Finally picked up the number 1 card on my want list. I will never have the Red or Super, so I considered this my top attainable card. Sold off a bunch of smaller stuff over the last couple months to get it. Most I have ever spent on one card/box/anything hobby related.

Thanx for looking.

Awesome.
I'm also selling off some smaller things to make a big purchase and I know how difficult it is when you just want to spend the money right away. I'm sure you used a great deal of patience and boy has it paid off. That card is gorgeous.

Thanx everyone.

I never thought I'd have the patience to pick it up. I'm too jumpy when it comes to cards. I've tried saving before, but after a while, something will show up and I'll spend what I have saved. Then I end up with a bunch of base autos, or lower end stuff. Finally decided to get rid of as much as I could to go after it.

I was actually amazed that I could hit a BIN for something that high (for me, anyway).

Maybe when you can recoup some funds, you can buy this for me so I can buy myself a new Lincecum Bowman Chrome Auto :)

Very Nice!

Too high though, I'd need a 9, lol. My OCD would never accept that into the collection of 9's. :lol:

Thanx a lot for all the kind words everyone.

I still don't believe I actually have it. Had a scary couple of days waiting for it though. It was sitting in the PO center in Warrendale since Friday. It didn't update again until it was delivered yesterday afternoon, even though it was sent Priority/Sig Confirm.

I was expecting to have one of those "PO stole/lost my high-dollar card" moments.

One member here has a 9.5 for sale, but he has about $400-$500 more on his asking price. I'm happy with the 9, plus it matches my Blue! :cool:

Probably gonna finish off the BGS 9 rainbow now.

Here is the aforementioned...

Well, now I know where to come for the X! Once I sell a few more things, I'll be in touch.

I have the HP Scanjet G3110. A bunch of guys on here suggested it when I was looking for a new scanner. It does slabs great. I normally just use my Lexmark for quick scans in top loaders, but the G3110 is a must for slabs!
