Going for a white whale UPDATE: White whale still swimming :(
The title pretty much says it all. I'm going after a very rare and expensive card over the next few months so I am going to need to build up some significant paypal (as in, like 4 figures worth) to have a prayer of landing it.
Essentially any card marked FT in my org I am willing to sell- I am even considering moving some nice MJs that are on the fringe of my PC, such as a 1998-99 black diamond sheer brilliance extreme /23 and my MJ auto (2012-13 sp authentic letter auto /23, both are bgs 8.5).
In other words, feel free to peruse my org and either send a trade over with whatever you might be interested in buying, or shoot me a PM if you'd rather do that (or if I don't have the card marked FT since it's currently PC).
Everyone I currently have trades going with (cough TBARN cough ), no worries, I will avoid selling anything you have earmarked in the trades!
I hope everyone is having a great holiday season. Thanks in advance for looking!
I collect Michael Jordan, Mitch Richmond, and Ohio State players (football and basketball) in OSU gear. I strongly prefer 90's-era cards and use newer cards primarily for trade bait!

I think you might need to find Queequeg.
I am into collecting Charles Barkley, Steve Nash and Jason Kidd. I alos will collect Goldy.
Right now most cards are not in the trade section, but in my org, so look there first to see what I have and then PM me an offer and if accepted I will move it to the trade section, ready to be traded.

RE: Going for a white whale, so I need to sell!
As suggested earlier, I will be selling some nicer stuff from my PC to try to obtain the card I really want, so here are some pics of the nicer stuff along with some prices. Feel free to make an offer, these aren't 100% firm there's some wiggle room, but the prices I put here will be lower than when I list them on the 'bay. Would love to keep them in the beckett community if possible!

2011 UD All-Time Greats One-on-One Dual Book Autographs Magic Johnson/Larry Bird /5 BGS 9 $200

1998-99 Black Diamond MJ Sheer Brilliance Extreme /23 BGS 8.5 $205
2012-13 SP Authentic By the Letter Auto /23 Michael Jordan BGS 8.5 (REALLY thought this would get a 9, might be worth a re-grade) $345

1996-97 Skybox Net Set Michael Jordan PSA 9- $25

RE: Going for a white whale, so I need to sell! UPDATED with a list, few scans
You make me want to sell some so I can get your Bird/Magic. If you still have in a couple weeks I should have the $200.

I am so close to the amount you want for the first card in my paypal account. I have about 145 in my account, so I am wondering if you want a card to go with it.

Lol good luck with your white whale!! I haven't added the Jim Jackson to my Org yet because it hasn't come in. I am waiting for it to arrive from China. But that is cool though, I don't have any problems adding it to the trade. But the Dual JSY isn't available.

Sounds like you are going through what I did a couple months back to obtain the henderson logoman auto. Shelled out quite a few kobe pc cards and got it. Best of luck to ya.

Thanks! I figure worst-case scenario if I can't pick up the white whale (it's on ebay, ends in just under 4 days and the bid is already WAY higher than I thought it would be at this stage...I figure it will go for $1000-$1300) I can upgrade my MJ auto because I want one of him in a Bulls uniform even though they tend to cost more. I will also likely succumb to my wax-busting nature for at least one box if I have anything leftover!
Update also: Thanks everyone for the responses thus far. The sheer brilliance extreme /23, Bird/Magic dual and MJ auto are all gone! So the "big ticket" stuff, I guess, is mostly spoken for, but I have lots of stuff in that $8-$30 range in my org that's begging for a new home...every little bit helps so if I have anything you might want don't hesitate to get ahold of me!

Another update bump and some more dipping into the PC to sell stuff!
The sheer brilliance /230 BGS 9 is gone. The MJs below are all FS, prices listed. Again, maybe a little wiggle room, but not much as these prices will be lower than their ebay listings!
1994-95 SP Championship Playoff Heroes PSA 10- $25
1995-96 Metal Slick Silver BGS 8- $9
1997-98 UD Air Time #AT10 (the last one in the set that was way tougher to pull, books several times higher than the others) BGS 9- $28
1998-99 Molten Metal Xplosion BGS 9- this one I REALLY like and will be tough to get from me- $78
Also not pictured: 1998-99 Black Diamond Diamond Dominance Michael Jordan /1000 BGS 9: $32
Thanks again everyone!
EDIT: Diamond Dominance is gone. Remember if it's not pictured, but it's in my org, it can probably be had (for a price haha). Offer away!
