New PC/project recommendations?
I like the raw vintage set idea. A bunch of them from the 70's wouldn't be too expensive yet. '73 has a ton of HOF'ers in it that are still reasonably priced but are all-time great names like Mays, Clemente, Aaron, Rose. People always love the '72 or '75 sets because of the designs too...- swish54_99

Upcoming EBAY changes!!
I rarely, if ever, run auctions. Most of my stuff I sell is BIN/BO but I am very happy about this change. It's just common sense that hey, I bid on this and won, it's mine now, so I need to pay. The way it should be. Over the last 20 years, Ebay had slowly taken so much away from the...- swish54_99

Vintage Pick Up Thread
Picked this cool 1935 Babe Ruth magazine piece up at a local flea market. The story with it is kind of crazy. I was at a local estate sale 4 days ago.

How much sharing is appropriate?
As my collecting focus ebbs and flows and changes with the times, I'm not really looking for uber rare items like you do where competition can determine weather you add it to your collection or someone else adds it to theirs. There was a chunk of my collecting focus where I got autographs...- swish54_99

PSA Launches fulfillment service for repackers
Seems like the new ownership group at PSA are really trying to expand the brand into other areas of the hobby since taking over. You've got the vault service, being able to have them grade and then list on ebay for you, buying SGC, and now this. I personally don't get into the whole...- swish54_99

R.I.P, Dave Parker
I knew Parker was a big dude, but he and Stargell together make Clemente look like a tiny human. Cool pic.- swish54_99

R.I.P, Dave Parker
That's too bad so close to induction. At least he knew he got in to the HOF, although it should have come years sooner.- swish54_99

Upper Deck to combat patch swapping in cards
This should've happened 15 years ago. I do think it's something that will be well accepted within the hobby and will catch on to other sets/manufacturers.- swish54_99

RIP MagicPapa!!
Such sad news. I never really had much conversation with him, but everything that I saw, he seemed like a stand up guy with a real heart for collecting. We definitely need more people like him in the hobby.- swish54_99
