100% on any collection is AWESOME! Congrats...do you continue to get duplicates here and there or are you chasing the #1/1s now?

Here's my TOP TEN questions for the supercollector (scans would be cool too!)!
1. What is your #1 favorite card?
2. What is your favorite parallel or insert (not auto or GU)?
3. What is your favorite Auto card?
4. What is your favorite GU card?
5. What is the best story in regards to obtaining a specific card?
6. What is your best "steal" for your collection?
7. What is the most expensive card in your collection...what did it cost you?
8. What one specific card has eluded you till this day? and why?
9. What specific card (non base) do you have the most of?
10. How do you store your collection?

Thanks!

I tend to not get dupes unless its his national treasures rookie. I usually try and find his college or pro jersey # as well.


Here's my TOP TEN questions for the supercollector (scans would be cool too!)!
1. What is your #1 favorite card?

Hard to pick 1 card but it'd prolly have to be

2. What is your favorite parallel or insert (not auto or GU)?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v210/ryo1549/David%20Dave%20Thomas/scan0062.jpg
the red status..I wish i could find the 16/16


3. What is your favorite Auto card?

Would probably be the rose bowl ticket auto


4. What is your favorite GU card?

He doesn't have any yet =(

5. What is the best story in regards to obtaining a specific card?

Well the topps finest super was found by another user (patriotsguy) and he gave me a heads up I ended up giving a ton for it to get it done (duane here had it) but all in all it was worth it. IT was the last 1/1 i've seen.


6. What is your best "steal" for your collection?

Not sure I got any steals that I can remember.



7. What is the most expensive card in your collection...what did it cost you?


Most expensive was the topps chrome super. I paid $150 for it.



8. What one specific card has eluded you till this day? and why?

Will never forget it. Leave Certified mirror black 1/1 auto. It popped up on ebay as an auction. I emailed the guy explained if he'd end it early i'd give him $120. He said he had already sold it to KandK who had offered a lot less. It ****** me off to no end. I still have yet to see the card.



9. What specific card (non base) do you have the most of?

I have 20+ National Treasures auto rookies

10. How do you store your collection?

I keep them in top loads in boxes.
