Polling the audience
Hey traders:

Wanted to ask the audience for help with my next purchase. There is a local card shop that has tons of boxes from the 80's and 90's which is by far my favorite era. My next purchase will be determined by you the fan! Vote on which box I should buy and I will post scans of my box break!

Liven Hernandez RC in 1996 Finest!!

I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

I've always been a fan of Stadium Club, not sure if any of these sets have any notable RCs.

To be honest, I like the Sports Illustrated. Great pictures!! If you or anyone buys a box, check me for any doubles, I have a set started and don't need too many. I also like the Stadium Club too. If the poll would have let me pick 3, I would have.

I only allowed 1 vote otherwise this could get expensive! Plus I like to break one box at a time otherwise it can get overwhelming between adding everything to My Organize and sorting them into boxes.

I've always like the Sports Illustrated sets. Sharp looking cards!

Well you guys really know how to pick a winner! Finally had time to stop by and pick up a box of 1996 Finest series 1.

Pulled a Roger Clemens Silver Refractor which paid for the box!

Other significant hits:

Base Silver Ripken and Puckett
Base Gold Johnny Damon
Bronze Refractors Chad Curtis and Dean Palmer

Will post scan of Clemens refractor later!

I really like the design of 2000 Bowman, but I'm going back to buy the other two boxes of 1996 Finest!

Three more boxes of 1991 Donruss opened today with no Elite inserts! Sad

Series 1 or Series 2?

I could use a Jerry Goff card if you pulled one, I think he was in Series 2 that year (green border?)

Thanks!
