Last week I sold a box of 2004 Bowman Baseball Draft Picks & Prospects to a buyer. I packaged it up and sent it out quickly. I sent an email to the buyer as I always do letting them know it's been shipped out and when they can expect it. So just now I sent a follow-up email since I see the buyer has received it on Friday, again it's something I always do to make sure the buyer is happy with what they received and their overall satisfaction with the transaction.
SO, I go to contact the buyer and I see the name Phil Hughes, which I guess I hadn't noticed perhaps in my haste to get it packaged and dropped in the mail. I thought, ok, I know that name but then as this ole' noggin started working I thought "Wait a minute, the guy's name is Phil Hughes, He bought a box of 2004 Bowman Draft, and in this product there is a pitcher drafted by the Yankees who has his Autographed card in it by the name of Phillip Hughes." His eBay name is philspullz. So then I googled Phil Hughes and found he has a YouTube channel called Phil's Pulls. Maybe some of you already know this but I did not.
So I checked out the video and sure enough it is Phil Hughes, former MLB pitcher and Yankees Draft Pick. And for some older BMB members here you'll remember him being a member and posting many pics of cards that Topps and other Co's had sent him to sign. I know a lot of people then also sent him cards to get autographed which he gladly did for everyone.
So here's the video I watched that he just posted about 12 hours ago, and although I don't know if this was my box as he said he has a few other boxes of this, it's pretty cool to see him opening boxes in what he calls "Looking for my own card."
I thought it was pretty neat and I thought maybe you guys would enjoy it too!
