So everyone's expectations have been crushed by the lack of "value" in T1. I had a case on order that I was splitting with my group (Thanks Andrew!) and I busted my two boxes. I have to say...I think I killed it.
The sweet relic and the redemption were in separate boxes...
Hey guys,
So my LCS does a weekly drawing for gift certificates and I won $25 bucks! Like any sensible card collector, I gave the owner some additional money and he gave me another box of cards! I love America.
I'm not going to win any awards with this box, but I did okay...
Hey guys,
I'm looking for some eBay advice.
I've got a Jon Baldwin Inception Silver Auto /25 listed up on the bay right now, set to end tomorrow. Lots of watchers, but the bids are still well below what I'd like to see it go for.

I've always said that card design is what wins the day. Content, checklist, hits, value, these are all important, but if the design is exceptional, a product will sell. Take Inception as an example. I had ZERO desire to collect football cards until I saw Inception. Once I saw them in person...
So one of the benefits to having a baby is occasionally folks with throw a Target Gift Card your way. So I was down at Target picking up a few nick-nacks and saw the Topps Chrome blasters laying around. I'd seen some pretty good looking pulls here, so I thought I'd give a couple of blasters a...
So I got a sweet little bonus at the office today, and I thought I would convert it into some cardage. I thought CR was good looking stuff online, and I was right. I know it's Panini and Gellman says we're not supposed to buy it....but Gellman's not my wife. :)
It's a really fun break...
Hey all!
I just picked up a new scanner, and to celebrate, I've started uploading my trade stack.
I've got a number of base cards and the following hits:
Jon Baldwin Silver Auto /25
Jon Baldwin Jumbo Jersey
Taiwan Jones Patch Auto /25
Stevan Ridley Patch Auto /599
Jamie Harper Patch /25

Hey all,
I cracked my first serious box of Football ever today, and I have to say, these Inception cards are stunning. I've never been one just to oogle at cards, but man, these are awesome.
Everything I have is available for sale or trade, with trades being preferred. (I collect DFW-area...
Its a rare glimpse into the native habitat of the fabled wild packeus searchikus....sub phylum "doucheinus".
Look at him in all his majestic glory!

A completed rainbow. My first actually. Sexier pictures to come soon.
Updated: Nicer pictures for all of you to oogle at. Still got to get a better scanner though.....
I'm in the process of getting rid of some cards.....
First one to shoot me their address gets a no strings attached package. Nothing stunning is at stake here, just some cards cluttering up my boxes.
So after about a solid week's worth of daily checking at my local Target, I finally hit paydirt. I picked up six rack pack.
They didn't look too disturbed, but my expectations going in were low. I really like the design this year, and frankly wasn't really looking to make bank. I was just...
Hey FCBers,
I found myself at a different LCS yesterday, and I got to talking with the owner. He's got a great deal of old wax taking up space in his store that he's looking to get rid of at a competitive price. I've only rejoined the hobby in the last two years, and I love busting wax, so...
Hey all,
I've got sort of an on-again/off-again relationship with the hobby at large that mostly corresponds to how grouchy my wife is regarding how much space cards take up. My current "on-again" goal is to really focus my collection on the two aspects that I really love through the purchase...
