    Anyone submitting to BGS... don't type in your CC#

    The biggest concern is submitting over unsecured or shared wireless. Otherwise there's only a low risk that something would happen. I think though that if someone has already had this happen to them, they wouldn't actually know when their card got hijacked and may not associate sending Beckett...

    Anyone submitting to BGS... don't type in your CC#

    As a first time submitter to BGS, I decided to submit the form electronically. However I noticed in Step 3 when they ask you for a credit card # they don't bother to properly secure the page or the following pages by using Secure HTTP (HTTPS). I would advise anyone to not submit your credit...

    The Night Crew Part 3!

    Looking at what I need to do to submit a card to BGS. I'm thinking of just putting my card in a magnetic case and then putting it in a fiber padded envelope but BGS says you shouldn't send from padded envelopes. Do people really send them off in those Express Mail boxes like they show in Step 6...

    Kaleb Cowart Superfractor Auto listed

    I don't look for prospects but the last few times I went (last time being last week) there isn't as much "new" cards as there is, "pretty recent" cards. There's about 2-3 tables of vintage stuff from the mid 50s-mid 60s, 4+ tables that are selling specific players or cards from 2004-2009, and...

    B. Harper: "I couldn't care less what people say about me"

    Re: Bryce Harper: "I could care less what people say about me" It's just Bryce being Bryce. There's no question about it, he is one of the hottest players to come around in a long time. He's an explosive player, in a league of his own, and _obviously_ the numbers he's putting up speak for...

    Gypsy Queen Art GU 1/1

    The colored ones are done by Monty Sheldon, the black and white sketches are done by Dave Hobrecht. Contrary to what was said, I believe only some B&Ws are redemptions, none of the ones done by Sheldon are redemptions.

    Ichiro Hitting .252?

    He's had 76 hits in 283 AB this year. In the next 283 AB he needs to make 94 hits to bring his average up to .300, or a 23% improvement in how he's currently hitting. We'll see at the break how far behind he is to hit 0.300 / 200 hits but right now its still doable.
