2 year search finally ends on eBay - SPA Gold Style

[bradical]

I don't buy much basketball stuff, but when I like some players potential I try and pick up a few of their high-end rare cards when I see them.

For the past 2 years I have been searching for a 2006-07 SPA LaMarcus Aldridge Gold Auto. I have seen one other on eBay and it sold for $250 at the end of last year. The Blazers and Aldridge are off to a hot start this season so I was hoping another one would show up soon, but at a decent price. I was able to snag it at a fraction of its original price, so I was happy.

Very happy.

Well, last week, one did show up, however, my automated search did not find it, as the seller forgot to add "auto" in the description. So, I find it lucky that I stumbled across the auction anyway.

So, here she is, in all her glory:

Wow, that's an awesome card! I loooooove SPA Golds - are you PCing that, or are you hoping he keeps up his hot play for a nice flip?

Aldridge is a beast this year. Putting together all of the things he was inconsistently showing last season. Cant wait till he's a FA and a better team snaps him up. He needs to be somewhere with a better big man.

GREAT card! Some of these have pretty ****** looking sigs on them, but this one looks perfect.

Great card, congrats. I've always thought he should be worth more than he is. The kid just keeps producing.

Probably include in the next FCB Group Sub and then flip if the Blazers go deep in the playoffs.
