Just some info on a sports card release this month, I think it could be very interesting, a company called netpro put out a tennis card set in 03-04 with auto's and match worn memoribilia and it was pretty cool.  I will post some scans as I opened a few boxes of it (if anyone is interested in seeing them)

Anyway back to the new release from Ace this month here are the details does it interest anyone?

2005 ACE SIGNATURE SERIES TENNIS 10 bx Case for $ 825 (Live  Mid July)

30 Packs per Box...5 Cards per Pack...3 AUTOGRAPH CARDS PER BOX....3 TOURNAMENT WORN CLOTHING CARDS PER BOX
2 SERIAL NUMBERED PARALLEL CARDS PER BOX...FIRST AUTOGRAPH & TOURNAMENT WORN CLOTHING CARDS OF MARIA SHARAPOVA

3 autos and 3 clothing cards per box Shocked  Not bad for $82 and look at the players that will be included Federer and Sharapova Kiss etc,

No prob, I thought maybe Tennis cards might have more of a Worldwide interest vs US sports leagues.
I actually emailed the company (Ace) just now to see if I could get some sort of checklist of cards. Praying

Trey I think those prices are on the high side, let me know if you want to preorder some, I have some pretty good sources when it comes to sports cards and am pretty sure I can find some better prices on a box.

I got an email from the manufacturer saying beggining of august, most dealer info says middle to end of july, but I would go with the beg of aug.

I have a really nice sales sheet with nice pics of the cards, it is in the progress of being posted, hopefully soon.

Cool cant wait to see it!!

Well you have got me into the tennis sets, I looked up the netpro set that you talked about on ebay and look at what I brought:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5179707712

I dont know if it was an expensive price or not but Lleyton is a great aussie tennis player and I couldnt really go past his auto for AU$40  Cheesy

That seems like a good deal to me, there isn't much of a track record for those cards to determine a normal price.  Being as a box of the netpro int tennis ran about $50-$70 when it came out and you got two memorabilia cards it seems like a good buy.

Also if anyone goes back and buys any boxes of Netpro be aware the cheap box doesn't contain any auto's or match worn cards, you are much better off to get a box of the international series.  Those contain on avg 2 memorabilia.  Probably better off to wait til the Ace comes out 2 memorabilia and 3 auto's per box is pretty darn good.

Also there are going to be 1/1 logo cards.  So the Nike, Reebok, etc cards right off of the outfits will be 1/1 cards.  Those will be super nice and valuable.

Trey - that really can't be a bad deal at all. I saw Heritt play on centre court at Wimbledon - it was too awesome for words Smiley

I bought two boxes of Ace Signature on Friday they won't get to me til this Friday the 21st, but I am pretty anxious.  Some of the cards have been going for some pretty high $'s is my understanding.  Also they have become a little harder to find boxes or the box price has gone up a little, I know the case price from my inside guy has gone up about $75.  We will see hopefully I will have some good luck.  I will post scans when I get them.
