Huge Mailday For Me......

Had to give it its own thread, forgive me

Alright, a few 09 chromes, no biggie

A ten dollar Burgess chrome, big whoop.

Didn't need this level of protection, but can't complain about a seller protecting a card too much. But again, my third of these. Nothing special.

One more to go

Thanks Travis! Yeah, now's the time to buy Burgess if you think he can become anything. He's still only 20. You've been picking up some cheap Gordon's?

Gah! I still need a Justin Gold Refractor. Still have no Bowman Chrome.

Seriously? I thought you would've been picking them up in April at $65 a pop, they're still somewhat low ($85ish). You're more into the rare stuff right? I don't even bother going for low numbered autos/patches/buttons because I know you'll beat me.

Meh not really I am sorry to say.Everytime I think I will have some extra $ something else comes up.I am going to grab a chrome auto or two though before he comes back from the hip surgery.I have been buying up smaller cards such as inserts and parallels to help fill out the player collection.I may have to buy a few Burgess chromes though.At that price it pretty low risk high reward in my opinion.

Yeah, I've passed on Golds because I was waiting for a Red, but now I've given up on that. I almost bought a gold from Bigfan5, but then he told me it had a slightly dinged corner. Then another popped up a while back for a BIN/BO, but before I could put in an offer, he guy sold it, like the next day. Since I know I won't get the rainbow, I'm not interested in the Refractor, Xfractor, or Orange Refractor, maybe I'll just settle for a Blue for now. I still realllllllly want the Bowman Heritage Silver Ink 1/1 to pop up to go with my Red Ink. As for the buttons and such, I got beat on the first tag from Ballpark Collections that popped up, and ofcourse I got beat on that 1/1 button from Piece of History.

Nice gold. Here is an interesting comparison. Player Two sells for 2-3 times player one:

Player One (age 21)

G AB R H TB 2B 3B HR RBI BB IBB SO SB CS AVG OBP SLG OPS GO/AO
42 151 30 49 93 11 3 9 27 18 1 44 4 1 .325 .398 .616 1.014 0.81

Player Two (age 23)

G AB R H TB 2B 3B HR RBI BB IBB SO SB CS AVG OBP SLG OPS GO/AO
45 176 34 58 111 20 0 11 49 21 2 44 2 0 .330 .401 .631 1.032 1.18

Upton vs Longo. Having a bad start to the season/being on a crappy team has kept uptons price nice and lowish. I did a comparison earlier of miggy, braun, longo, pedroia, and upton on mlb.com, he is right up there in all categories.

I wish. This was through trade, Im trying to not spend hundreds of dollars on cards until I replenish my emergency fund.
