Info on these cards wanted.

[Nzraider]

Hi,I am after some info on these cards,I had some on another unrelated thread,but was after a bit more.
What I know is that the Ridge card is from the 1995 card crazy release and is numbered 0002 on back and has ultra gold in foil on front card.I have no COA with it.Is it the Ridge ultra gold card from this set and being numbered 0002 how much more collectable?
The other two Hoppe cards are from the 1996 card crazy set,one is embossed and stamped ultra gold and the other is plain,neither is numbered.I know the Hoppe ultra gold card from this set was signed and came with COA,but what about these cards?
Anymore info and idea on value,will be much help.
thanks Brett

Hi Dave,Did it have a COA set? As it is not signed,why would it need it,I have look everywhere to try and find another picture of the set but can't seem to find one,have you seen a full set of 3 cards?Also do you think the two Hoppe cards are promo cards or part of set?Any info would really be helpful as I said I don't know much about them,thanks Brett

Hi Brett

I can confirm it is a 3 card set. Mine are pictured below. I wouldn't expect to get $500 for it. However, if some only have the one card, I wonder how many of the 50 are in complete 3 card sets?

 

[Nzraider]

Thanks Dan can you scan the other sides so I can see them.Never seen the 3 card set,did you pull from packets or buy?
judgeing by some of the PM's I am getting you would get $500,maybe more.Do you know anything about the two hoppe's.thanks mate

Brett, yes there were 3 cards to the set, I have the 3 card set. If you have a look on ebay there should be a set, I think the seller is alanav i think, just type in sean hoppe.
As for the other cards they are part of a set, the one with no writing on the front is an error card.

I don't know too much about the Hoppe. It seemed to be the more frequent one on sale in the early days. Numbered to 50 and signed. I missed out on the number 1 a few years back, emptied my (student) life savings out for it, but got outbid on Trademe by an Aussie retailer. Curiously my Ridge Redemption card is not marked as it says it should be? I can't imagine too many were redeemed, the expiry was less than a year and Card Crazy went bankrupt after the next release. There is still quite a bit of unopened stock dotted around too. I'd say the Hoppe cards you have were part of the factory stock in a liquidation sale?? Just a guess. Having one unembossed and one unsigned would make them quite scarce I would think. Can't help more than that though.

Oh, and I bought this with the set and album and inserts for a steal back in the days when I seemed to have a monopoly on all RL cards on Trademe...those were the days

So are those the two redemptions for that set - a signed Hoppe and an unsigned Ridge?

Unsigned Ridge = 1995
Signed Hoppe = 1996
