Well, I'm done with the hunt - too many other things taking my attention that aren't card-related.
I have 56 of the 58 in hand, and the 57th (Damon Sublett) was paid for to bmc398 back in August, and he hasn't quite gotten to the post office yet, I guess. Maybe you can get him to send it to...
Can't really bust the cases anymore, but a trip to Target got me a couple of the 3-pack blisters.

Basically, it seems that he got himself ejected on purpose so his bench coach, who is stepping down after being diagnosed with Parkinson's, will manage his last game with the Indians.
Awesome gesture.
Well, after ruining the nation's economy (I'm a teacher), I decided to ruin my own.
Actually, I paid off a credit card, and cleared out a bunch of cards and records, so I didn't feel guilty about turning some of my PayPal into a couple of PC items. I'd been out of actually buying cards for...
Figured I'd list mine so people know what's left in that case - whichever case I was in.

Nothing really worth scanning. Not the strongest pack in the case, but I'm glad I took a shot at it. Great service and packaging from Andrew as...
I know, more for the pile.

Liquidated 75-80% of my collection at a show this weekend, but couldn't pass up a couple of breaks. Mostly, because I'm a moron.

And few things about the Pats lately have made me happy....

These stories need more exposure. All these athletes that leave early and promise to go back and get their degree; the ones that actually do (and give up a payday to do it)...
So, I bought my first card of 2010 today.
It was too good to pass up, and it's a card that will stay in my 25-card PC - if it gets made.
It's a redemption card for a Griffey Jr./Bo Jackson dual auto /72.
My question is, if there ends up with some sort of injunction against Upper Deck, would...
The local store had a 50% off sale tonight (and tomorrow, at both Chris' locations in Salem NH and Seabrook NH)
I got 3 07 USA sets, a box of 99 Topps Tek, a box of 95 Select Certified, and 07 Elite FB (which is already opened, and sucked).
USA sets first.
I don't have a prize picked out yet, but I will. Since there's so much talk about Youk and Porcello, here we go.
The only rule? You can't actually reference the incident. I think the photo is hilarious, and shouldn't be a problem to come up with something. I'll let it run until tomorrow...
I was just loading some cards into Turbo Lister, when I came across this:
Numbered 176/175.
I know I've seen other people get something like this, but does it ever matter in a closing price?
I think the Red Sox would show interest only to drive up the price for other teams, and I don't think the Jays really want to deal within division if they can help it. But...
To start, Buchholz, Anderson, Bard, and one of the catchers?
Picked it up, ready to go.
Right now, I'm just ripping. Please hold any inquiries about availability until I'm done. Of course, I'd like to keep player collectors in mind for their stuff, but I don't want to deal with "what do you want for this one SP" quite yet.
Off we go.
I worked a table for a friend this morning at a local show, and ended up picking up a lot of some low numbered parallels. Some interesting cards in this lot, to be sure. Nothing available at the moment.

OK, here's the situation.
Sold a card to Canada. (I know, I know..)
It was Express, tracked, insured.
It got there (and quickly, too), but it was damaged.
The buyer is cool about it.
I call USPS to open a claim. File all information. We're good to this point.
I email buyer, tell him that he...
Guess I'll start it this morning.
How was the weekend? Can't argue with Boston going 3-for-3 last night. I'll even take the inconvenience of them all being at the exact same time if they'll all win.
