Wow. First time I log into FCB in a while and I see this.
Especially sad news, as I had sent him Biggio stuff from time to time. I knew he had such passion for the cards & much less means for collecting as I did.
At least I know I brought some happiness into his life through his collection.
I have these two random ASTROS Bobbleheads available. Would love to sell them cheap to a collector who will enjoy them.
Magnetic Mini Bobs Set of 3 (Missing one) - Bagwell, Berkman, Kent
MLB All-Star Statue of Liberty - Houston Astros
Anyone interested?
Now that my Biggio Collection was sold off, I have the following available.
MJ ROOP Graded Card Archival Box
This can hold both PSA and BGS graded cards.
Anyone?
The time has come for the final 2 Biggio Crusades to leave the nest. I've raised them right, instilled values, showed them the ways of the world. Now, they need to find a new adventure and home with new friends.
<--- Check them out, because they'll be gone in T-Minus 10 hours!
...
Looking to sell the following ASAP.
Willie Mays Auto'd ONL MLB Baseball - $75 DLVD OBO
Signed on sweet spot, with clean signature & ball.
(Not sure why the photos attach to FCB sideways!)
I literally just did the same thing with my Biggio collection. Sitting on 2 more cards to sell, and then it will be officially all gone. While it was very bittersweet to see things go, I find myself missing none of them. The money currently sitting in my savings account also makes it feel like...
Thanks for the info!
I just sold my Executive set. The price was right for me to move them.
Do you have the dates of those CTA sales?
That red crusade sale you referenced was actually a damaged copy. I watched the auction and the description clearly stated a major flaw with the corner/edges.
I won't be gone entirely. I'm still on a mission to get every Biggio Bobble/SGA I can find. They're pretty cool to display in the apartment.
As far as card collecting... it's really lost it's appeal over the past few years. Not quite sure why, but it doesn't seem to be what it used to be...
