I don't think I ever showed off the 2014 Strata. Got the 2015 in today.

In the parlance of our times, sick. Do you go for quality over quantity? I mean, do you have all the base cards and inserts and whatnot? Or do you just focus on the real hardware?

I go after whatever appeals to me. It makes no difference if it costs $1 or $1000. Hell, my favorite card is the 2013 Opening Day 3-D Stars, because lenticular rules.

I try to pick up as many base and cheap inserts as I can, but they aren't a priority. I try to wait until Burbank or other large volume sellers stock up, then buy as many as I can. Shipping charges make buying cheap cards individually cost prohibitive.

I'll usually save up funds before certain products are released. I've been extremely lucky that several of the specific cards I want have been pulled - the Five Star logos, the Museum laundry tag, etc. I'm done buying logos - I'm not really sure what else there is that I don't have. One huge one is the 2013 WBC USA flag that's on eBay. The seller wants way too much.

I had a deal in place to buy the 2010 Topps Chrome Super auto. Told the guy it'd take me a week or two to get the funds, but my offer was $200 more than what he was asking. He ended up selling it as I finished getting the funds together for $500 less than what I was gonna pay. To make matters worse, I sold my SGC 92 Gretzky RC to afford it. It was nicer than the two PSA 9's I've owned. If I had the time, I would have crossed it to PSA. Definite 8.5, and probably a 9 if I cracked it.
FYI, PSA 8.5's sell for $5k+ and the last 9 sold for $30,000. Ugh.

After looking again, I realized it's been awhile since I've posted anything other than the Strata
