Very happy with my Ripkens. I've been meaning to get them encased for a couple of years (now I've got all his 4 major RCs signed--got them done through his company a few years ago). This is my 2nd time sending in those Bryants. Got them all at Cubs ST back in 2015. Sent them last year, they were...
Hi folks,
I can't find how to check on the status on an order on their website. The last time I submitted a PSA/DNA order was during the old, old $10 special they had a few years ago (5+ years ago?). I seem to remember being able to input the number on my submission form to get updates, but I...
Hey everyone,
I think I made a post like this last year, but I'll try again. Every year a friend and I go to Spring Training in AZ. I come back with a little over 100 signed rookie cards for my collection. Anyway, to prepare for the trip I:
put together rosters of the teams we will see
comb...
4 days in Arizona last weekend: 152 autographed rookie cards. The highlights were Darvish, Mattingly, and Trammell. I get most of my autographed rookie cards from these yearly ST trips.
I collect autographed rookie cards. I get a lot signed each year at Spring Training and for the more inaccessible guys I save up and buy a PSA/DNA autographed RC every now and then. I'm proud to have these in my collection:
Happy Birthday, Danny! I just sent your gift. I had trouble figuring out what to get you, so I e-mailed you something instead. Oh, I forgot to add the picture. Here you go:
I'm going to grade all the Bagwell RCs... oh wait... then I'll grade all the Pudge Rodriguez RCs... oh... then I'll grade all the Chipper--nevermind. I still got a box of cards for $5!
Here is a picture of the Chipper Jones quad card for reference. The backs don't match the fronts. The condition is comparable to most of the ones I have--soft corners.
Thanks again for your help yesterday, folks. In order to get more information, I've added the cards I found to a photobucket album:
1988 Topps Football No Blue Ink On Back Photos by anthonyrdevine | Photobucket
Notice that they all lack blue ink on the back. I'm not sure that these are box...
Hi again, folks. Thanks for your help yesterday when I asked about the 1988 Topps Football cards I found in a thrift store in a binder that were missing blue ink. Now I'm wondering about 1990 Classic baseball: the set with the yellow border and blue backs. I saw a lot of these in the binder I...
I posted on the football boards 30 minutes ago, no views on my post, so I'll try here:
I am a baseball collector, so I don't know much about the football side of the hobby. I was in a thrift store today and picked up a binder with a bunch of biggio RCs and some Maddux RCs, and mixed in there...
Hi folks,
I am a baseball collector, so I don't know much about the football side of the hobby. I was in a thrift store today and picked up a binder with a bunch of biggio RCs and some Maddux RCs, and mixed in there were some football and hockey. Nothing too amazing as far as I can tell, but I'm...
I received my 3rd bubble mailer today!
Very cool personalized autographed RC with birthday wishes from Salvadore Perez of the Royals! Thank you Rich/sabrgeek! I got Perez' autograph at Spring Training last year, but this one is on his earlier 2010 card (mine is on a 2011 RC logo card--I always...
Wow, wow, wow! I got my first bubble mailer today. Thank you very much! I got an awesome Duke Snider autograph and an autographed Francisco Lindor Red IP Auto Refractor /25! These are awesome.
I saw this month's special is $15 for their autograph authentication and encapsulation service (blue flip). Will there ever be another $10 special like this? I send in some of my favorites to get authenticated--but with the amount I send in (25-30), the additional $5 has been a deterrent. Anyone...
I bought this card on COMC. I e-mailed them and hope to get a replacement or my money back. The bottom corner looked rough on the COMC scan, but I got the card today and that bottom corner is beat.
edit: Yeah, it's the same card--just more damaged than the original scan from COMC shows. I...
Hiram Bocachica Game Used Maple Bat (cracked). $6. Probably right around the market rate--any Hiram Bocachica fans out there? I also picked up one of the catchers mitts for a friend.
