I will have a TON to ship to COMC, so if anyone is wanting to offer anything on them...please act quickly. I almost had a box ready to go, so I am sure I will be shipping by this coming Saturday...
Wow sounds like you stole an entire collection Sounds like they were mostly into Basketball.
Nice going on the star inserts, especially the Jordans.
Nice Eddie George stash too.

150 dollars for your estimate of 15,000 cards. thats 1 cent per card. lol, and it seems to be loaded with nice cards. Id say you made out well.

1995-96 Molten Metal Mashburn BV $6
alright..last post for the night...
The reason it takes me 3 times through to get a good handle on everything is parallels that I don't know about...
95-96 Metal is giving me fits tonight...I found about 20 Rookie Roll Call cards only because I turned one over for a card # and saw it started with an R. now..I have two Alonzo Mournings pulled just to go into the player case...have gone through hundreds of these cards...but now I notice some of them have gold lettering and I see a parallel called Silver Spotlight, but I am guessing those are going to be the gold ones...if anyone can give me an idea of whether I am right, i would appreciate it. How many of these have I missed? Seems they have about a 10X multiplier....
This from a shoebox in which I have found about half the cards are superstars or parallels again...
Don't get me wrong though...not complaining...except for those WNBA cards???
tonight I thought I would work on some oversized items...
start with 98-99 Skybox mini posters..47 of them including 5 David Robinsons, 4 Gary paytons, 2 Kobes and many more...saw some sell on the bay for $4 each
not sure if these are worth anything...Skybox Larger than Life of David Robinson and Grant Hill 1996 Collector's Choice Bulls Victory Tour, Game Night '97 Timbersolves, Hot Properties Tim Duncan and Michael Jordan, 1996 S5 Bledsoe, Penny Hardaway #115
been working alot of the boxes and folders the last few nights of cards that I knew were going to still be pretty much junk...still surprised when I come across handfulls of star cards and minor inserts...
but thought I would check out a few more of the nicer cards tonight...
Pacific Curtis Martin RC BV $10
Bowman Curtis Martin RC BV $8
several RCs..Emmitt, Aikman, Herschel
Thought this was over, didn't ya? No...I am still working this lot pretty hard about every night. Mostly pulling low end RCs and inserts, BV $1-4 for the most part, still plenty of cards to go to the website...I think I am closing in on another 350 cards on top of the 250 I already set...and those are all pretty much cards at BV $2 or higher, I don't want to list much for under .75.
I still find some occasional good cards...tonight I found a Topps Pan for Gold Pippen BV $10.
I have gotten lots of the 98-99 and 99-00 RCs...
What an insane lot. I wonder when checkoutmycards first started how they could exactly distinguish all of their cards from older sets (or all of the sets that are out there) Like that card that you said might be 10 times book value? Wouldnt the people at checkoutmycards easily miss that too? Do the people sorting these have some sort of system when you send them a huge number of cards?
They do make mistakes, i have found them in my lots and other peoples. But they do do a very good job. I believe they have access to Beckett's database as well so they should have a pretty good checklist of cards to choose from and compare against...
I bet you thought I was all done..didn't you. Nope. though I am getting close. I have gone through one of the 3200 count boxes in the last day...I will be posting quantites of players later...stll find an occasional nice card.
2006 Topps Chrome Refractor of Devin Aromashodu BV $10
it's funny going through this box and seeing all the NFL flashes..RCs of Dilfer, Shuler, Barry Foster, etc...marked at $1 or $2 now gong into my commons boxes or quarter books...
If you happen to come across any Mantle in the small amount of baseball please let me know.
Zero mantle cards...this lot did not contain many baseball cards..there is a lot on Craigslist though...
hmmm..going through one of the last stacks on inserts and noticed this one quite by accident, only because it was upside down laying on the table and I noticed the #ing on it...
20001 Vanguard Gold Terrell Owens #d/122 BV $12
it almost went into a quarter binder..may have to go look at the rest of the vanguards I have picked up in the last 2 years...
1997-98 Starquest Chauncey Billups #151 BV $12
