I've been wondering this for a while and as I have branched out to picking up the earliest rookies, particularly autographed versions, in all sports I collect, I was wondering exactly how a guy can have a USA card or afflac/perfect game card or even the topps McDonald's All American card and...
I usually end up buying completed sets of all the base topps stuff(factory set and then get a completed update set) as well as heritage, GQ, A&G, and Bowman. But Topps Opening Day is one of the few sets I actively bust packs to build (been doing a lot more wax busting of basketball lately...
I'm sure there are many ways to look at this question so in my opinion, there are some obvious things we should get out of the way. One being, how things are stored are always a factor. Another is type of item signed. Another is what it was signed with.
These are all things I weigh in my mind...
Not so much the site, but the sellers. Plenty of these sellers have all these cards listed, I sit down at night after work trying to put things in my cart to finish off sets, and people end up just refunding me because they have it listed but don't have the card. Got pretty ticked off at a...
For a card I paid $8 for two years ago, all I can say is I wish I had found more. For some reason, topps in general for that year(09-10) is not easy to find. I never even saw a box for sale at a local shop or show. But for a base rookie non-auto/non-gu/non-numbered card to be getting over $200...
Ok, so I collect various sets. One of the problems I am having is when I go back and try to complete various sets that are not finished, for some reason(maybe it's my OCD), I feel the need to do the sp photo variations for them. Now, I don't do it for every set. But for some reason I'm really...
Title pretty much says it all. Looking for series 1&2 green emerald parallels. I'd prefer to buy lots as opposed to just a couple of cards to make it worth the time of all involved. I'm not sure how easy it's going to be to complete this set so hopefully this goes well. I'm open to negotiation...
Been building this set from blaster boxes, rack packs, and whatever I find at shows. Really dig the red white and blue parallel set only available in the rack packs. Anyone else bust any of this? I'm looking to finish my set of anyone has any they'd part with that I need.
Is this set going to...
I busted a box of these, love the photography and would like to complete the set. I have 74 cards as of right now. The ones I have are as follows:
1, 4, 6, 8, 9, 14, 15, 17, 19, 20, 21, 23, 25, 26, 28, 33, 36, 39, 40, 41, 43, 45, 53, 54, 55, 60, 71, 72, 75, 76, 77, 78, 80, 81, 86, 87, 88, 90...
I just recently started trying to build the base set and all the insert sets(it's the only base topps set I actually build...I'm usually too lazy to build baseball) and tonight I decided to hop on Cardboard Connection and see where I stand on the inserts. My god there is a million of them! I've...
I've noticed more than 1 of certain players and I'm specifically interested in Bagwell. I see another one up and it's a different date than mine. Both it and mine are /1. A quick search pulls up 2 different Geoff Jenkins 1/1's, both with different dates. All my old Becketts don't even list the...
I love watching it every year. Sad thing is, it comes on every year when I'm usually doing the majority of my fishing(save for the first cool weather we have which I take advantage of due to certain fish running in heavier numbers in the gulf) and it always makes me a little leery about getting...
I already posted this in the Bagwell thread but nobody posted a reply so here we go: Waht is this and what exact set is it from? I can't find it listed in my checklist. The copyright on the back does indeed say it's from 2005 but it's not from the regular upper deck game jersey subset because I...
I've opened about forty or so packs trying to complete the sticker album and am still 69 or so shy. I've got tons to trade. Any interest? If so I'll get up a needs and stickers for trade list.

I understand dress codes because growing up where I did, people were and still are dumb enough to fight over colors let alone t-shirts but this is a little above and beyond. If they ban American flag...
