One in each factory binder. Premium binder sets had both binder cardsNotes: Originally scheduled for release on July 15th, 2000 Actual release was delayed by production problems. In April, 2000 Playboy removed the card marketing license from Paradigm Cards and transferred it to Stellar Collectibles. Case production was planned lower than Paradigm's, binder set production was about the same. 125 Premium binder sets were made, 1000 factory binder sets were made. Pricing on box cases increased by roughly 10% over Paradigms December release, factory sets also increased slightly. Promo posters were not released until the cases were shipped, 5 posters to a case. Card 73 is an error card, the same image appears front and back. The 127 Angela Little autograph card is a redemption card, offered as redemptions are red foil or jumbo cards from Centerfolds of the Century, the next planned release. (December 15th, 2000) Coallation on this edition averaged one set to a box, 15 sets to a case, some boxes did not make sets. Card numbers in the 90s are poorly coallated, particularly the 94, 95, 96, and 97 cards. Stellar has been good about filling requests for missing cards, if they are not excessive. The Kelly Monaco 129 auto is extrememly rare in foil boxes but was found in premium sets. Card stock went from 12 point in Sports Time and Paradigm releases to 16 point, cards to a box dropped from 360 to 240, coupled with the price increase on the case, per card price went up over 40% against the average from SuperModels Lingerie. [Most dealers felt the art direction and print quality improved.] Hits since February 26, 2001 |
