Here we go again!
This is why buying new player autographs is so frustrating when you don't beat the idiots and secure a copy early. Whoever these people are have more $ than smarts. it might seem a bit harsh, judgmental perhaps, let people collect how they want, but actions affect more than yourself sometimes... -
New Arrivals - Sharing our new acquisitions in a single thread starting in 2026 and beyond
No mail delivery today, but getting this ongoing "new arrivals" topic ready for a new year. Let's try something different this year though. Instead of a new monthly new arrival thread where past months disappear when the new month hits, let's just open one for the entire year (and beyond)... -
Bo Jackson Battle Arena
Does anyone understand this issue or know how I might find some info on how easy (or hard) it would be to find specific cards? Garvey is in the latest set and many have shown up for stupid high prices, which I am just ignoring. However, some have started low, but I really don't want to overpay... -
December 2025 New Arrivals
Came across this with a BIN for $4. I'd love to find something similar for his 77T card. Had this already, but $4 was a deal! Pat Dobson was a 1X AS in his 11 year career from 1967-77 and it was the year he lead the league in LOSSES! The prior year, he won 20 games for the only time in his... -
How much sharing is appropriate?
I won a card recently. It was a graded autographed card, but the holder didn't provide any pertinent information as to what the card actually was. It just says Trading Card. I am not going to divulge the details quite yet, but this is a fairly scarce item and the information about it has been... -

November 2025 New Arrivals
Starting out a new month. Mail has not arrived today yet, so technically these were October gains, but I want to share a big one and few read the older threads after they get replaced. K. Mack mini Bowman auto The big add comes shortly... -
October 2025 New Arrivals
Starting the month off with a puff (as opposed to a bang). Kevin Willis. The rest of the mail day was Dodger related and posted on my Dodger thread. -
Facebook/Whatnot
I just watched a whatnot show last night hosted by a local card shop I used to visit pretty frequently, but over the last couple years have not due to distance. They are a great shop and the show offered a pretty decent variety of new and old, autos, game used, rookies, low end and some higher... -
August 2025 New Arrivals
I got nothing non-Dodger related in the mail today, but figured I'd start the new month's sharing thread. -
Pining for the past. A perfect card to sum up my feelings.
I know things change. I am not resistant to it, but some things are just a shame to lose. One of those is penmanship, specifically to the hobby of collecting autographs. We really don't need to draft things in cursive any longer. The signature though, it a lost art that I do miss. I am... -
July 2025 New Arrivals
Starting out July with a couple Fred Lynn Donruss Team Heroes. One is the Chicago show /5 and the auto is /50 Then a /10 gold parallel from same set, following year of Brett Myers. It was a good set, wish they would have continued it. -
I just sent out my first TTM in probably 7-8 years today. Hoping to be able to report a success...
...but this is alsoa big reason I have never invested a great deal of time in it. I hate the unsureness of it all. I have historically only sent to a handful of people, most of whom were pretty much guaranteed. Aside from those I have sent to, most of the easy signatures are those I have...- mrmopar

June 2025 Arrivals
Cousins, Gore and McAdoo. Nice start of the month, but no baseball unless you count my Dodgers. -
Brandon Inge 2010 Heritage IP autograph blowing up on ebay
I won’t post the link here out of respect. You’ll have to go to eBay to see it. It’s easy enough to find it. 2010 Heritage reportedly inscribed and signed by Inge with an inappropriate comment. When I first saw it, I doubted it was real. With bidding close to $800 now, I still wonder... -
BCW vs Ultra Pro?
Has anyone used BCW supplies, specifically 1 pocket album sheets for 8x20 and magazines, and would you recommend them? I need to replenish. I know I like the ultra pro quality. I am unsure about BCW. It looks like a few sellers have boxes relatively cheap, which makes me think that they... -
My gut is screaming out to me that this isn't right somehow.
I am going to conceal the identities for now, as I am unsure if there are any legal issues sharing an ebay user name and mailing address on a public forum, especially if I have no proof there is any wrong doing happening. If you are sharp, or even somewhat dull, you might still be able to... -
Name a modern player of any significance who has NO certified autographs
Besides the obvious selections who died before certified autographs became mainstream (think 1990 was the first recognized pack inserted certified auto but it wasn’t really mainstream for several more years), can you think of a player who should have had one but didn’t. “Cuts” technically... -
January 2025 Arrivals
Starting out the year with a Rod Carew /15 and a Len Dawson archives -
The ebay purchase that keeps on giving!
A play on words with the old saying, The gift that keeps giving. First, a brief background on how I used to (and still do) collect base cards. I have not purchased packs or boxes for a very long time and after the 80s and buying factory sets each year for a decade or so, I have never been much... -
December 2024 Arrivals
Starting off the last month of 2024 with this Garr /25 -
The 2025 White Sox are about to take the crown!
As the worst team in modern baseball history. In case you have not been paying attention (and most probably have not been monitoring the White Sox this season), they are tied with the 1962 NY Mets with the most losses in a season with 120. Of course the Mets were a brand new expansion club and... -
USPS deserves some follow-up props for this one, especially given all the frequent negativity surrounding their handling of packages
I bought a card through ebay back on December 15, 2023. After a few weeks and tracking going cold, I requested a refund. The seller obliged without incident or argument on January 9, 2024 and we went our separate ways. Fast forward to today, when I am opening my last package of the day. I... -
How not to flip a card!
I admit, I take great satisfaction in seeing this. The person who won this card on 8/15/24 sure looks the fool here. I don't know the circumstances, but it is a cautionary tale to stay in your lane or with what you know or risk this happening. Either that or foul play is happening here. The... -
September 2024 Arrivals
Surprised to be starting this one again, on 9/3, although it was the first mail day of September. This card is a little worse than it looks to the naked eye, as it appears someone left it out to fade. Damn shame too. Gold /5
