Who has a spare $90,000

[AyiosYiorgos]

i will chip in $500 and happy just to take the Jordan cards, thats all guys, happy to let everyone else take the rest..

 

[lilreddevil]

IMO the set is WAY overpriced !!!
I understand the sheer magnitude of a task putting a set like this together...
But its only priceless to the guy who did it. Worth 20k... maybe..
Would rather fork out for the BGS 9.5 set that was up for sale a while back...

Well it's an 'or best offer', so it's not actually $90k...

The set would stay within the members who contributed. This set will not be spilt up. This is an opportunity of a life time to be part owner of the world greatest set.

yes but where would the set actually stay then? each member gets half a week a year before he has to send it off to the next dude? and $100s extra would get racked up in the changing hands, which would also be endless.
to be honest i think the set deserves to be owned by a single collector...

This could be a possibility, we could all put our money in to a company and the company as a single collector owns it. We could loan it to Muesems or card shows for display purposes and possibly own an income out of it. The possibility is endless

c'mon Mak, you could be part of history.

 

[ooneil]

I figure if i put in $245.90 that i get to own it for a day a year - im in.:v:

im not really a 'part of history' kind of guy. more of a nameless face, quickly forgotten...
im also not into unofficial autos. would rather this set unsigned. i remember a few months ago this set came up, 50k, all cards graded 9 or higher, which id be far more interested in.
plus like someone else said, its pretty over-priced.

Keep going guys, you have raised a bit so far...........now all I need to do is sell off a kidney and all the rare coins I have "obtained" and we should be getting close to the mark!

Classic thread.

Cheers
Matt

I need some commitment guys, any amount would be good.

I think I know why you have a liking to the 'Dream' team!

Because nothing is out of reach for you!!!!

 

[anakinleo]

Are you serious?

C'mon Leigh

As the originator of this thread, surely you can contribute. Instead of admiring from afar, you could be owning the set.

Kidneys and coins are not worth anything...it is the aspiration to think big and own big which is the most important. Let's see how far-sighted OCT members are!!!!!

Now, on a serious note, any thing from you? No matter how small would be greatly appreciated.

Adam, we all need to dream.... that is how we reach our goals.... anything contributions from you?

 

[drob50]

Your in sales aren't you??

Do you work for the guy selling this set?

 

[anakinleo]

Not in sales, just a crazy card collector who can sniff potential from afar

 

[drob50]

Well you should be. If you ever move to perth, I could put you to use!!

Slobby said he will trade his whole Pippen collection towards it BTW.

Not a chance but this thread is giving me a chuckle, I don't mean to be rude but this is starting to sound like one of those pyramid schemes.

Good luck with the fundraising and if it works I will have egg on my face.:v:

 

[ooneil]

$10.25 gets you ownership of the set for 1 hour per year. Get on board guys.

 

[Cebru]

Hmmm fuggit, I'll throw in $254.10 to buy a half-share with Owen ($500 between us), of the part ownership of the total. But I want no say in logistics..

Amount raised

anakinleo -$500
AyiosYiorgos - $500
ooneil - $245.90
Cebru - $254.10

Total $1500.00


C'mon everybody, we need your support !!!!!

Well I personally don't think this is such a bad idea. I mean we could definitely generate income from showing this collection off around the place, I know company's do with with paintings. Probably need to work out a few regulations and stuff to make this seem more legit but I'm happy to contribute up to $5000, possibly more, seeing this as an investment and provided we don't pay over the top for it.
