Anyone Need Some Rings?

No, random generic Cubs fan who just clicked my link, not those kind of rings...

So I just remembered that I haven't checked my Diamond Giveaway page in awhile. I only have about 5 or 6 cards and rings but I managed to get a couple '70's cards so I figured I'd check it out just in case someone was offering a vintage Met I needed.

Nope.

Same stupid offers of a '90 Topps no-name for a '74 Topps no-name. Sigh.

Next I checked the rings just cause... well it was a button to click.

...

???

269 offers all for one ring. The fuck man? It's a Babe Ruth ring and I remember reading a post on Play at the Plates page about his Mantle ring being an SP so is this the same deal for the Ruth?

I haven't really been playing along at all so if it is, then you guys have dibs on trading me for it. I've also got a Braves, A's, Expos, Blue Jays, Jackie Robinson and an Ozzie Smith ring if any of you need one or all of those. Let me know and their all yours!

  1. From what I can gather, it's the Mantle that is limited to 60. However, based on the high volume of trade offers that Ruth draws, I think it must be a little harder to find than other rings. Realistically, it doesn't really matter if you have Ruth if you don't have Mantle because you only need 45 of the 60 rings to get the highest other prize available. That would be the 60th Anniversary set.

  2. I have 3 Mets (virtual)cards I will trade. Ihave a 79 Steve Henderson and a 84 Jesse Orosco 93 Howard johnson. I'll trade the 79 for another 70s card and the others for whatever.

  3. I have 38 different rings now but I do need the Braves and Ozzie Smith. I don't have any dupes right now to trade though ! I get about 100 requests a day, mostly for Babe Ruth and the Yankees ring.Got any Tribe cards ?
