I have 6.92 in eBay bucks. I'm buying a PC card with it. I don't have a specific card in mind, but most likely the eBay bucks will be spent on a 2013 TC or 2013 BC card.
2013 Washington Nationals
Best: Denard Span and Jayson Worth
Surprising worst: Adam LaRoche's .237 AVG w/20 HR
Surprise: Anthony Rendon and Wilson Ramos

A 2013 Topps Museum Collection Ryan Zimmerman Dual Patch Auto /25 popped up on ebay. Neither of the two patches are truly memorable and the Topps certified autograph is like all his others but the left patch has an MLB Authentication Program sticker on it.
The words "game used memorabilia"...
After reading your recent update it sounds like your up and moving around. Gradually working toward some sort of normalcy. You have supportive friends and family and a very good doctor.
What does the hobby "need"?
Global appeal? Asian distributors? China? Competition not just among a few collectors but rather competition among global distributors.
My mom mentioned Ryan Zimmerman's name a couple of times in passing conversation after he was called up from the minors replacing Vinny Castilla at third. At the time I was interested in getting back into the hobby. The Washington Nationals future third baseman was fun to watch on the field...
My thoughts and prayers are with those who now have the dubious task of cleaning up after Hurricane Sandy. The pictures that come out of the ravaged areas in the north east say it all. With that said the Metropolitan Museum of Art is open. And it's a really nice place to visit if you get the...
I doubt all ebay bidders notice the mix up on this Topps booklet. Three panels and three patches and I suppose Topps increases their odds of a mix up. Topps continues to miss opportunities to change their legacy. Topps forgets or doesn't understand that their cards are an advertisement for...
Hey Hofmichael, this year I was able to complete the 14 card Austin Kearns-Ryan Zimmerman rainbow from the 2007 Topps Co-Signers.

148/199 Silver Red
015/175 Silver Bronze
021/150 Silver Blue
011/125...
UD did a bang up job on the presentation. Amazing. I wonder what's mentioned on Civil War collector’s websites about this redemption. Honestly, do they even acknowledge this UD product as a resource for collecting? Not sure you take one of these shadow boxes to The Antique Roadshow for...
I like this topic/thread. I feel like the 1984 Donruss Mattingly and the 1985 Donruss Puckett sort of cancel each other out leaving a slot available for the iconic 1975 Topps George Brett rookie card.
I'm sure more have been drafted but four students were eventually drafted/signed from the time I attended the WV highschool.
Scott Bullet, Pittsburg Pirates, signed as amateur free agent, 1988
Marsalis Basey, Houston Astros, 16th Round, 1990
Doug Creek, St. Louis Cardinals, 7th Round, 1991...
Currently, a 2007 Topps Ryan Zimmerman NO NAME ERROR card is up for auction starting at 9.99 with zero bids. The seller has other players as well (listed below). Any guess on how the ebay seller came into a bunch of 2007 Topps NO NAME ERROR cards?
Are they from opening packs, or from...
I primarily collect Ryan Zimmerman, but there was a Jordan Zimmermann 2008 Bowman Chrome Auto Red /5 on ebay late last year. It’s a sharp looking card. (A couple of months before the start of the Jordan Zimmermann’s 2008 Bowman Chrome Auto Red /5 ebay auction, I also saw Jordan Zimmermann’s...
I try to get the news to you as quickly as I can.
This looks like a very great exhibit! If you live in the NY metropolitan area it would be worth the visit!

You probably won’t see a baseball card presentation quite like this one in awhile.
If you aren’t able to...
As a high school student there was something empowering about going to a checkout counter and saying I wanted to buy the whole box of 1987 Topps not just a pack or two. I would look at the cashier thinking I found this incredible deal in their store because I used the local hobby store pack...
