Comments: Finding a high-end
1990 Donruss Schilling has been a struggle. When I decided to go
with this issue for Schilling I picked out the best example from
my own stash of 1990s baseball cards collected during my teenage
years. I submitted it to PSA and it received a NM-MT grade. Graded
examples are just not offered since I started searching for one
in early 2011. I wanted to uprade the PSA 8 and purchased a full
wax box of 1990 Donruss via eBay in April, 2011 for $10 including
S&H. I opened pack after pack and would you believe, not a single
Schilling card - no kidding. After looking through the other cards
I learned a large percentage of them have rough edges or dinged
corners. Some collecting friends informed me picking up a factory
set would be my best bet. At the 2011 National Chicago I looked
for a set - not the hottest item mind you. And, on Sunday as I was
exiting the show I found one by absolute accident. At the hotel,
I opened the set and found the Schilling card in sequence. Unfortunately,
one of the corners is slightly white. It's not a good submission
candidate. On August 21, 2011 I found an eBay auction where the
seller advertised an example as MINT straight from a factory set.
I should receive it in a few days - we'll see if it's the upgrade
I've been looking for. |
