the base set.
Regular Ginter (the white cards) have an unknown print run (probably a few thousand). The full sized white cards will be by far the most common.
I noticed some of you guys opening boxes. I would be willing to trade my crypto cards for some of your cards. I am keeping 1 for my personal collection.
I concur that the print run for the black mini's is around 100 or a little less and around 500 for the full size from the ginter X . I believe the mini's from the first run are S/P based on the boxes I am aware of that have been opened and the lack of mini's obtained. I still am not sure on the silver glossy card yet. . |
