    Topps Auto'ed Gold Infused Baseball Redemption - SHOCKING UPDATE!

    I agree that legal action may not be effective but there are other avenues a consumer has to complain about a company not delivering on their promises. First they can complain to the Better Business Bureau, maybe drive Topps rating down until someone looks into it. A better option though is to...

    Guess Beckett Grading Services Has Resorted to Making Cold Calls

    Nope, as a matter of fact when I join BMB in 1998 or so I had a different number.

    Topps Auto'ed Gold Infused Baseball Redemption - SHOCKING UPDATE!

    To me, Topps is making the same types of mistakes that Upper Deck was making. Upper Decks' mistakes lead to the MLB granting the exclusive license to better protect the consumer.

    Topps Auto'ed Gold Infused Baseball Redemption - SHOCKING UPDATE!

    How can MLB continue to allow Topps to f'up every product and promotion? It seems to me that they gave the exclusive license to Topps so that collectors would have an "official" card manufacture and know that these cards represent the MLB in a good light. Topps has fallen off a cliff with...

    Guess Beckett Grading Services Has Resorted to Making Cold Calls

    Got an odd call this morning, from Beckett Grading Services offering a deal. Funny thing is that I have never graded a card, and haven't really thought about submiting something other than pre-war vintage. When I let the rep know I had no desire to grade cards at this time they hung up. Anyone...

    2012 Leaf Memories Sell Sheets and Checklist (1990 Leaf Design)

    It would be awesome to have a buyback auto set of the 1992 Leaf Black Gold parallels.

    2012 Leaf Memories Sell Sheets and Checklist (1990 Leaf Design)

    Hey!!! I would love to see a 2012-2013 remake of the 2004 Donruss/Leaf Recollection Robby Thompson 1990 Leaf buyback auto that I posted earlier, but Thompson wore #6 throughout his career, so a copy might have been tough to track down. Of course there are very, very few Giants on the checklist...

    2012 Leaf Memories Sell Sheets and Checklist (1990 Leaf Design)

    Have any of these buy-backs been offered through Donruss when they were producing the Recollection auto sets? I ask this because I have a Recollection auto of Robby Thompson from the 1990 Leaf set.

    Umm.... Mike Schmidt 5 Star Bat Knob?

    Is it possible that it's from a Schmidt bat that was used by another player? I know that some of the game used bats I've collected over the years were used by other players. For example I have a Robby Thompson bat that was used by Jay Canizaro, the barrell has Thompson on it, but on the knob is...

    anyone looking for extra cash for XMAS or even for some new cards??? sell twinkies on eaby

    Actually, many of those who are losing jobs where also the ones who chose to strike and leave the company in a position where there was no turning back and liquidation was the only option.

    Yup, he should be a senior in college.

    MONSTER - Josh Johnson/Buehrle/Reyes to TOR For Alvarez/Escobar/Hechavarria/Nicolino/Marisnick

    Great deal for the Jays but they sure are pinning their hopes on this trade. They're going to be taking on a huge chunk of salary for players who didn't exactly excel in Florida.

    3 Players you loved watching who were not very famous in baseball.

    Buster the new Derek Jeter of baseball for the future?

    I agree, I just posted this in World Series thread as well, but I still find it hilarious that people think 2010 was some sort of fluke, or that the Giants just had magical luck. In the second half of 2010 the Giants lead the NL in home runs, in September the pitching staff had the 4th lowest...

    Buster the new Derek Jeter of baseball for the future?

    But that was one game, the Giants won the next two as well, on the road vs the Reds #2 and #3 starters, who as you pointed out lead the Redsto the 2nd best record in the league. The Reds weren't in the lead of game 3 when Rolen made the error and they still had an opportunity to bat in the...

    I still find it hilarious that people think 2010 was some sort of fluke, or that the Giants just had magical luck. In the second half of 2010 the Giants lead the NL in home runs, in September the pitching staff had the 4th lowest ERA in history for a month, they made up 10 games in the standings...
