FCB College Team Collector Group July Thread #1

[Card Magnet]

deceptikon1978 - Can't wait till August. I'm kind of shopping for you yet, but I'm 80% sure I've found what I want to pick up.

Joey - It does suck. I should try scanning things in lots and then just cropping out each image, but I think that would be the same amount of time if not more. If I could just hit the "Scan" button on the scanner and let it do it's own thing, that would be great - but it never seems to pick up exactly where the card is, and either gives me too much or too little.

Scans are done, and have been for a little bit. I decided to throw together something on my website to show them off as well, and maybe get people interested if somebody stumbles on who isn't a member here, or even if they are a member but didn't really know about the group.

Have to say i never saw a Paradigm card like that in person. They are pretty sweet considering the set was a huge bust. Hope you enjoy them.

Enjoyed everything. I too have never seen a Paradigm in person until then. It looks amazing. I think I acted like a little kid on Christmas when I saw that one :lol: . I like the marker they used for the on-patch auto. It doesn't have any bleed marks, as well as clear and bold.

Here's the main page for the college group on my site. Any opinions/comments/suggestions for it?

Finally, I am done with scans, and here they are. I only posted the autos and memorabilia cards here. Please have a look at the showoff page on my site to see the complete package Joey sent me. Again Joey, a big thanks. The cards are much appreciated.

[deceptikon1978]

Sure lets slim down the break too...

How about 1 box of magic and 1 box of Press pass Legends

If we can get 8 people or 8 slots taken. It will be $28 a slot.

I have these who have previously signed up:

1. Ryo1549 (Texas Tech) (49ers)
2. JoeyV (LSU) (Jets)
3. Deceptikon1978 (Notre Dame) (Steelers)
4. mikekarlovec (Ohio State) (Browns)
5. Tcardcollector (Longhorns) (Packers)
6. Scalpem (FSU) (Cowboys)

 

[Scalpem96]

If nobody objects - I would take a 2nd slot with USC

Sweet! Thanks in advance! I don't really collect the packers as a team (my first choice would have been the Steelers, as they some of my fav. players = Mendenhall, Sweed, Santonio Holmes). From the Packers I collect Brandon Jackson, Jermichael Finley (Texas), and I also like Greg Jennings.

Thanks again and I look forward to making up a package for ya! Who are your top 3-4 favorite players?

 

[deceptikon1978]

Nate that break sounds good but not real crazy about doing anymore Magic. I would be in for it but would rather just do 2 Legends.

2 legends would cost more. about $7 more per slot.

Can do Press Pass SE instead for 3.50 more per slot.

 

[Ryo1549]

How about 1 box of Press pass SE and 1 box of Press pass Legends

If we can get 8 people or 8 slots taken. It will be $31.50 a slot.

5. Tcardcollector (Longhorns) (Packers)
6. Scalpem (FSU) (Cowboys)
7. Scalpem (USC) (TBD)

 

[deceptikon1978]

See what everyone else thinks. I'm cool with whatever.

 

[trcardcollector]

Cool with me. Nate, where do you buy the boxes?
