Geez man you are killing this set! Do you pretty much snatch up the card the minute it hits Ebay or are you trying to be patient and get the best price?

Will u be needing the mullin? Was the bird u snagged from an over seas seller by any chance.

Thanks! It pretty much depends on the card, the ones #ed/20 and 25 I tried to pick up first chance, but with the others, especially the ones #ed/74 I just kept bidding $10 on and if I got outbid I just waited for the next one, and for the most part I've got them for under $10 with a few exceptions.... last year there were many of the cards that went for over $100 like the Dirk #ed/15, the G. Hill #ed/15, the Rose #ed/10, the Griffin #ed/10 , the Kobe, #ed/49.... and others that were still really high like the Magic #ed/10, Kareem #ed /10, Oscar Robertson #ed/10 , D. Robinson #ed/10, the Hakeem #ed/15 and there are still a few big ones I need to get like the Durant #ed/10.... but this years were a lot easier because they didn't include a lot of the big names and the lowest print runs were #ed/20..... and for the most part it wasn't star players that were #ed/20 the stars were all bigger print runs mostly #ed/35, /50, and /74. I picked up a lot of the #ed/74 for between $3-$10. Unfortunately though all my other PCs have suffered, I have had a lot of big pieces come up and had to let them pass, but it will be worth it once I have the set complete.

Yeah I definitely need the Mullin! It is one that tends to go a little higher on Ebay and since it's #ed/74 I haven't picked one up yet. Have you picked one up? And yeah that Bird was from one of my favorite overseas sellers Card23HK.

Only got one in today, didn't have a chance to update until now. Another big one for the set

George Gervin #ed 06/25 - Completion 71/100

A couple big ones came in today. Well big for the set, #ed/20 and /25!

Elvin Hayes #ed 18/20 - Completion 72/100



David Lee #ed 04/25 - Completion 73/100

First thing first - Fantastic work. Once you're done you need to show a full picture of all next to each other.

+1 on this. And "Like" - whatever the kids are using nowadays. Never have I been disappointed about any card that I've ordered form him. That seller actually provided me with my Jim Jackson Preferred Red signature.

Wow! 73% complete already! I thought this would take you about a year to complete. You're on track to be done in about a month or two. Great job man! Do you plan to update your signature line with the new set when completed?
