    2009 FCB promo cards

    So TCDB has a new thread about a 2009 FCB National Convention promo set. That's before my time as a member here, so wondering if any "old timers" can share the story? https://www.tcdb.com/Forum.cfm/Page/M/ID/0/?MODE=VIEW&ThreadID=44102&C=0

    Oddball Issue - 2002 Upper Deck Collectibles Play Makers

    I am snowed in this morning. I haven't found the motivation to shovel the walk yet, so I'm just sitting here drinking coffee and trawling the web for cards. Surprisingly, I just found an Alomar card for my PC that I'd never heard of before - the 2002 Upper Deck Collectibles Play Makers issue...

    need a favor

    Hi everyone, I wanted to buy this card, but ebay keeps telling me the seller will not ship to Colorado. But the seller says he definitely will, and I know that's true because I've bought from him before. https://www.ebay.com/itm/234508015057?hash=item3699c455d1:g:q8QAAOSwYy1iV0CR So would any...

    Online sources for cards - ranked. Opinions welcome.

    So I was thinking, what are your top 5 online sites for buying/selling baseball cards, in order? Here are mine: 1) Ebay - far and away #1. I wish it wasn't so, but this is the big kid on the block. I troll every site I know of on a regular basis, but ultimately a large majority of my purchases...

    2001 Stadium Club Super Team 11x14 Autographs?

    Does anyone out there have an example of these? Has anyone even seen one? Apparently if you pulled a "Super Team" card of the team that won the championship series or world series (Yankees, Diamondbacks), you could exchange it for a set of Super Team cards, plus one randomly selected 11x14...

    Error and Variations Guide Book

    2021 Collecting Goals

    A new year is just around the corner, hopefully bringing better days with it. So, optimistically speaking, what are you hoping to accomplish over the next year in your collections? Here's my list. For my Alomar PC: 1) Reduce new card purchases even further. At current count there are 537...

    2019 Tek Thread

    Finally the thread that nobody's been clamoring for - 2019 Topps High Tek! This cheap perfunctory set deserves its own cheap perfunctory thread. I realize nobody's talking about this crap set, but to heck with "them". When "they" zig, I zag baby. First, what's the point of even doing Tek...

    Hereyago boys. April NC thread. Let me start it off with one of my all time favorite cards: Keith Comstock. 10-7 career record in 6 seasons. 1.1 career WAR. Most importantly, a HOF sense of humor - an important personality trait for anyone posting on this thread...

    Question on 1993 Finest Promo Refractors

    Hi all - Looking for info from anyone who owns one of the three 1993 Finest Promo Refractors (Mattingly, Ryan, or Alomar). I have the Alomar in my collection, at least I think I do. What I mean is, there seem to be two different "refractor" versions floating around, with the difference being...

    1997 Topps Stars All-Stars: WTF?

    The 1997 Topps Stars set doesn't seem to be particularly memorable. I was out of the hobby the year before, so I don't have any memory of it. But even today, nobody talks about it. There's no buzz or nostalgia, nothing. But this set keeps coming up in my consciousness because it has one of the...

    Yet another ebay d-bag seller to avoid

    Nothing major, just need to point out another idiot that the fine members of FCB should avoid. Seller is named "roomuser" but I would argue "shroomuser" is a better description of this fuzz-nutted imbecile. So this seller lists a fun little item - a 1990 fleer rack pack with Alomar on top. I...

    TV Sports Mailbag Sets

    A while ago I stumbled on an issue from 1990 that I never knew about - the TV Sports Mailbag jumbo 8x10 card. Beckett lists the 1989 and 1992 sets but nothing about 1990 and 1991. From what I can tell TV Sports Mailbag put out jumbo sets in 4 years: 1989 = active players, 140 cards 1990 =...
