I loved that card for the little time I had it. I just came across someone else who's building the set and he looks to have the sean casey. Pm me for details if you're interested. Btw, doug mientkiewicz is #186.

Thanks man. I believe there are 4 sets in the works right now, but I think I am the closest. PM sent.

Congrats! It's a double-edged sword that the last ones you need are pretty much commons (besides Alomar and maybe Sean Casey). Good news: They should come cheap. Bad news: Someone probably has them stuck back in a common insert/parallel box and it might be a while before they surface.

I can't wait to see the finished product!!!!!

Not necessarily. The last Millwood sold for $25.

OUCH! The two highest bidders were Millwood's mom and wife!

Seriously, though.....a buddy of mine had a late '90's #'d insert of Matt Stairs and put it on eBay. He was hoping to get the opening bid of .99. It ended at over $20! I guess you never know.........

Congrats, Brandon. As one trying to put this set together as well (need 26 more), I can appreciate the persistence and patience necessary to put together this 10 year old set. The older this set gets, the rarer it is to see the cards posted for trade/sale anywhere. Best - KP
