Retail box 2005 Topps Fan Favorites

[nerk01]

My local Wal-mart had two of these sitting on the shelf today. Figured I'd grab one. Boy am I glad I did!

24pks / 6 cards per pack. = 144 cards
142 cards in set + 1 auto per box + 1 refractor per box = 144

First I hit the auto, Rick Dempsey. Eh....

Then I pulled a printing plate!!!!
Yellow Plate #100 Monte Irvin! An old HOFer like him, I'm thinking $50-80 cash value. Anyone think it's worth more than that?

and finally I hit the refractor. John Kruk #d/299

So I'm short one card from the set. Anyone have an extra #87?

The auto could have been better, but the plate is cool...

As for plate pricing, the market for them has dropped a lot lately...

The printing plates, although 1/1 are not really worth that much, unless of course they are of the autographed version...

Recent completed sales on ebay of 2 Monte Irvin plates went for 28.xx and 30.00....

The only printing plate I've really made out on was a 2006 Topps Chrome FB Brad Smith RC Auto Printing Plate (Got $102)... Regular plates depending on the player I've sold for as little as $10, to as much as $55 Griffey Jr... The Smi
