I've got the 1999 Collector's Edge Millennium Collection 'Blues'

**Davz13** · 08-19-2006, 08:15 PM

Why do I have the blues? because I need two of the Millennium Collection Blue cards (yeah, that was a terrible pun, but still...give some credit...haha), and so I was wondering:
How did CE distribute these?
Were they in certain boxes?
Retail only?
Hobby only?
Other?

For I will try to buy the product to attempt to pull the one card I need:
1999 Collector's Edge Millennium Collection First Place Blue 187 Amos Zereoue

I'm desperate. I've never seen these in 7 years, and it is starting to...make me mad.
It has been extrememly hard to find some of the other blue ones (just picked up the CE Odyssey 2nd Quarter version only a few months ago)...so are they just extremely short-printed, or just not well distributed?

Any help is deeply appreciated. Thanks!
David

I dug through all my old stuff and found this.Hopefully this helps explain it a little.I got this flyer when I got a bunch of other stuff from a "MEGA DEAL"courtesy of that idiot on Shop At Home.It was when I first started collecting,so don't rag on me too much.I'm going to be looking through all my stuff and try and find those 2 for you in the blue version.I'm not sure I have them though.

nice. thanks for the info! if you have them, ill buy or trade for them (trading will be limited times, since i'm at college)

wonder if they still have them available? that'd be sweet.

and boy, they sure as hell messed his name up 'Z.Zereove' should be 'A.Zereoue'

Since Collector's Edge has been gone for around 5 years,you can't buy them anymore.I think this flyer came from CE and was sent to hobby shops trying to encourage them to buy stuff.It might also be from Fair Field those people who re-purchase stuff and put them in variey packs.I'll post on this thread tomorrow if I find those 2.

Davz13 - you are one true player collector to be looking for a "worthless parallel"! =) On that note, commercecomet7 if you do find those sets, I need a "worthless parallel" myself!!!

commercecomet7 - But seriously, THANK YOU for the info...these are really tough to find especially the blues. You would think that with 1000 sets that more would hit ebay over the last 7 years, but no. I firmly believe the reason we don't see them is because Beckett list them as Reds .2x to .5x (of regular card) for stars and .12x to .3 for RCs! And the BLUES have a .4x to 1x of the REDs!

Davz13 - Remembering the trade between us, I put these aside a month ago from my old insert boxes...but unfortunately you have them already!
