First some recent Gio pickups. I have others but they werent worth scanning or are redemptions. I guess I forgot to scan my Heritage red auto /60 though. Sorry for the poor scans. Im still trying to figure out this new scanner. The one chrome is an xfractor and the Topps is a Wal-Mart exclusive black-border.

And now some pickups from todays show. I also picked up a couple refractors that i didnt bother scanning as well as busted a box of LOST trading cards. It was cheap so I figured Id give it a try. It was fun for the price I paid.

First, a Jonny Flynn patch for my Cuse collection. Its /25. Paid $10.

Then this Carl Crawford RC. Already have one, but have been looking to pick up more. Very underrated card. Paid $25 if I remember correctly.

And finally, this Aaron Boone auto. If you are not familiar with this card, it is Boone's only auto in a Yankee jersey, and it was (hopefully still is) a decently sought after card. I have always looked for these cards at shows and was lucky enough to find one at a show a few years back cheap and flip it for a decent amount. Today I came across my second. Paid $15. Very much worth the risk in my book.

Yes sir that was me. He was pretty darn steep on that and I think you paid 7 for the blue right? I can't believe people still look in the beckett for prices lol.

Yeah, it was surprising to see how little he knew about prospects and pricing considering how many he made. I probably overpaid a bit on the Dixon, but I was chatting him and the older guy up for a while, and they were nice, so I bought it anyway.

Yeah very true. I pulled a Trout chrome auto at the show and it was badly OC. I sold it to him for 16, which wasn't that bad.

Nice Boone pickup, i have been looking for one for awhile, but gave up when the last couple i saw went for around 50 on EBAY. It is such a great looking card!

You collect Gio?

my chrome boxes have been spitting out refractors like crazy (blue and gold? maybe orange) along with stupid wbc cards. Two boxes, still only 2 base chrome prospects :/

Either way, shoot me a pm with your addy.
