Troy's Mail Days

[Mike]

Nice adds Troy. The only one I've heard of from those baseball adds is Joe Morgan. What the heck, though! You got 20 of the same hit in a single case break? If so, hat's just...odd! I hope I just read that wrong.

You heard right, I just wrote wrong. That would be 2 in the same break. 20 would be nice but that would make Topps worse at inserts than they actually are.

And thanks.

Very nice 2 card mail day.

First a nice add for my Kentucky PC, even though he never actually played for UK due to NCAA violations:

He is really starting to come into his own as he went for 23 points and 22 boards a couple nights ago.

And a really nice pull from a break I was in

Considering Tris Speaker retired in 1928 this relic is realllllllllllllllllly old, and it is numbered to 99!

FYI:
Career Stats:
Batting Average: .345
Career Hits: 3514
Career RBIs: 1529

Nice additions Troy, especially on that Speaker. Any vintage relic cards, in my opinion, are awesome pick ups.

Thanks, Mike. It is probably the best relic that I have picked up.

Real nice stuff. Supreme looks so good, but its a tad expensive considering what you get per box.

I agree Supreme is way too expensive, but I lost my mind one night and got into a break. Probably did not get my money's worth but the Graham was pretty sweet.

Here is a catch up of some recent mail days.

I will start with a nice piece for my Kentucky Wildcats PC

Darius may not be the best player UK had but he will always be a legend in the state, he won a High School State championship, the Mr Kentucky award and the NCAA title just capped it all off.

Another nice Joe Morgan numbered to 18, even if he is in the wrong uniform :whistle:

A nice old school auto numbered to 130, but I don't understand the cut signature look with a sticker auto in the middle :wtf:

This is my favorite new pick up, Eddie George numbered to 87 patch with part of his number (3 color)

 

[Mike]

Very cool George patch. I also agree with you on that "cut sticker". That's just lame!

Nice looking cards for those boys in blue.

Ah Listia. I've only gotten two cards from there. I keep forgetting to check back on items I'm watching until AFTER they have ended. Their watching list is not as convenient or as easy to check as Ebay's. Also I haven't built up too many credits there so most of the time the credit cost is way over what I have anyway.

Listia is pretty cool, I usually list some mid level cards to build credits and then wait til there is something pretty nice to gp after. I have been on there a while but you have to be careful, I have recieve some cards that are just sent in a PWE with no protection. This is, by far, the best auction that I have won on there.

Sweet Flozell Adams, dont see him much. And awesome Eddie George!! And, seriously, Tristar.. seriously?? I remember seeing those cards come out of boxes on youtube.. I still cant believe they released those looking like that.

Thanks, yea Tristar is just proving why they will always be an afterthought in the collecting world.

Kinda agree, but not 100% because I like their TNA Wrestling cards
