Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread
Imagine my excitement when I saw that A.J. Pollock had an autograph in a Topps product for the first time since his Bowman days. Then imagine how I felt when I saw the ugly POS http://www.ebay.com/itm/2016-Topps-Wacky-Packages-MLB-AJPOLLOCK-AUTOGRAPH-CARD-RARE-STAMPED-11-MAAP-/262330381949 But... -
Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread
Fairly solid game from Miller...hopefully he's still getting into form, definitely expect less base runners out of him. I tend to be a worrier, but this Pollock elbow soreness is really starting to concern me now. Glad the MRI came back clean, but the fact that it's lingering this long is scary. -
Most annoying PC card
I can't even look at this for more than a second -
1999 Topps Tek Gold Eric Chavez #47 of 60 BGS 9.5
Congrats! Always happy to see a new edition to your Chavez collection - always one of my favorites. -
Rolling Paul Goldschmidt PC thread
That Obak is awesome, I actually really liked that set when it came out, but never bought anything from it. One of my favorite parallel sets of the year is the acetates in the base Topps set. Got this bad boy in while I was on vacation, to go along with he 2015 version - still haven't seen a 2014. -
Finally landed my Fred McGriff Holy Grail
Very happy for you, nothing feels better as a player collector. Congrats! -
Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread
Oh yeah, I'm not unhappy with the price, I'd actually pay more, but it was definitely an "overpay" compared to others. But it isn't the first and won't be the last time I overpay! I had no idea Goldy's were that high. Damn, I think I paid about $60 for mine. Really wish I had gotten a Blue... -

It set me back a couple hundred - maybe overpaid, but didn't want to let it sit too long. Love me some Supers, especially in Heritage now. -

GREINKE FOR MVP! But seriously, can't wait to see this guy pitch. Wish I could watch at work somehow, but guess I'll settle for Opening Day! -

Ted Williams record, here comes Jean Segura! Sorry, got distracted by the Game of Thrones trailer. Can't wait to see what you get out of Heritage, it looks like a really fun break this year! -
Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread
Yeah, definitely would agree with that. I just don't see him making the roster as a 4th OF, I'm guessing Socrates Brito has that spot lined up. PS, I'm officially 1-3 in my Heritage Superfractor quest as of last evening's mail day! -
Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread
Oh yeah, not big on Owings at all. I do still like Lamb though, I think he has potential. I don't see much roster space for O'Brien, but who knows. I certainly don't see him having much of a future with the D-backs, so it'd be nice to get something good for him. -
Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread
Not sure what Owings is batting, but looks like Ahmed and Segura have the early lead on Owings for the 2 middle infield spots. Hell, even Weeks is ahead of him. -
2016 Heritage Kris Bryant Super Pulled (from Retail)
I love that they put this in retail as well - obviously it didn't happen in this case, but imagine if a kid pulled that in a retail pack - once in a lifetime. And I love the Superfractors in Heritage this year, a really nice surprise. I want all the D-backs! -
Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread
Hopefully he can rebound a bit here in the desert, I know he was having a rough time the past couple years in Milwaukee. -
Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread
awesome read, I knew most of his pitcher to hitter transition story, but didn't know about the McDonald's angle. Peralta is one of my other main collections, but unfortunately, not much out there to collect at this point. Hopefully he'll get a few more cards this year with all his success! -

Nothing new in lately, and probably won't be until next week, so figured I'd post some more pickups from the last couple months. 2015 Topps Update All-Star Stitches Gold/50 2015 Bowman's Best Blue Refractor/150, Gold Refractor/50 2012 Bowman Red Paper 1/1 2015 Topps Strata Clearly... -
Rolling Paul Goldschmidt PC thread
I think you're right, the BC super (non-auto at least) was sitting up on eBay for about a year. It started somewhere in the $2,000 range and I think ended up going as high as $3,500 or $4,000. It just seemed like the seller was displaying more than actually interested in selling it, but I... -
Rolling Paul Goldschmidt PC thread
I remember when those first editions hit, I was on vacation or something and missed out on the Goldschmidts. Definitely hope mother set or two get broken some time! -
Rolling Paul Goldschmidt PC thread
We do already have a D-backs collectors thread, but I figured Goldy deserved his own thread and I felt like it was time to start posting some of the PC. Everyone feel free to share your Goldy's and/or just talk about the 2016 MVP :D My buying is really slowing down here lately, but I got a... -
2016 Topps Chrome Sell Sheets (Includes 2015 Topps Chrome Carlos Correa Autos)
Hmm, the Superfractor could turn out pretty nice this year - I'm a big fan of the 2016 base design, though I know others aren't. Hoping they turn out a little better than 2015 at least, didn't find that they popped very much last year. -
Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread
Yeah, I love the Acetates, that may be my favorite Pollock. I tried putting together the 2015 D-backs set and got pretty far, but 2016 has been a bust - I've only seen 3 players so far (Bracho, Godley and Lamb). Nothing from the rest of the team. -
Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread
I'll post the few AJ's I have (have a blue Refractor autograph as well). Really hoping his national attention this past season gets him in more sets!
