Great accomplishment!!

Hard enough just to find all 6, let alone getting them all. Sometimes, one ends up in an unopened box for years and years!

Congrats!!! :beer:

Once I saw the last letter pop up on Ebay I knew it was only a matter of time until you got it. Congrats on completing the set, it's an amazing accomplishment!

Congratulations, looks awesome.

Just curious, how long have you been working on it? Since 07/08 SPGU came out?

Thanks for all the positive comments guys!! This is the first time one of my mail post has hit 3 pages hahaha

Some info that maybe people are interested to know...

- All cards were acquired on ebay
- I had 5 of the 6 letters within 6-8 months of SPGU going live
- Had a chance to buy the "S" a long time ago but the seller wanted $500 for it
- I think my avg cost per card was $235 give or take $20

 

[JohnnyDrama]

Quite an accomplishment. Great stuff!

Congrats on completing it! That is one hard thing to do. It looks Amazing! I had 4 of 6 Kariyas from 07/08. Another guy had the other 2 and wouldnt move them. So I sold them to him.

[Bbruins72!]

Thats an impressive accomplishment! WOW!

 

[xelloss1012]

Wow, that's pretty tough to complete. Congrats on finishing that.

Question about nameplate-making, does it seem that the first and/or last letter of the nameplate (given it is a unique letter) tends to be the hardest or most expensive to obtain? Need some input on that...

for me i really didn't notice that...i got the last letter pretty quickly but the first letter was the last one that i got....but i think that was more so due to coincidence than being hardest to obtain
