New Arrivals - Sharing our new acquisitions in a single thread starting in 2026 and beyond
2015 Fleer Showcase #S20 Connor McDavid /499 -- A sharp looking rookie year insert. I have been buying more hockey than anything else the last few months. Working thru McDavid's checklist during the off-season to see what else makes my short list. So much high-end stuff, but trying to pick up a... -

Thank you! None of the Excel sell sheets I've found on my searches had checklists. Neither of the two have been parallel autographs, just the base auto versions. I would love to see a full checklist. -

2021 Topps Archives Never Forgotten Joe Torre Auto -- An upgrade to my existing Torre autograph (also from Archives but from 2018). The 2001 World Series was a memorable one, bringing the nation together at a very difficult time. This set was featured on the sell sheets but never made it into... -

1950-51 Toleteros Reprint Sample -- Given out by Lelands in 2005 at the NSCC promoting the discovery of this previously unknown set/card at the time of auction. I will never own the original, but happy to have this in my small Josh Gibson collection. Staying away from the shiny stuff and... -

2006 Topps Allen & Ginter Bazooka #314 Jim Thorpe /25 Thorpe remains the gold standard for pure athleticism. Even in the era of Ohtani, Thorpe’s legacy looms large a century later. He didn't just play three sports; he dominated them, proving his range as an Olympic gold medal winning... -

Something I never set out to do, but I somehow picked up a complete game-used uniform for under $200 shipped this year. Although the jersey is from batting practice and technically not used in an actual game, I'll take it for this price. Steiner stuff has always been outrageously priced, $200... -
November 2025 New Arrivals
Agreed. It's a business, and has always been a business. The collector and quality of product just doesn't matter at the higher level. Topps/Fanatics has been promoting collecting a great deal, but cards have essentially become another avenue for gambling revenue, much like their Betting &... -
November 2025 New Arrivals
2022-23 Metal Universe Dylan Guenther Retro Purple Spectrum FX RC /199 --- An aesthetically pleasing card on three counts: (1) classic '90s design, (2) purple color match, (3) "pose match" to the team's logo. UD's hockey products remain top notch, I wish they still had a baseball license. A... -

2012 Topps Heritage #54 Rookie Stars Error SSP -- Bit the bullet on this card, doesn't surface often. No odds listed, but a tough pull.
