Josh Johnson thread (11/10 update: '06 Ultimate Quad auto & '10 TTT Booklet auto)

[AmishDave]

daaaaang, nice Dave!

that gold chrome refractor looks nice, IIRC that year had some very O/C cards...

Thank ya kindly. For just a nickel & penny north of $10, I thought it was a good price, considering what I've paid for my other 8 or so copies. Here's another dozen or so cards / items that I've picked up the past month that I forgot to take pics of.



Freebie here on FCB. Thank you again !!!



Orange Refractor, not numbered



Green Refractor, not numbered



#'d/27



#'d/75



#'d/50



#'d/25



#'d/35



First Oyo. Finally came down to under $8 shipped for 'em.



#'d/25. I have one already, but it was without the bordering around it.



#'d/25. Knew I was going to pay more for this than I wanted to, because a member on BO is going after the set. Go big or go home.



#'d/1



#'d/1. Topps Mini Plate, for $13 dlvd ? All day.

 

[AmishDave]

One today and then two that I didn't have pics of in the PB yet:



#'d/35, in today, 5th copy, I think




#'d/5. 2nd copy. Got this back in August I think.




Ice #'d/1. Got this back in August too. Goes well with the Red 1/1. Just need to find the Super.

Awesome new cards

Thank you kind sage. A couple in today. The Chrome was a toss in.



Woefully OC. Toss-in with the card directly below. #'d/1952




#'d/25.




#'d/10, only Gold I've seen up. Had to BIN this, thinking there won't be a ton of the product broken.

 

[Brewer Andy]

Love Prizm Golds. Most excellent pick up

 

[AmishDave]

Thanks Andy ! Was digging in the JJ boxes the other night and found this. Forgot I had it and didn't have a pic up for it yet. I have more to take pics of, but that'll come later today or tomorrow:

So when are you going to interview yourself for the collector segment

Also a question, if you could start all over would you still pick up as many duplicates of cards, or would you focus more on uniques?

First question, probably never.

Second question, no. I'd still pick up all copies. There's only been a few times where I've dropped like $80 on a card that I have, only to have a 1/1 booklet or something pop. Sure, it'd be great to get those into the collection, but I'm not splitting hairs over it. I know over on BO, one member is pissy because I've got two copies of the 2011 Bowman Platinum Red Refractor autograph #'d/10 and won't give one up (for a set I think he's going after). He's had told me, "Well, I'll give you $25 since that's about all it's worth". Of course, that went over as well as a wet fart in church with me. I just said, "It'll be in my collection then, since I have no intention of letting it go, but especially not $25." He got pissy, like a rich spoiled kid who didn't get his way.

The one regret would be not selling doubles in April of 2011. Base Topps Chrome were hitting $25 regularly (I'm sitting on about 50 of 'em).

Always nice to add a super to the mix. Any word if JJ can get back into the mix? Would love to see him regain some of his form, he is still only 30 years old.

I think it's my third super. And, if he comes back, I hope it's as a reliever. He just doesn't have the mustard to start anymore. Hopefully he isn't done, as I'd like to just once see him pitch in person, live.

I think the Blue Jays over paid for him at the time but I think someone will take a flier on him at a reasonable price.
