2004 Bowman Draft about to "BUSH PLODE"
The worse part of the story is that he was (is) the suspect in 2 OTHER hit and run accidents with pedestrians on the same night he almost killed a guy! If I remember correctly, he was the consensus worst #1 draft pick in history about 11 seconds after the choice was made. Bad make-up... -

Finalizing 25 man rosters
Please explain how the Indians are "awful". Best pitching staff in the league, upgraded power, and a full year from Lindor and Gomes. -

Not getting ebay promos ? READ- maybe this will help you
Had the 1000 free listings in early March, and just got the 2000 free ones good through the 27th. Also had one each in January and February. Greg -

Not getting ebay promos ? READ- maybe this will help you
I'll go through stretches where I get one or the other. I'll go 4-5 months where I get all the seller promos and NONE of the eBay bucks ones. Then I'll go another 4 months with the opposite. Right now in in a "seller" phase - haven't had an eBay bucks promo in about 4 months :( -

Was Ick Leonard a ***** Leaguer??
Good ol' Ick Leonard!! I remember him fondly from the En Urns documentary Aseball! One of the truly great Egro league players, along with Osh Bson and Atchell Ige! -

Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #3
No pic yet because I just won it, but I FINALLY can call off a 17 year search!! After all this time, the first ever 1999 Fleer Tradition Starting 9 Carlos Baerga popped up and I won it!! For WAY less than my max snipe, too!! I can at last cross off a card from my want list that I NEVER... -

Any early hunches on how many of each 2015 Ginter Buyback?
Don't forget, a bunch more were inserted into the Ginter X product that Topps released online. They said they "held back" some of the print run of all the inserts, relics, and autos for that release. I've cracked about 36 boxes of it and have pulled an average of 2 full size buybacks and 1... -

Now you can buy 1285 sets at once!
But he's not selling them - that's the point. He's hauling the same stuff he's always had in at the same price, and hauling it all back out unsold. I'm saying I've seen the exact same pieces of product - not just the same type of set, but the exact same boxes, year after year. So yeah, I... -

Now you can buy 1285 sets at once!
This is one thing I'll never understand. There's a local show that happens quarterly in my area, and it is a rock solid guarantee lock that there's a guy selling the same stuff now that he was in 1999. All the sets you never wanted but could still find for $1 online, being sold for $4 apiece... -

Now you can buy 1285 sets at once!
Quarter a set sounds about right. There's so much junk and so much volume of each set it would take 2-3 years to work through it all. Once you factor in purchase price and eBay/PayPal fees, you'd be lucky to get $500 out of it. Patience is the key for this one. Ca -

That lot is the perfect description of every time someone comes to me and says they have a ton of cards from when they collected as a kid and expects a million dollar offer.... "Dude I have all the sets from like 1986 to 1992! Real good condition! I even have a Canseco RC!" Followed by a... -

Player Collectors: Do You Count Team Cards for Your Player?
I don't unless my guy is prominently featured and/or visible. I'll extend this out - where does everyone stand on massive multiplayer cards? Things like the 1997 Pro Shooter checklist, the 1993-1994 Black Gold "You've Just Won" cards... I personally have them in my Baerga collection but I'm... -

I leave feedback on every transaction, but I find I get feedback left for me only about 70% of the time. Most people just don't bother anymore :( -

Buy backs in 2016 Topps feature rarity levels
I'm BEGGING someone with a better grasp on technology than me to redo that video to show the actual cards you'll be getting. The creased 1974 Andy Messersmith, the 1962 Del Crandall that was run over by a bus, the 1979 Rico Carty with a corner missing, and all the 2002-2010 common cards :).
