egbert 216/250
i-rod 2 clr 69/99(get your heads out of the gutter )

No prob. I have the "base" with a silver background and I think the black does look much, much better.

I don't know where Colston was signing but it's the opposite of where Kranepool and others were signing!

Yup, she was on the computer when I was there! He's kinda cocky but has great prices on his boxes!

 

[jetsrule4]

the guy directly behind chuck, an older man like early 60's maybe, hands down the best prices on packs im talking 5 dollars per pack for contenders, elite extra was 4$ lcm 9$ all together he was great

I saw that. But, I'm really weary of opened boxes at shows...I'm not saying that he searches but the temptation is always there when you sell packs...I try to steer clear of buying packs at shows and stick to boxes and singles.

 

[jetsrule4]

yea but then again i only bought the contenders i saw him rip the wrapper of off
