Should be an interesting format...thoughts?
Let me know when you've found a weirder thread title..... Or sketch card

I know we've had our fill of Tempy Moore et al, but this one cracked...
Just a week after all-pro Patrick Willis retired at 30, his replacement Chris Borland, 24, retires.
Pretty shocking, he was a solid young player. 49ers 3rd round pick a year ago and had an awesome rookie season. Graded PFF's No. 4 inside linebacker...
Maybe just the line to the B next? Idk.
If I was on a comp I'd try posting the regression over the years.
Makes you appreciate the guys that actually care that much more.
Let's not construe this as just another Jeter thread. What do you guys think of this concept being developed by Jeter?
Will be interesting to see what athletes participate.

With his second 4 K outing in 10 games, Javier Baez tied Cal Ripken Jr., Frank Thomas, and Willie McCovey for career four-strikeout contests.
He's sure going to be fun to follow, but hopefully he slows down on accumulating these bad boys.
Moving really soon and trying to consolidate all of my football. Looking to trade this lot for 1-2 cards (any sport) or $299 dlvd. This lot will not be broken up.
Closer individual scans of the entire lot can be found here: Football - Imgur
List of cards as follows:
2012 Stephen Hill SP...
Yes, these are real autographs ::facepalm::

Extension kicks in after this season where he is due to make 5.6m.
Nice to see the Yankees retain a homegrown talent prior to hitting free agency for a change.
This thought popped in my head today when I received a 1997 Topps Jeter Autograph in a PWE, luckily unharmed from the shipping process.
What is the most valuable card you have received in a PWE?
Hoping not to see too many high-end cards, but I am sure it is inevitable! :(
Didn't plan on creating a thread, but figured I would throw up a few.
Hopefully next time I can put together some nicer stuff.
I'll need payment tonight as I will be travelling for work this week, otherwise it will not be shipped until next Saturday. Payment tonight will result in being...
Well the sticker autograph has been around for approximately a decade or so and I while I typically shoot for on card autographs for my PC, there are certain sticker autographs that I find suitable for my PC.
The below items have all been pulled off eBay and none of them are my items, they are...
I recently won a card where the shipping was $6, which made up 15% of the total sales price. I messaged the seller prior to bidding to ask if he had any other shipping options because it was listed as expedited and he lives less than 50 miles from me, thus knowing I would see it in 1-2 days...
The thread about the change in eBay bucks that caused an uproar had me thinking, where would this hobby honestly be without eBay?
I'll let the conversation start to brew before I post some of my own thoughts!
Current count: 26
Everyone loves seeing sweet patches, so I figured a version of the numbers game exclusively using patches would be fun!
The rules are simple.
You post a card with a serial number that begins with the number we are searching for and then we see how high we can count just...
Mulder hasn't pitched in a major league game since 2008, but since he left the game so early he should still have something left in the tank at 36.
The latest has the Angels as the front-runner to take a flyer on Mulder:
"The 36-year-old southpaw is attempting to make a comeback, and has...
UPDATE: I know this thread is a few months old, but I decided to add some of my new pieces in a new post rather than creating another thread. Look forward to seeing some art!
I have gained a much larger appreciation for art over the last few months and I've had the opportunity to commission a...
Asking $310 shipped in a Large Flat Rate Box.
Will also trade for 1-3 cards (Any major sport), but they would have to be popular/easy to move cards so I can flip then for the owner.
Back story: My father's friend used to own a store during the 80's-90's before shutting down. He packaged all...
Ran across this auction last night and found it very odd he was charging 27.99 for shipping. I decided to send him a message asking if it was a typo and received "no it's my bottom line" as a response. Upon further inspection, he deploys this tactic with most of his auctions:
Kevin Gausman...
Long story short. Sold 4 boxes (not sealed) of 1989 UD low number. Buyer refusing to pay because the boxes were not sealed (Despite my description/picture being as clear as day). Were these boxes originally sealed? It appears most boxes appear the same as mine.
Thanks!
I have been focusing on my new collection since December, but have tried to be selective and cost conscious during my search. Basically, I am only trying to keep my collection to patches /35 or less and trying my best to keep them HOF or Future HOFers (Slipped with a few: Upton, Johnson)...
Lets say a card sells on 1/1, is shipped the following business day, and according to the delivery confirmation, was delivered by 1/7.
On 1/17, the buyer sends a message that the item that they paid for was not received.
As the seller, I follow up with the tracking information and the...
Got lucky with the plate and pulled some of the bigger named base (Harper, Cano, Darvish, etc):
