Official Felix Hernandez Collectors Thread...HUGE Update pg8

[bradical]

Re: Official Felix Hernandez Collectors Thread...

Welcome to the club, bradical! Very nice centering on that chrome auto!

Thanks. It may go in for some grading in the near future. I need to see if the surface can be cleaned up a little. Scan looks all smugged up.

Re: Official Felix Hernandez Collectors Thread...

So who ended up with this from ebay:

and how much did you end up getting it for from him? I'm glad it got to a true collector eventually!

Re: Official Felix Hernandez Collectors Thread...

Phil - SWEET completion on the UD Premier autos!!! The quad looks VERY nice.

Bradical - Nice little PC...I agree with Phil too, the centering is a huge plus on that. There are quite a few off centered ones, especially the refractored ones :?

Brouthercard - Not too sure who got it off ebay. It has been at a local show at a dealers table for the past half year. I was finally able to pick it up last weekend

GREAT! I remember it sold for an incredibly low in my opinion of about $100.

Wow, how is that possible? Certainly, I got a Plate auto1/1 for $67 from the same product. Ebay is crazy.

Seriously. It must of been around 2007 or 2008 when 1/1's were being FLOODED into the market. I can almost guarantee this card would go around the $300+ range with all things considered of the King domintating his ways :mrgreen:

Re: Official Felix Hernandez Collectors Thread...

What do you guys think is a fair price on an '09 Sweet Spot Bat /5 (ash bat, blue ink) I say bat liberally, because SS '09 seems to be more of a "miscut slab of wood that probably should've been in last year's product"

I think it depends on how the auto looks. I'm not too sure but the black ones with the "glowing" autos go between $65-$90 /5. I've seen a few even higher, but that was when Sweet Spot first launched.

Thanks! It's a pretty damn mediocre auto -- not awful, not great. The pen looks hungup in a couple spots, which makes sense if you're signing wood that's not perfectly smooth.

Re: Official Felix Hernandez Collectors Thread...

i'm new to this board but was brought over my MAGICPAPA a few days ago. have a ton listed on beckett and have been there 7 years. Been looking for a felix auto for a while now and was wondering if anyone's interested in a trade? if so pls send me a message, thanks! and GREAT CARDS on this thread!

 

[King_Felix_4_CY]

Re: Official Felix Hernandez Collectors Thread...

The 09 Sweet spot was elling really really well when it first came out, but now the prices or more reasonable. That Sweet spot/ 5 would be like Alex said, $60-$80 maybe less if you listed it at a stupid time.

Anyone see the new MLB 2k10 commercial with Felix in it?

Welcome to the thread everyone!

Re: Official Felix Hernandez Collectors Thread...

Alright...just updated the sig :mrgreen: Was also dinking around with my camera and decided to take a pic of the Felix 1/1 to try and get the "PURE" embossed logo and the 1/1 stamp to show better. Here is what turned out:

 

[King_Felix_4_CY]

Re: Official Felix Hernandez Collectors Thread...

That Pure White 1/1 is so awesome. I never get tired of looking at it, even if its through a computer for now.
Meanwhile, while today was MLK day in the USA, it was mailday for me here in Canada. Got a few Felix's, 3 new additions to the Upper Deck Premier PC within a PC, lol

07 Premier Insignias

08 Base Parallel Auto

08 AKA Signatures



All sick. Also got a couple non-numbered Jerseys, 06 Fleer and 09 UD Icons, but they aren't "Post Worthy"

 

[metallicalex777]

Re: Official Felix Hernandez Collectors Thread...

Wow Phil...nice additions. I especially like the horizontal Insignia Signatures one

 

[King_Felix_4_CY]

KING MAIL

I am going to start calling some of my posts "KING MAIL" when I add scans of new pick-ups. So.....


KING MAIL


07 UD Black Pride of a Nation 44 of 75

Looks very nice alongside his ancestor:

UD Black Pride of a Nation Printing Plate 1 of 1


More KING MAIL to come as early as tomorrow

Re: Official Felix Hernandez Collectors Thread...

Alright...Phil and I just made a HUGE trade that we will both be posting in the next couple weeks :shock: To keep the thread up I thought I would show off some of my current favorites...I hope a few of you guys would also do the same :mrgreen:

These 2 are my top 2 current favorites:

These 2 are up at the top...the UD Black because of the marbled framing and the Masterpieces because of the oncard canvas touch:

This one because you can see all the way through the card:

And these 2 for their penmanship:

Some of my favorite non-auto'd GU:

My first Felix 1/1 GU gifted by my buddy Nate (thanks again Nate!!!):

And to finish it off...my favorite non-auto'd non-GU'd cards:

An AWESOME 1/1 sketch done by fellow FCB member WoundedDuck...talk about talent!!!

Gold Refractor /50:

Nice look...especially the red frame:

A MUCH CHERISHED gift from Bigfan5...will never forget that, thanks again Greg!!!

Now enough about my stuff...lets see some of yours!!!
