Don't laugh at me for this... but.

Ok, so I know a lot of people don't like 2008 Topps, but I do. I think 2008 Topps is going to be like my 1988 Score in another 20 years, it's what got me back into the hobby. So I'm going to like it because of that, but beyond that I kinda do like the design, especially the card backs.

So it seems that without intentionally trying, I'm very close to having a complete base set of 2008 Topps Opening Day. I'm lacking 30 cards and I don't care at all about the inserts or the super ultra rare bits of cloth or autographs or whatever's stuck to cards these days.

If anyone has some of the cards I need, I'm willing to send some '88 Score, '87 Topps or any other doubles I may have. If there's anything you're looking for between '88 and '94, and I've got extra, just ask. Hell, I'm even willing to send a few bucks for shipping if you've got the cards I need and I don't have anything you want.

Here's what I'm needing.

3 15 37 48
62 69 73 78 80 85 91
110 117 120 124 127 133 136
151 153 163 166 171 177 187 188 192 199
209 220

Like I said, I don't want inserts or anything special, just the base cards. If you can help out, shoot me an email or leave a comment.

Thanks.

Wow, that's a bold statement.

I wish I could help with Opening Day but I have none. Have you tried the Beckett board?

Nope. I never would have thought about it. I guess I'm still a bit stuck in 1994 Baseball Card World...

Are you still needing these cards? I have a whopping three of them.
