Collector Zone _ Show and Tell _ My #d 264/xxx SPx Collection...06-01-19

Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 4 2007, 07:55 PM

For those that haven't seen my collection, I specifically collect sequence # 264 or 0264 in SPx football. Example below...following the footsteps of Jaderock, I will share with the rest. (BTW...264 is short for my birthdate, 02-26-64).

You need to drop by more often...I knew you collected 264, but who's that Reggie Bush guy?!? hehe!

Here's an odd question...have you ever gone to a signing and asked for the inscription "264"?!? Now that would be COOL!

Posted by: dc_o Sep 5 2007, 06:14 AM

Very nice cards.

That's a novel idea. I should collect 911, because that's my birthday, 9/11/78. Which is next week, by the way. I have a bad birthday. It makes me sad.

Will be around a little more. Actually, of the thousands upon thousands of ebay pictures I have looked at the Reggie was the first that I found of 264 that didn't come down in my search. He had it as #d264. But this week found the second such lucky item by looking at all the pictures and it was another Bush, Michael that is. Don't have in hand yet.

2-64..2-64.. hut hut hike.. "GREAT"

man that boston like my dewayne bates is fading terribly! Yea, it is, but only one 0264.

Here are a couple more:

Yea, last year I had all the gold versions graded. Still have the VYoung to grade and just picked up the Mario Williams and another 06 from the bay. Depending on the player and conditions, I will slowly grade the rest. My 04 Phillip Rivers got a 7.5 which sucked. But it is slabbed and staying in my possession. Will send the AD from this year in as well. Usually like to send about 10 at a time, using the promotions or discounts to do so.

What is your longest "dry" spell and what was your best "week"?
Which card cost you above and beyond the normal serial number simply because some one KNOW you wanted 264...if that's ever happened?

Posted by: aka spider Sep 11 2007, 10:56 PM

Wow Bob you have a sick collection smile.gif. can you help me out here smile.gif

Bob,
Those are some nice cards. An interesting collecting condition. It must be sort of frustrating when you see a card you like and would want but it's got the wrong #.

The longest spell was probably this summer, a good 3+ months. It is always a feast when the new product comes out, and fortunately when football starts more of the older SPx begins to show up. Picked up a couple 2006, still waiting in the mail. And just won the 2000 Lavernues Coles last night.

Best week, probably was when I got the Bush, Leinart and AJ Hawk last year.

The above and beyond award goes to the guy who held the Vince Young hostage for $350, when they were selling for $200 at the time.

I am glad to see your Brunell post is still alive and well here. What about you for the same questions above?

Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 15 2007, 05:30 PM

Today's mail addition has bee about 2 1/2 months in the making. Seller with low feedback of 25, had this card in a lot he was selling. Well, winning bidder with zero feedback won. After a couple of weeks I saw no posting of feedback for either, so I emailed the seller to see if he still had the lot. Assumed he shilled his own auction and won. 2 more weeks went by with no response, so I emailed him again. A couple of weeks after that, I get a response saying he still had it and what did I want to offer. So, I make an offer and a few more weeks, I ask again if he got my offer. Finally, I get a response of yes and an address to send money order to. Well today it showed up, not the greatest autograph or player, but an addition to my PC.

Actually in the beginning I have had several with that number. Once I realized the amount of $$ I was spending I trimmed my collection to just be collecting SPx.

Peter,

I figured you had all the "hidden" sites. wink.gif I have picked up a couple off of Yahoo auctions, Naxcom and Beckett. All the rest have been pilfered from the bay. Haven't had any luck on any of the trade boards. Like you I figure if the word is out there, someone will eventually run across one for me at a shop/show, whatever. But, hasn't happened yet. Keep the ole fingers crossed.

Bob

Normally, I don't talk much smack and cautiously optimistic about all Buckeye games. I have seen LSU a bunch this year, they are beatable and truly believe that THE Ohio State University will prevail in this game.

Now for the greatest FREEBIE ever, to date anyways...yea it is only an $8 dollar card, but it comes with a story.

Mid-November I spotted a lot of 2000 SPx that included a 264. Couple days go by and seller ends listing, I was PO'd. So I email the seller to find out what gives, no response. I let some time go by and send several other emails with zero response. Dec 28th, send another email, and on the 30th I get a response with they buyers email. I email the buyer, explain my weird focus and he asked me to email after the holiday and he would look for it. January 3rd, I get an email response saying that he found it and for me to send him my address. I did and received it today. A wonderful freebie....first every football 264 freebie....shoutout to Dino Hazell (ebay: guywithstuff ). Oh...and it is a Packer (ex).

I could only wish that they were that easy.

I have read some of your stories, so I think it is pretty interesting to share what we experience in our hobby. At least he didn't hold it hostage, like we have both experienced.

FOr every nice story like the one you shared, I can literally come up with 20 icky stories. For example, I'm at NINE jersey #/jersey # Elite cards (including the Gonzalez 11/11) and the guy still hasn't said "yes" sad.gif

I don't know that I would. Before I narrowed the focus I use to have a ton of SPAs, but man would that get expensive....if I had to choose, it would be the SPAs or LCMs.

Mark,

Yes I will chase all. As an example I have both #d /350 and /1650 for Travis Wilson and Derek Hagan. 07 Gives three chances to get the number with the base RC #d at 299, 699 and 899. Have a couple of players that I do have two of theirs. Hope I have answered your question, thanks for looking.

No, I have been buried at work, won't get a chance to go searching until this weekend. I thought someone said they were going to scan and post. My old shop back home said they won't get theres until Friday. So, I hope they hit the locals pretty soon.

Posted by: road_runner_1964 May 12 2008, 10:39 PM

It has been almost officially one month since I have landed a 264 SPx RC in football. So, I decide (ala Jaderock) that I would try to post each of the 264 collection not already posted in the thread. So in verifying which ones I hadn't posted, I ran across a post where I didn't have the card checked off. So the official count is now 123.

Yea, yea, I know...... laugh.gif (Here is one that has been posted prior to being graded)

I do, I had a bunch in the beginning when I collected everything #d 264. Got way to expensive, so I chose SPx (middle/hi end) and sold off everything else. I do wish I still had some of the SP, I did have the Manning once and just saw it up on ebay again. I will pick some up every now and again, especially since I haven't found any FB SPx #d 264 since the Beckett article came out.

Today was a disappointing mailday. I purchased what I thought was #124 of my SPx #d 264 collection.

I purchased a lot of 5 SPx cards that had a 07 SPx Ben Patrick 264/699. I get them today and it was actually 284/699. Man am I bummed, emailed the seller about my disappointment. He did send a freebie with the cards though.

No luck at the card store... 2 spx rc's in the whole place, and i had to dig to find em.. chris brown and ontario smith, not even close. I did find an insert 064/599 and one 265/599 but that was as close as I came sad.gif

Oh yea! Was hoping it would be here when I got home. But, is coming from Canada, so it is taking a little longer.
