I'm a shy guy, so my gf asked the Collector's Connection guy if he had any Beach Boys cards and he said he could order a box and probably sell the packs at $4.50 a piece. He seemed impressed that you could actually open a pack and potentially get a piece of their shirts or an autograph. He said they may be in within a week if he decides to go through with it. He'll email us. Not too shabby  So I might have a card dealer here pretty soon lol. Thats around a 40% inflated price per pack. A retail pack goes for $2.99. Better to buy a hobby box of 24 packs online for around $80. Or you could make this seller an offer for their full, opened box: http://www.ebay.com/itm/261337285860 Or bid on this complete set( I bid $1.00 ) : http://www.ebay.com/itm/200992182144 or buy a new sealed box here for $75 injcluding the shipping( USA): http://www.ebay.com/itm/200991968064 |

Might be a dollar or two cheaper at their site, but they will add shipping. |

Well, Target for one...but not all of their stores. If you want a shot at the basic set (120 cards) and can stand the "bidding game" I would check ebay as dealers are stripping out the hits and then trying to sell the plain vanilla cards at much less than Hobby Box price. As for Retail Boxes, I do not think one box would have the basic set and you are bound to get many more dupes that route.  |

Are there any more scans available? I think I'm getting one of the complete sets for Christmas from Ebay, so I'll scan some that haven't been done before when I get those, since scanning is pretty easy for me to do.

There still have been no signs anywhere of the David Marks autographed cards. This seems kind of strange since there have been multiples of the other guys for sale on the secondary market.

What cities have retail cards been spotted in? I just spent a weekend looking all over the Nashville area to no avail.

I asked Carrie and she told me that David had signed at least 70 cards! ( So they must be out there) |

Just be patient - I think they are holding back some cards...there are some Etchings / Concert Gear fabric relic and others Ive yet to see and I have been monitoring the 2nd hand sales closely. And no sign of any Concert Gear "Buttons" yet at all |

It really seems funny that none of the David Marks signature cards have turned up. There have been no reported finds of any of these cards and there are no pictures to be found of them. It's been confirmed that David did sign at least 70 of the cards, but where are they? It is just chance that none have surfaced, or is Panini intentionaly withholding them?

I have all the Etchings now except one (Dennis, and I have seen it) so those have all been released.
Every hobby box will have a couple of Concert Gear cards, there are not any picks in them though. You have to go with retail packs to get those.
I still intend to post some more pics of the cards maybe I will find the time this weekend.
