Ok the "lot"
THere are roughly 1200 cards

I set them into catagories

Gibberish · 10-01-2011, 09:24 PM

John is an easy going customer and really makes this a hobby and not a swap meet

crow085723 · 10-02-2011, 01:32 PM

Thanks again for the that beautiful Allen & Ginter Italy Flag. I'm really loving these tobacco cards!!

Gibberish · 10-03-2011, 07:28 PM

Glad you like it !

The artwork is twice the pleasure as it is old masters style from 130+ years ago, real artwork

halldogg · 10-04-2011, 03:48 PM

Do you have any A&G Italy Flags left? If so, please PM me a price and paypal info.

Thanks!

Gibberish · 10-04-2011, 04:17 PM

No I do no,but I will see if I can pick one up. I can rarely buy 1 for a good price,so I will see if any of the people I deal with have a price on a larger lot. If so I will save you Italy
If you get bored on weekend, drive up near Dalton and take a look at my cards :P

LOL! Just googled your city. Looks to be a long ways from here. I am getting interested in alot of the older vintage cards. Just need the $$FUNDAGE$$ Going through a divorce so as soon as that is overwith, I should be good to go.

Gibberish · 10-04-2011, 06:46 PM

Well
I am pricing my to sell,not to stare at,so it wont be a problem

Most cards are 10.00 dlvd
There are exceptions but I list very few of those
Check my other threads and you will see

G'luck with the divorce. I know how hard it is no matter how outward appearances are

Gibberish · 10-05-2011, 12:39 AM

Here is a bit of info. I posted this on another forum in response to my statements about the tobacco cards from A&G selling for more in set form than it costs to actually buying them 1 at a time

Here is an example of when you take the time to find all of the cards for a set
The average card sells for 16-20, Sitting bull sells for 60-100 as does geronimo
1888 Allen & Ginter N2 American Indian Complete Set 50 | eBay

The sum total of the parts $908-$1160

As I said,as a complete set these series sell for considerably more than the single cards, purchased 1-2 at a time
So much more stable and worthwhile than ANY other card sets to collect

The seller had the lot listed for 3200 and was offered 2500.00

These are well beyond simply being "worth collecting"
People pay premiums for not having to do the leg work and it happens often. I saw 9,000.00 in sets sold the other day, 2 sets, 25 card set and a 50 card set.
Average cards price, buying as a single, 50-110

Just trying to convince collectors,not only are these beautiful , but so much more lucrative in selling down the road or seeing your actual investment grow as you buy it, beyond what you paid.

Everyone have a good week !

Gibberish · 10-07-2011, 08:15 AM

Lot price on the 100 ct lots is 35.00 dlvd in the US
I have 6 lots left out of the 1200 cards.
Easy flip money at shows and in trades. Also a cheap way to get into Tobacco and a hell of a lot of fun to go through

crow085723 · 10-07-2011, 07:38 PM

I just received that Allen & Ginter Italy flag and it is so awesome to look at in person. I have 63,000+ basball cards, 1,100+ wrestling cards but that tobacco card is easily my most favorite card in my collection!

Thanks again and I can't wait to check out more cards you have for sale!!

I know,right ?
WIthout a doubt, handling these cards is almost...reverence. I do not know how else to explain it. The origins of card collecting,from the beginning...it is over powering ;0
Glad you liked it as much as I !

keggobelly · 10-07-2011, 08:57 PM

I was born and raised in Rome, next time I head home to visit I will try to head up to Dalton. These cards are amazing!

Hey,Enjoy them

7 lots sold, 5 left

Get them while i have them. I am focusing my collecting and unloading most of my European cards

Gibberish · 10-11-2011, 07:33 AM

I believe all of the FLags of Nations cards are gone. I have 8 dupes left that I have not cross-checked.

Still have 4 lots of 100 left. All lots come shipped in a flat rate box,all cards are in Rigid card savers.

I ship safe and secure !

Check my other threads
Will be listing more stuff here later this week

bettydaw1970 · 10-17-2011, 08:25 PM

Hey

THose are prepacked already in 100 ct lots.
There are 3 lots left
I could not tell you which box it is in without busting them and it would not be cost effective for a 1.00 card

It is a 1926 Players or a 1928 Wills
One of the boxes contains around 40 of the cards from that series,near full set

halldogg · 10-21-2011, 03:46 PM

What exactly is in the 100ct Lots?? What types of cards are there? I may be intrigued to buy one or two.

Gibberish · 10-21-2011, 04:50 PM

I have 2 left
They are all 1909-1936 European Cigarette cards.
It is the same stuff I sell in my Dollar page for Tobacco. I just ran into a person hurting for cash and instead of paying .25-.50ea and slow selling at 1.00ea 20 for 15.00, I got the lot at around .14ea. I add rigid sleeves to every card, Card Savers and I cover flat rate shipping and I make 9.00 for my time per lot.
People get a steal, I turn over cash and I introduce more and more people to the hobby.
I thought I was done once I sold these last 2 lots, but I have so much interest I may try to find more. Not sure if I will but I may try

IndySportsCards · 10-21-2011, 04:55 PM

I'll take a lot of 100 - Is it just a random lot? PM me more info, but I'd really like to get one.

Gibberish · 10-21-2011, 07:11 PM

I will rephrase
All Card holders are gone

These come from California and I have ordered more.
I can sell up to 200 more cards at 30/per 100 dlvd
I am going to move my show European cards as I am mainstreaming into American Tobacco
So
I have 200+, will sell at 35/dlvd per 100+(Adding extras )
I have 100 with no holders, I am out of holders, for 30/dlvd

Any interest let me know

Only 100 with no holders left, just sold 100

Also
Ask the other buyers, when I say 100, it's usually around 120

I count out 50,then match a stack side by to get the same height,then I toss another 20 on to be sure :P
