Haven't been buying much at all but here is what I've purchased since March:
For your viewing pleasure:
My contenders pickups:
I believe for the moment, I am caught up again on this project. Of course, Pete Carroll could fuck that up at any moment lol.
Then these other 4...first one was an impuse buy
2011 Topps Seattle Seahawks team card plate yellow 1/1
Next was a story about tracking. Saw this on another forum, guy wanted $30, I laughed. He put it in a lot with a ton of other cards with a $300 BIN, I laughed harder. Finally he sold the lot for $150 which I couldn't believe (it looked like a bunch of shit...seriously) and almost immediately, it came up at auction, but mistitled. Put a bid on it and the auction was cancelled. It was put back up for auction titled correctly and did not bid right away. Next day it was a BIN for $8 and free shipping. Works for me!
2011 Bowman Sterling James Carpenter Black plate RC 1/1
Next card was an 'I give up story.' This has been put up opver the last 3 years for a stupidly high price of $60. I tried telling the seller they were overpricing it to no avail. Finally they put it up with a starting price of $35. I had eBay bucks incoming so after using them, it ran me $17 which was $8 less than I offered them for it years ago. Also, this puts me at 15 of his 29 1/1's:
2006 Gridiron Gear Darryl Tapp Black plate RC 1/1
After all the thining of my collection, I took a minute to figure out what loose ends I still had. I always try to get an auto of every Seahawks player or at least one of the better cards I can get. One player was out of my reach. I know this is not a pack-pulled auto, but it is certified and to be honest, the price seemed really good.
2012 Leaf National Convention Jerry Rice auto #d 2/5
Thank you for looking!
