You've done good, my friend. The Steve Smith card is a real good looking card as well.

Congrats man! You should get a nice display to display both of your Preferred sets. What card do you have left?

Thanks man! I would love to get a nice display for them, I'd have to find something big enough to hold 230 cards though, I don't even know where to look around here for something like that....

Yeah, I am not sure. I always wanted one of those giant glass display cases you see in card shops but I bet those are not cheap! Congrats on finishing your set! How many cards do you need from last years set?

Thanks, the last one I need for this year is Tom Heinsohn, and it is on the way. For last years I need 7 - Durant, Pat Riley, Christian Laettner, Chris Paul, Dennis Rodman, James Worthy, and Toni Kukoc. I am actually getting ready to pick up the Durant, for $200 and my Certified Dirk auto #ed /15. I have been talking with a guy for months and finally we were able to come to a deal. Kind of steep but the Durant is #ed /10 and I know this is probably my one and only shot.

I would love to get a display like that, I don't think the Mrs. would let me put it in the house though lol.

The Durant doesnt seem that steep being it is /10. My wife is also the same ha ha. Before we had our daughter i had a nice display that she actually made for me. With the new addition the space is limited so all my autoed pics are in the closet. Im trying to convince her to let me create something to display ha ha

Haha that is funny stuff, I actually had a nice room with jerseys, photos, signed balls and all that, but when my daughter was born it got turned into the nursery, I can't complain I'm glad my daughter has plenty of space but I have been dying to get something set up again. I have a small corner in the bedroom that I get to display a few things but it is not adequate.

The Durant, The reason I say it seems high, is because when preferred first came out, the Durant #ed to 10 was selling right around $200, and the last one that sold was the Blue version #ed/5 and it only sold for $248. But the guy I'm dealing with is from Oklahoma and he paid I think it was like $207 when won it. I can understand him wanting to make something off of it. So he is basically getting a $125 Dirk auto as profit.... When it sold on ebay probably close to a year ago, I looked up the sellers feedback, found the guy who left feedback for it, messaged him and that is how I got into the negotiations with him.

That is exactly what happened in my situation too! I had my Jordan, Durant, Ray Allen autoed pictures on the wall...all my Jordan shoes displayed and had a nice display for cards. I too cannot complain because I would rather have the room for my daughter than my stuff but I am itching to get a space too. I would need a full room though for what I would like to do Good luck on the Durant. My thoughts are just pull the trigger now. It may not surface again for a while. That and you know the value of his cards will remain consistent.

Well I guess I do still get to do some more updates, I hadn't really thought about the Redemptions being redeemed. These two and the James Worthy make 3/12 redeemed so far. Not bad, it certainly has me hopeful.

Ralph Sampson #ed 09/74




Dan Majerle #ed 12/74

[TBarn291]

Well this was the last one I had to purchase. Technically the set is complete now, although I still have 9 more redemptions I am waiting on.

Tom Heinsohn #ed 26/50 - Completion 100/100




As I get the 9 cards redeemed I will post them in this thread as well, the 9 I am waiting for are as follows

Bill Russell
Blake Griffin
Calvin Murphy
Dominique Wilkins
Eric Bledsoe
Eric Gordon
Loul Deng
Mitch Richmond
Nate Thurmond
