Nice! There was a Eric Staal from that same set that ended tonight.....Patch on it was absolutely sick, thought you might have went after that one too.

 

[pghbuccos]

This August has been a complete failure for pickups. When I get a debit card and full access to my bank account it's supposed to help me, no?

Well no is correct. My lone pickup is an 06/07 BAP Mike Green auto /10.

But I've missed out on these.

(4) Kenndal McArdle Cup auto/patches. 2 I bid on this afternoon with wicked patches, lost both. There were 2 more ending and I just forgot about them.

(2) Tyler Sloan Cup PLATES. The first one me and another dude got into a bidding war so I figured I'd do a manual snipe. Well it went almost double what I thought it would go for and this other dude came outta nowhere and won it (I believe the guy that has taken all the Mike Green 1/1's to thus point.. my rival.) So the 2nd one ends tonight, and I had $15 on it and and figured ya know what... even tho he's my 2nd rated PC, I'll let it go if it goes higher than $25 because I'll get sniped again (knowing my rivals routines and bidding habbits). Well I forgot to check on it and totally missed out AND THE OTHER GUY DIDN'T BID AND IT ENDED AT $16. ::facepalm::

Oh well, tomorrows another day.

Pretty weak patch, but for less than 10 dlvd, can't complain too much.

My Carter additions for the months so far:

These first are all multiples. I just like lots of copies:

And these are new ones for the collection:

Hopefully a few more sneak in by month's end.

 

[gonzagacubs]

very nice Carter's

True that, but they're still more than fair game in a completeist's book.
