I thought you guys might want to share in my fortune. Not to long ago, I bought a box of 2000 Fleer Greats of the Game football of of Yahoo for $20.00 plus $6.00 shipping. I pulled a Mean Joe Green auto and I pulled out this gem. A Tom Landry Cowboys Clippings SP that has a piece of his game worn fedora. It books upwards of $400.00. I don't know if this makes it more special, but my card also has a two colored piece of his fedora. Pretty good return on my investment, I think! I left a picture for you guys since BGray and Iggy helped me figure out how to do it!
Have any of you other guys got a great pull like this?

WOW, now that's what I call a game worn! Nice pull... I bet you'd have no prob selling that!

Wow JP that is sweet! I say that as a long time Cowboy fan that thinks Landry is one of the greatest coaches ever! Definitely Cool!


My best pull was probably when I bought 1 pack of SP Authentic Basektball and got a Steve Francis Rookie FX card. I liked the card quite a bit but I enjoyed the $600 I got for it on ebay even more! ;)

I was thinking about putting it up on Ebay, do you think that I would get much for it? I know most cards sell for way under what they book at.

i would try to sell it on here and other sites like it first......then go to ebay as a last resort

Nice card, Definitely one I wouldn't mind considering the Cowboys are my favorite team (Keep the heckling to a minimum) and Landry my favorite coach. Haven't followed football in a long time though, got more into hockey cards which is to bad as they just don't carry the same bv power that the other three main sports do.

I once pulled a Carl Erskine autographed game used jersey from a box of 2001 UD Legends of NY. The last pack I opened, I pulled a Roger Maris game used bat /60 worth $120. Together the pulls were worth $160.00. Not bad for $40 on the box! :)

Nice Landry pull! Congrats.

I think the best return I had was buying a 3 pack bargain package from 7/11. The ones that have 3 packs of an various older products they sell for 5.99 canadian. I pulled a 98/99 QUad diamond Steve Yzerman, Booked at 200.00 that was the greatest return for cost I had.

That card is not only cool, but it is a piece of history!

JP... very cool! now cash it in for money before it becomes worthless.

I thought my Dwight Goodens, Darryl Strawberrys, and Jose Cansecos, and Ruben Sierras would be really valuable some day.

Now, they're just taking up space.

lolol (in a painful way)

I think that everyone has cards like those.

Unless you really want the card I would say to try and sell it now. All of the game used cards have been falling every year because they make too many of them.

The best pull I had was a 93/94 Leaf Mario Lemieux auto from a box I purchased for $25. It was my first and only hockey box purchased.

pwaldo....yea, I agree.

when will the card collecting industry wise up and start paring down the available number of products, not to mention the quantity of them

If you're going to make 1 billion Donruss cards, it's not going to be worth much --- witness the 1988 Donruss.

Damnnnn! they were more expensive to buy back then than now.

jpsmiley, did you ever sell this?

Tim

Tim

If you couldn't sell it, trading for a multiple number of cards was a wise move.

Sweet deal for you JP!! :D

Why can't I ever get some mojo like that?

Oh yeah, I guess it's cause I don't open any wax...LOL

Anyways, great going on your cards JP!

Peace,
Rima

WOW great pull....the only other HUGE pull besides that was CWSportscards a few weeks ago.

WOw, great pull. I still have never pulled anything like that yet.
