I rearranged the lot some for the pic, so do not analyze the pic. to the descrip too much, just know you will get the content of cards described.  Also the Vintage box is not shown in this picture, I left it out by mishap, but it will come with the shipment, so add that to the pic. too.  DIO.    In the monster boxes you will find many individual, or two or so cards of current or former stars throughout that may not be represented in large numbers, many nice finds.  Again view my store lots and you will find the alike stars, but mostly different cards in this lot.  In general I do not gather/show commons or players that did/do not have a lasting impact on the fans, the game or their team(s).     PLEASE NOTE:  I realize a 5,000 count box does not contain 5,000 cards when sleeved and in bags, nonetheless I will make sure you have the claimed amount of cards in total as this has been considered.  DIO.       The year range in these lots cover most of each players career, so you will land many inserts, rookie cards, 2nd year, early and mid career years and latter years as well, alot of 80's cards early mid and late, nice shape.   If you visit my Store it will give you a solid idea of what this lot contains, absolutly NO JUNK or unwanted cards/players.  Also check back as far as you like with feedback, I have consistently offered items that bring very favorable comments.  for many players in the lot, these years for all the sports in their respective totals, a drone of Premium cards.  Also the last picMy personal collection contained/mixed within this collection consisted of mainly all the 80's years, through the mid  90's.  The 2-collections I recently acquired were widespread, but mainly hi-grade premium mid/late 90's through mid 2000's, thousands of these covering players early, mid and late playing years depending on the player.  It is a lifetime Superstar collection of my personal stock and a couple of the large Hi-Grade Premium lots I landed in the past year.  I finally compiled them or twained them into these beautiful player runs, alot of sitting on the floor and ignoring the family.     Book value has to average $1 a card, so do the math, I without conserve guess closer to twenty thousand than ten thousand.  Now stop and consider the condition, one would think $1 a card BV is a low estimate.  Huge and growing investment value.  Not many big dollar cards, but an absolute slew of $1 to $5+ book valued cards.  Let me add you wont consistently find 5 or 10 cards of a hi-calibur player like say a Greg Maddux (over 60 diff. Cards here) and 50 of lower calibur stars, although that is fine.  There is no deceptive plan, this is absolutely loaded with hi quality cards of nothing but super star after superstar represented.  You will find stars like the Fridge, Girardi, Hornacek, Coffey, Rodman and you will find stars like Cal Ripken, Barry Bonds, Tony Gwynn, Wade Boggs, Ewing, Malone, Stockton, Rice, Marino, Montana all with more than 40 cards each  in here, all different.  I have as a rule sold off most any doubles I find, thus just amassing cards brings the vast varietized spread of years.  The collection may lack an ample supply of a few of the most reliable movers traditionally such as, Jeter, A-Rod and Favre, but they are represented  in this lot still.  Just relating the collection does not lean toward the cheap side, just hard to hang on to piles of the select reliable few.      You may ask why, well I would love to direct my store toward deeper vintage rounding out my show of old and new.  This is in no way all my Star cards and nothing presently running in my store is being offered in this lot, save the Buy-it-Now Bonus.  Also with 2 babies to care for most of my waking hours it's just not possible (I have found) to keep up with listing as consistently as I would like, as I run the site alone.   I will pack this with the great care adding ample insurance and Delivery Confirmation.   DIO.    Please view the "My World" info page to learn of the strict card condition requirements for my store and you should know this is my store inventory I have prepared to display over time.  VERY FEW MULTIPLES/DOUBLES, absolutely a huge widespread variety, extremely unique.  You will stay in a state of astonishment as you wade through at the consistent Super Star caliber, hi-quality condition and spread of years and companies/sets represented.  CHECK OUT the Kerry Wood Lot and these are some of the sets represented you will find in the Baseball section.  The Football, Basketball and Hockey Player Lot sections center mostly around late 80s - early and mid 90s, so many are retired or near, but they have a mix in of years extending both ends.  The baseball is spread out liberally with former and players of today. The other picture is of some of the better inserts and cards from the lot, but there is many of similar value within the many players' lots.       All cards pictured go to Winner and more.   Free card w/ every shipment.    BUY THIS NOW and I will extend a $100 credit trip through my store, just email your selections and I will end the listings and send them along, a kick-back on the ship fee.    What a collection to help your kid(s) work for years to come or starting your own card business, or just to always enjoy.   Thank you.  DIO.    Most probably closer to 13,000 cards than 12,000 as I did not count them one by one, way over 12,000.   You  won't want to return this baby, but no return unless wrong item shipped which will not happen.                                    Powered by eBay Turbo Lister Place a Bid!
