Anything you plan on changing in 2009 (regarding cards)

yanksfan4eva · Dec 25, 2008

With the new year right around the corner, is there anything you plan on doing different next year?

Example: Buying singles, no more wax, sticking to a brand, HOF, prospects???

Thanks for sharing

No more prospects.

Gonna try to stay focused on my O's Collections & Ripkens.
Try to get away from picking up non-PC "deals".

Try to go with more short term investments, I'm bad and I get bored of looking at the same cards.
And try to get one really nice piece I'm never going to want to get rid of, preferably a 1955 Clemente.

I am going to try to dramatically improve my Yankees PC. It needs help :?

I've already started a HOF/ Retired players game used collection. Got a Mel Ott card in the mail last week, as well as a Willie Mays and Duke Snider. Also got a John McGraw bat card inbound from Ebay. Hoping it gets here sometime early next week.

The prospects will slowly moving out, and I think im starting a small X-Alumni basketball collection

I plan on cutting back on the crap like blasters and stuff......I'm a sucker for impulse buys. I am also going to limit the amount of wax that I open and will probably start picking up singles more. I hope to add some nice pieces to my Ryan Zimmerman PC and I am going to focus on nailing down some autos for my PC card collection (Jeter, Arod, Pujols, Griffey, Ripken and a Jordan auto to name a few)

Save up some PayPal for bigger token PC purchases.

BUY AS MUCH FREAKIN WAX AS I CAN... :lol:

predatorkj · Dec 26, 2008

I will probably cut back.I will focus only on the few sets I want and my Bagwell collection.I think I will be slowing up a little more than planned on my Bagwell collection though.I will also still be trying to complete a few sets I have yet to complete.My wax busts this upcoming year will be minimal at best.

For 2009, I'm gonna buy one vintage box a month (1995- 2002)... I frankly don't know what to collect anymore after 30 years. I'll still be trying to get more Topps Fan Favorites auto, but the players I'm missing don't seem to be appearing or the guys selling them have overpriced them. After getting to 148 different players' certified autos, I've hit another wall.

I'm sure I'll figure something interesting baseball-wise.

xcantgobackx · Dec 26, 2008

Work on auto's of players I collect and my 98 Yankees collection. I'll never stop busting wax, but I will weed out the stuff I don't necessarily need.

i43770 · Dec 26, 2008

Try to get to 100% of my player in my PC. And if everything goes well, try to pick up my first case or two of something.

Probably will stop breaking Bowman products.

Nah I think I'm done. 08 BC was a drag and BDP wasn't much more fun. The opening of packs got boring for me at least for that product. If anything I will open more 1 AU/pack products and cancel the Bowman.

More Vintage...

Guest · Dec 26, 2008

I'm going to move a lot of stuff in 2009, either buy selling, trading or giving it away.
I have over 30,000 cards and I have way to much stuff I don't even collect per say.
