You finished that gold set? I knew you were down to 1 or 2 with that Ryan that you were posting about.
Actually the other set collector is selling his 31 patches to me for an undisclosed price. I think this was a player collector because one of the regular jersey cards was up to $7. Normally a $2 card. Actually I am pretty happy with my patches. The only ones that are single color that I have are the ones that I have yet to see a multi color.
Way to go Jeff. Great to see a set completed. I think you have inspired me to finish my 20th anniversary memorabilia set I was working on. I have 50 of the 100, I think. Cheers!
Just wanted to let you in on a little something, and I'm not too proud of it.
I had introduced one of my buddies to your site a few weeks back. He's not the most "collector friendly" person in the world, and he was going to be a dickhole and try to snag this card from you.
Crisis averted, as I managed to talk him down and cancel his $100 bid. I told him to let a real collector complete his set.
I was not prepared to go a c-note on it, the only joy I would have had was to know that I was going to complete the set anyway with the 32 patch lot i am buying and that someone paid $50+ (my high bid) for a card they have no interest in.
I knew this was a possibility because many knew that I had been searching for the card. Thats why I posted on my page asking people not to do that.

I was watching it all week. Congrats on the pick up and the completion.
Congratulations! That's one heck of a set to complete.
Nice work man! Like I did with a set I put together last year, you will now find yourself wanting to upgrade patches.
It never ends.
btw, that went for more than I thought it would. You are not the only one putting the set together I presume.

Yeah, I finished. The Ryan took forever. And I overpaid for it with the patch it has, but #/20 doesn't come up but every so often.

Did the other set guy contact you? Or did you get him through ebay? Nice friendly takeover.

Anyway, thanks for talking him out of it.
