My 04-05 Finest project

[twharry]

Hey folks...

Just thought I would share my current project with you. I wanted to try something different and given that I am on an extremely limited budget, this seemed to be both fun and affordable for me.

I am doing a set of both the Blue Refractors and XFractors, as well as three separate player sets. The way I am doing the Refractor and XFractor sets, I am simply collecting one of each serial number. 1/50, 2/50, 3/50 and so on. Player doesn't matter, I am simply going for the serial number. I am making progress, as you might be able to tell from the scan. I have been working on this for about two weeks now.

I am also doing the player sets for Jamal Crawford (GO BLUE!), Bernard Robinson (GO BLUE!) and Wally Szczsczsczsczsczsczsczcscersczbiak (fiance has a crush on him).

If anyone has anything that might fill some holes, let me know. Otherwise, enjoy! The image is also a link to a larger version of the collage, so you can actually kind of make the players out

​

Thanks!

Nice, but I really think it's impossible, because some of those cards are in player collection collectors, and they prolly might not get rid of them...

 

[westpointg]

No, there are 220 of each of them available.

I'm pretty strapped for cash right now. I was hoping to trade.

No Arenas yet.

what can ya offer me? if u can offer a decent-low end auto, i am sure we can work soemthing out

 

[Eric Draven]

but it looked like you were going in order, cause it said 1/50-50/50, or is that just the card in the set?

I have only really dabbled in basketball up to this point. I think I have two autos besides the RCs in this year's Finest (and I don't have any of the good ones).

I am trying to think of something I have that you might like, but all I can come up with are a Yao game jersey from last year's Finest and a Steve Francis BGS graded Hoops RC.

Yeah, I am going in order. My #1/50 is Kenny Thomas. There are 219 other 1/50s out there. My #17/50 and #18/50 are both Gordan Giricek. I have a #36/50, but I accidentally won two other #36/50's on eBay, so I will probably try to trade them for other cards I need for the set when I get them.

Ideally, as many of my refractors and xfractors as possible will be Bernard Robinson, Jamal Crawford or Pistons.

The point is that there are 220 different #1/50's. One for each card in the Finest set. There are 220 different #2/50's. 220 different #3/50's and so on.

I only have four redemptions. All of them are bad players. #26 and #27, both Refractors, #9 and #12 are both red refractors. As for autos, the only ones I have for trade are 04-05 Luxury Box Chris Duhon #ed/79 and Romain Sato #ed/135, along with a Qyntel Woods auto'ed Finest RC.
