What would you do if you had all all the SN numbers of a particular card?

In my case, it was for my wife's collection! She was the one who said "go for it" when the other 2 showed up on ebay. (Probably why we've been married for 28+ years - we support each other - and keep each other in check as well.)

That is certainly impressive IMO. I really never thought of a single owner to an entire S/N of a card. In some cases, I would like to believe that obtaining all of /2 or /5, even /10 would maybe be harder to do than attempting to get all of /75...? Any way you slice it though, congratulations on owning an entire market of card all of you that shown them, I can't honestly fathom what it could take to research and wait, for that last one to finally appear on eBay and you are going nuts cause you just spent $1k on cards and your wife is telling you "NO MORE" lmfao!!!!!

Impressive....

A LCS here managed to track down all 4 copies of some Carey Price patch card, where Upper Deck cut the '31' from the sleeve of a jersey into four quadrants and put one in each card. It looked pretty cool to see them re-assembled like that.

I have just over 2% of all copies of this card:

I have one incoming now, which is pretty exciting, since it is only the second one I have found this year.

Will trade for women's basketball, vintage Pittsburgh Pirates, Pirates certified and TTM/IP autos, WNBA autos, '70s food issues and oddballs, 1979-80 Topps and OPC hockey, vintage basketball and soccer.

That is impressive getting that many. It hope you are able to finish the whole set of 1960 one day.

I wonder if DyeHardFan will chime in.

From what I’ve seen on The Card Life, he seems to have quite the Alex Gordon collection…

My eBay store.- Be sure to check it out!

FOR SALE/TRADE: View my profile for details! If there's a certain player you want, ask me about them, I'll probably have a card of their's that I'm willing to trade but haven't marked on my FS/T list. For more specific info, visit profile or message me.

I tried doing that with a number of the Topps minis released in 2015 & 2016 but never got all 5 of any of them. Have 3 or 4 of the /5 cards for a number of players. i was able to get 7 or 8 of the metal framed Topps base card of Matt Holliday from 2015. Bidding on a few of the others was too hot, don’t think all 20 made it online. Was fun to try!
