Okay, I'll be honest, I've pulled a few "buybacks" in various Upper Deck products over the years and was also happy to pull them, but never received much on the quality side from the condition.
Well, some of you know that I collect Dick Porter (and old friend of my dad's and grandfather) so when 2009 Goudey was going to be inserting original 1934 Goudeys, I was pretty excited to hopefully get a chance to pick up a Dick Porter for fun.
Finally one was hit (perhaps the only one inserted), landed on eBay and looked to be in decent condition. Of course, regardless of condition, I was going to win it and was willing to overbid just for the knowledge that it was a buyback. The auction ended at under $15 with shipping and received it today.
Suffice to say, for 1934 Goudeys (an issue that most people assume had rounded corners due to common corner rounding) this card is amazing. Now granted, I have roughly 60 of these cards, but few nicer than this one...and it was one of the most inexpensive.
