Joe Sakic card #294 1998-99 UD Choice Starquest Red #SQ11

  • Was kind of surprised for how old this card was and how many of them are out there that this wasn't added to the TCDB.   That has been handled...
  • Supposedly there are 100 copies of a Gold Starquest card out there of Joe Sakic.  In all these years I have never seen one.  Found a Chipper Jones '99 SQ gold out of 100 ebay auction, $125.  Yikes.
  • Three copies of this are currently on COMC.  Cheapest is $1.99, most expensive is $3.70.  Not bad.

Joe Sakic card #293 1998-99 UD Choice Starquest Green #SQ11

  • This is the middle tier of the Starquest inserts.  I love the look of this card better than the other two versions because of the green.  
  • Still cheap:  COMC has a copy of this card for just 89 cents, which is still reasonable for any Sakic insert.  
  • I've been trying to find the odds of pulling the green and red versions, but have had no luck.  If anyone sees them anywhere online, please point them out to me.

Joe Sakic card #292 1998-99 UD Choice Starquest Blue #SQ11

  • I don't have a whole lot of inserts that I liked over the years, but Starquest cards are one of the few that I enjoyed.  Don't know why, I just do.
  • The blue version is the most common, which in turn means that they are the most inexpensive.   The cheapest version of this card right now on COMC is just 38 cents, which is a steal for any Sakic card.
  • Bio on the back:  "...Joe Sakic has earned eight selections to the NHL All-Star Game..."  Finally a card that doesn't mention his shorthanded skills!
