only high on your trade is the menzies, maybe hit for some more lower end inserts to sweeten it.

I would get on the side which has the knights double trouble as I am really after it!

 

[tak35bne]

mate, if u have the two DTs and are trading for the others then I would definitely do the deal........no probs at all.

I think the Menzies is numbered around 148/500

 

[1967Sharks]

Pfft i would trade 2 Double troubles for the Menzies alone, that side of the trade is getting a much better deal.

 

[parraeels]

Menzies side of the deal sounds to good to be true take it now

 

[Victor The Viking]

I'd take Menzies.

is this a trick question?

unless i am mistaken the menzies card is his only ever sig card and ltd as well, he is a former champion/legend of the game who played at all levels and has only ever had this 1 card.
(only draw back to his career is that he played to manly)

if you are offering the menzies, the dt and the gem then you can have my eels and manly dt's

 

[jpear30]

yeah the menzies part of the deal is definitely better. but id rather have the dts for my collection as im not a fan of menzies or the knights-

even rough values for this trade according to cardzone

the dt side-
Parramatta- est. 60.00
Storm- 65.00

The other side-
Knights dt- 50.00
Menzies- 120.00
Thurston gem- 25.00

so 195 dollars worth for the approx 125 dollars worth for the dts. if your after values definitely take the menzies part, but personally id rather the dts.

There's only one Menzies All Star Signature on ebay right now for $120 (#408/500), as mentioned before it's a pretty common sense deal for the Menzies alone, given it's scarcity and the calibre of the player.

There are 2 other Menzies sig cards that I know of - one being the 'In Their Element' acetate cards (numbered to 200 only) from Dynamic Marketing in 1996, and the other a National Heroes acetate card also in 1996 (numbered to 1000) - just for those interested!

 

[mattbowen]

Menzies side is the best.

And you also get a JT gem

 

[Diggaz TC]

Yep, thanks everyone for the feedback.

I was offered the Menzies side of the deal for my two DT's and i have accepted the trade.

 

[nickelarse]

Nice work mate, great deal.

 

[Brplat]

Well done mate you definately got the better end of the deal

[mischap123]

Mate, IMO Mezies/Knights DT worth the more of the 2 lots

 

[Diggaz TC]
