Congrats.

But just to be an 'a**hole' , for a complete set wouldn't you need all 4 printing plates?...
The hunt may still continue?...

Thanks Owen, some are very nice indeed.
Maybe Fred, I think if they looked a little better, but I don't really like them. So at about $200 each, I'm calling them 1/4.
Although the Plates and Patches printers plate is a card with the plate glued to it, and it's quite nice. It was $335, not sure I'll chase the rest.

Wow, that is pricey! That's Tyron Smith, right?

Can someone explain the hobbies fascination with him, I know he had the SP auto in the contenders (and that price is off the charts) but he seems to always be one of the pricier autos?

Yes Tyron Smith. I have OCD, C is for collecting
Not sure why, his rookie stats were very good, only shining light on the Dallas offensive line for me.

Awesome cards.... The fact he plays for Dallas may have something to do with the price..... Now if he played for Buffallo????

Have you heard of this site http://www.checkoutmycards.com ?
American based site where people can send their cards in to sell etc and they have some nice hard to find cards. Best part is you can purchase the cards you want as you find them (some at great bargin prices) and then just ship them as one lot once a week / month or whatever suits.
