Yesterday I did say I will need whole year to search and complete missing numbers for 2 Russian turbo gum series. As for today, it appears that it might not take so long. One guy contacted me and offered to get from him 3 of my missing items. We have ongoing deal right now, and I expect to get letter with new turbo gum papers from him in about 2 weeks, at the beginning of February. So, taking this into count, it will take me just one month to get 10 out of 14 my missing turbo Rus collection items. I might very like this. But don’t think it is so simple. You have to watch and literally hunt them, because this series is quite rare. Every missing number for serious collectors is something that is just wrong to miss. And here I stand. 4 left to go for me.
Here I will post what items I still need to search and bring to my album with turbo 2003 collections. If you accidentally happen to have any of them, feel free to contact. I prefer in good condition, but anything in fair condition is good. Thanks.
UPDATE @ 2009-01-18! Turbo Sport #11 found! And yes, Russian Turbo Sport 2003 is almost collected, I just need to wait for the letters coming to me. Yay!
Turbo Sport 2003 RUS #11
Turbo Super 2003 RUS #27
Turbo Super 2003 RUS #32
Turbo Super 2003 RUS #37
And some interesting historic details: at 2009-09-29 19:45:45 I was still missing 34 of them: Turbo Sport 2003: #3, 7, 8, 11, 13, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 31, 33, 47, 51, 57, 58, 60, 61, 64, 67, 71, 73; Turbo Super 2003: #27, 32, 37, 50, 56, 78, 79, 83, 85, 86, 88, 89.
Today I have received some letter with some missing turbo. 5 new turbo sport 2003 rus items came to my collection. And now it’s just 2 to finish this sport series. Really good finding.
At the time blogging this, I’m missing #11, 13 for turbo sport 2003 rus collection, and #27, 32, 37, 78, 79 missing for turbo super 2003 rus. #83, 85 from super series have deal finished, just my partner should send me the letter in days.
So, collecting the few of the hardest turbo series is going to the end. I’m planning to finish those last 7 missing this year. Whole year may seam to be long term, but it might not be enough. We’ll see. 7 of last 14 found and/or received in one month. So far so good. If you actually have some of those numbers to offer me, and need some other turbo rus for your collection, we might have a good deal. Please contact.
