Well the second half of the package finally arrived yesterday (Damn Parcel Post taking 9 Days!!!!) I couldn't be happier with what arrived. Some are also ebay pickups. Things will definetly slow down after this, just Topps A&G to finish and the Lettermen Set from Icons Already bought 3 of the 10.

:shock:

Wow, there's some really nice stuff there, Chad. I really look forward to seeing what you've got coming in from week to week.

plus one, and the super

The only thing more amazing than those cards are the prices. Those are some stellar cards, especially the Artifacts. If you think you're dissapointed with the Turkey Red Suede, just pick up an Allen and Ginter mini wood card and you'll be even more dissapointed.

How many 2004 DK cards of Chavez do you have to go along with the painting?

 

[chuckbartowski]

As always, your collection never ceases to amaze me...this has to be one of your best mail weeks ever

 

[wideright]

Great week of mail, Chad!! Congrats! Love the Artifacts, Sweet Spot and DK 1/1s! Amazing.

Next stop, Superfan in Beckett magazine!

If i recall correctly he has been there, done that, and got the t-shirt.

 

[bodiaz]

Wow, that is cool! They should do a part 2 with all of these additions!

 

[pghbuccos]

as always Chad those are some amazing additions.

I can't believe how cool that Artifacts card is and how cheap you got it for.

:shock: :shock: :shock:

Very nice stuff (agian). A little suprised that the artifacts 1/1 wasn't more then that. Also for the icons letterman set, does it include first and last name or just last?

George_Calfas: Thanks

TNP777: Thanks, things will definitely slow down from here on out but I'll keep on posting as long as people enjoy seeing the new pick ups

prozac4312: The seller gave me some really great prices on everything from this shipment and last weeks as well. For $500 I was able to get 2 Bat Barrel, Bat Knob, Artwork, Mirror Black Auto, Superfractor, Auto/Button, and 5-6 more 1/1's. I defintely feel I came out ahead.

miguelcabrera: Same as above.

mrwhitesox30: I thought the suede was just the base card with a 1/1 stamp, the border is a little fuzzy but man what a disappointment. The good thing about the Woods is that they are WAY over my price range for an insert 1/1 that I don't think I will ever have to worry about that disappointment. I have 11 of 41 (20 are 1/1's) from 2004.

chuckbartowski: Thank you, I agree these last two weeks probably trump any month or maybe 2 or 3 months of my collecting career.

wideright: Thanks, I like the Artifacts a lot more than I expected, I am now up to 6 of the 9 button cards Chavez has, the other 3 are 1/1's

bodiaz: I was featured, and would like to be featured again, especially if I get the cover

pghbuccos: Thanks, I definitely can not complain about the price. It probably would have only sold for $60-$80 max but still a good deal none the less

chippernate: It appears to have the first and last, I am just not sure how to differentiate the duplicate letters in his name 2 E's and 2 C's yet can't seem to find a difference, so the print run per letter is /45 so are there 90 E's and C's or just 45 of each?

 

[Big Mac McGwire]

great additions!

 

[predatorkj]
