Hi, I'm a 21 year old from England. I've only been collecting for about 6 months. I mainly collect baseball and football cards, and I'm a massive Rays and Steelers fan. I've already become addicted to busting wax, not something that's easy to explain to friends and family in the UK where card collecting is something people don't know much about.

I'm looking forward to getting to know the community.

Hi everyone, I have recently joined and look forward to completing some old sets, and new sets, and hopefully find the last few Gregg Jefferies cards I'm missing as I supercollect him (any help would be appriciated). I look forward to getting back into trading after not since grade school.

Hey, I'm new to the board. I have been collecting off and on for the last 15 years. I am a big fan of Glavine and Smoltz, and any of the Braves from the Bobby Cox era. I look forward hanging out in the forum!

Hey folks, I'm Matt. I stumbled into the new Alpharetta store and met Chris yesterday while he was setting up shop and thought I'd join.

I'm from the northern suburbs of Atlanta. I'm 30 years old and have been collecting since '84. I collect Braves (Murphy, Heyward, Freeman, Hanson, Teheran, Vizcaino, Delgado), Thrashers (Kane, Burmistrov), and any former University of Georgia Football or Baseball players. I also have an expanding pre-WW2 tobacco collection. I bust a lot of wax, but have very little time to sort or list anything. Pretty much just do it for fun when I want a break from work. I hope I can help some of you guys out with cards you're looking for to complete sets or random low serial numbered cards I'm sure I have stored away somewhere.

Hi everyone. My name's Jim. I'm 31 and live in SoCal. I am new to the board but have been buying, selling, and collecting on and off for years. I am originally from the Bay Area and am a big Oakland A's fan. Besides the A's, I like collecting rookies, prospects and anything else that catches my eye.

Hey guys my name is Andrew I'm from Indianapolis, I'm 23 and bought cards every weekend as a kid at the comic shop (this eventually turned into pokemon, and then nothing) Recently I picked up a pack at Target (Allen & Ginter) and have since fallen back in love with baseball (and basketball) cards. I am a huge Cincinnati Reds fan, and thus am hoping to collect primarily Reds cards, including Pokey Reese who is one of my top 3 all time players along with Larkin and Griffey Jr. The reason I love Pokey so much, aside from being a great player and having a cool name, is that when I was a kid I stood on the field with him at an Indianapolis Indians game during the national anthem, he shook my hand, chatted with me, etc, I loved it and told him I hoped he made it to the majors one day, and boy he sure did.

Hey Guys! I'm Adam, I'm 22. I live in Greentown,IN very close to Kokomo,IN (maybe a little more familiar for people) As a kid my brother who is 15 years older than myself would buy me cards for my birthday and christmas etc. I loved them, thought they were the coolest thing. He collected from the ages of 15-22 and now that my nephew is interested in cards they collect together. It's a good bonding experience for us 3. I recently started collecting again. I've collected toy tractors, die cast rusty wallace cars, records and band t-shirts and now Ive moved back to one of my original loves. I am a huge Atlanta Braves fan. I was 7 years old when they won the '95 world series and I remember it like it was yesterday and I have watched the '95 WS tape a thousand times. My favorite players happen to be the World Series Heroes Tom Glavine and Dave Justice. When I played baseball I would try to copy everything those guys did rather it was pitching or hitting. I collect their cards mainly but I do love anything to do with the Atlanta Braves. I collect a few other playes as well which you will see in my signature. Looking forward to being involved in this community.

Thanks,
Adam
