Wow, PWCC is even selling one of the unlicensed/fake '88 SB spirit cards that was errantly graded by PSA. Tsk Tsk.

Just send em to COMC and have them do it. $.20/card is well worth the time you'd spend cataloging your collection on your own. You don't have to list them for sale and I believe they store them for free. If it's stuff you have just sitting in a box, why not? My 2 pesos...
Nice hit! One of my fav autos, and horribly tough to pull. I opened 11+ cases in 2012 and pulled exactly 1. Hate that they hid some in retail, but glad u got lucky. Congrats!
I'm not saying they weren't hard to pull, 1:2880 packs is VERY TOUGH, but that doesn't mean they're that rare...depends on the production run of the product. Anyone know how many cases/boxes/packs were produced? I'm not aware of any serial #'d inserts, so it's tough to back into a total from the...
the gold medallions were going for $60 a pop or less for the last few years... I honestly don't know what's changed. A few new griffey collectors perhaps?

If you've ever played Bunt, Huddle or Kick you'd understand. The apps allow you to purchase single card packs for pennies on the dollar and most don't spend any $$ on the app b/c you can get "coins" for free. The # of "packs" sold is irrelevant and tells you nothing about the success or failure...
It'll be a nice ride until it ends...that collection of geriatric reprobates in the Yanks dugout need a youthful spark to get the energy up. Can't believe he's still batting 9th...
Honestly, I'm sure others could share better war stories about him, but I remember he was one of 3-4 guys that bought nearly all the high end Griffeys in the early 2000's. I was just getting back into collecting around then but he beat me on nearly every auction and he'd buy multiple copies of...
Lol, just read the last few pages of the thread and felt like I was on a Griffey themed episode of Justified. Anyone else wanna pull?
FWIW, medoogan is a trustworthy guy IMO, and as others have pointed out, auctions close at crazy prices for a whole host of reasons besides shilling. I get the...
