All card shops should have a babysitter next door!

Nice pickups!

Love 'em. That's why I spend HOURS at shows digging through the cheap boxes. Everyone (or I should say a majority of collectors) wants the big hit. I'd rather find that stuff and other odd ball rarities from the mid to late '90's and early '00's than drop a ton on something of Arod or Jeter

But that is just me ...

Congrats !!!

Just imagine Marlins, you will have this to look forward too in a year or two :^)

I have 3 little ones, so needless to say, I go to the shows/shops ALONE!!!
:^)

How much did they cost you?

I spent two hours going through a guy's 25c box. He ended up selling me the cards for 10c each and I spent $32... haha.

That's what I'm afraid of. I have patience to look at cards and that's about it. I spent two and a half hours at one guys set up at Nats this year and by the time I was done looking through about 15 3,200 ct boxes, I was dizzy, couldn't see straight and my knees were killing me because I barely moved ::facepalm:: :ugeek:

I like that Barry bonds/Thor......At least there is a correlation
Andruw got paired with the silver surfer...I don't see it :?


Great pickups BTW, especially the Zito /56. Great set and lots of set collectors.

It was $5. I not sure how much of an actual bargain it was, but compared to most of his prices it is. He has quarter boxes, but it is pretty much just base cards of minor stars and commons.
