Initially I expected to maybe grab a handful, but after finding representation of so many obscure players on my collection lists, wound up placing an order of 150 cards - one that might have been even larger had I checked it out prior to so many of the 1990s inserts (Diamond Kings, 1992 Ultra, Black Diamond) already been claimed. Definitely hewed strongly toward high-end sets and oddballs, too.<br /><br />Additionally, very sorry to read about Latte's passing. We had two cats pass away in 2017, two more in 2019 (all of which we had for at least 10 years), and my girlfriend had both of her cats pass away between Dec-Feb (one suddenly), so I have unfortunately become accustomed to losing our longtime friends. I hope that you and your family are doing okay.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14229291739813356346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5342310663064800554.post-87979045172623232992020-06-25T22:15:28.311-05:002020-06-25T22:15:28.311-05:00Digging through dime boxes at card shows usually l...Digging through dime boxes at card shows usually leaves me with a sore back.

I ordered all 4 sports. It is tedious, but you streamline what you looking for. Player name and year and/or set. Hint- OPC is O-Pee-Chee.
