Morning all!

I just wanted to let you guys know before the media rush...

As an unemployed worker, or as I call it a FREE AGENT, I will be broadcasting tonite on CNN where I will decide to go. I will NOT be giving hints beforehand, so please don't ask. Tune in at 9:00-11 PM and your insatiable curiousity will be quenched.

It will be a VERY intense bidding war, I'm sure, and I do have T-Shirts printed up for my "hometown". They are $39.99 PP if you're interested. Also, look for the hidden message on my fingernail. It should be very exciting for all of you.

That is all. Thank you for your time!

I have a meeting from 9:00-12:00, then lunch, then games (bocce & horseshoes) outside until 3:00. Should be a pretty easy day.

Morning everybody. Predators comes out today, and if his past posts are any indication then Snyper is pumped. He probably already went to a midnight showing. Despicable Me comes out as well. Both have scores on Rotten Tomatoes that I would consider pretty dang decent.

Interesting...

Just got a card back from BGS marked "trimmed".

This was a redemption sent directly from upper deck to me, then to BGS.

Not sure to laugh, cry, be pist at upper deck or BGS.

All around confused I guess.

/poor me post

I did get a Stras orange set at BGS 9.5 that I picked up from a LCS at a great price

Despicable Me looks great. And since I've got 3 movie-age kids with Birthdays coming up, count me down $40 bucks. :lol:

Crazy. I suppose you could try to contact BGS and see what the deal is, but I kind of figure that since you had it in your possession before sending it to them then they won't hear any of it.

Congrats on the Stras. That should add a nice price bump

They aren't too sharp over there anyways. Send it back in with a bulk order from one of the volume graders. It'll come back with a 10 or some other sky-high grade. Their consistency day to day is awesome. :lol:

I am becoming dissapointed in BGS. I wanted to submit some more cards, but questioning it now. I like Red Refractors, and I think 3 of them have 9.5 potential, which make them look damn good.

I'm sure they can't look less 9.5 than the Stras Super.

Thought about sending them an email with a scan of the redemption card and a screen print of my redemption account. I guarantee they say" it was in your possession" so its probably a mute point.

Unless I have a gnome in my safe that trims cards.

Well you might want to set some gnome traps anyways, just in case. Getting a bad case of gnome infestation is the worst.

Kevin Burge lives in your safe...

Just spray some Thug-B-Gone in there, and you'll be okay.

Gnome traps are about as good of an investment as you can make nowadays.
