############### Morning Thread ######

Starting a player collection is more difficult than I thought, realizing I'm outta the loop regarding rare/desirable cards and their pricing.

Who are you going after?

 

[TBTwinsFan]

Good morning/afternoon.

No class, so it's a study day.

Mailday! These arrived while I was out of town. Seems like Panini is doing a better job these days in getting redemptions out. I received an update from Panini stating that my Norris Cole RPA was shipped yesterday also.

Maddux.

So his reality check is probably a bit harsher than others.

Morning all...... cleaning out closets.....Yay!

This is gonna be a strange question, but if anyone needs any golf/polo shirts (grandslam, golden bear, etc. the kind that don't need to be ironed) LMK as I'm literally emptying my entire closet since nothing fits and I hate putting stuff on ebay. Most are XXL with a couple XL,short sleeve/long sleeve, pants as well. I'm not looking for much at all and they're in great shape.

Back to your regularly scheduled programming....

I'd be in for some 2XL polo's

Yeah my thing so far Charlie is just re-familiarizing myself with his more desirable and rare cards and what a realistic price would be. I knew going in he wouldn't be cheap, and cost really isn't my issuse, but having little to no idea what I should expect to pay for said card is what I'm working on.

Good Morning Gents! Already at work a couple hours early but I get to leave early too which is nice. Heading out to see Starship Troopers being done by MST3K/Riff Trax tonight which should be pretty funny.

Get some auto's for me. I'm SUPER jealous, Alex ! Have fun !

That's what can be tough.

Knowing what BINs are reasonable. Knowing what kind of offers to make.

I would if I could Dave! Unfortunately I believe this round is streamed Still looking forward to it. They couldn't get the license to keep it either, so this movie riff can only be seen in the theaters.

Boo to all that noise . They're going to be in Milwaukee the 21st, but there'll be no way to get there as we're traveling from Ely to Oshkosh early that day. I wish they'd have a convention with everyone there so I could get my book signed and to get my photo with them.

I will be improving my own personal record in a couple of weeks. This year I set a personal record of making it to 5 MLB games. Well I will be making it 6 on the 28th Its the last weekend of the season, and my dad has yet to make it to a Twins game. Yesterday I got to looking at the schedule and decided if he would be able to make it work. He texted me while I was in class this afternoon letting me know he got it off and to look out for tickets. Now its just a waiting game on hearing if my sister will be going as well. We are just going to get cheap tickets, and it will be a short trip for me, but I'm not ready for the season to be over.

I'd be happy to help....

Pack of Ginter yielded a Pele mini with no text on back. Was it ever figured out why Topps did this?

Also got a Dawson base, and a Seager SP

Thanks Steve I really appreciate the offer. Its good to know there are some knowledgeable Maddux collectors on this board willing to help.
