That Crosby art card is very nice Dave, i knew that was part of the Heroes but have seen it before. Do u have any of the Crosby heroes? I have a couple dubs i could help ya out with.

Bilko I do not have any of them yet. I was going to go after the set a couple of months ago and completely forgot about it until this week. there are a couple of full sets on eBay right now that I will go after but if I can't get one cheap I will let you know. as always thanks for the offer to help

First pickup for the Mike Green collection in like more then a month. I think this would qualify as a steal. I know it's a show stamped 1/1 but still.

I have multiple copies of the set minus the header and art cards. If you need any, I can send them your way.

[pghbuccos]

very nice patch Dave and a good price as well.

 

[mstng99tim]

I got this in the other day. These were selling for $100-200 a day after the game. I waited a few weeks and got mine for $40.

 

[pghbuccos]

good to see you got one Tim and glad you got it for a decent price.

 

[pghbuccos]

won the Crosby Heroes set for $8 dlvd. pretty happy with that price.

This is pretty cool looking. What's the story behind it, other than being from the Pens last regular season game at Mellon Arena?

Nice price on the set for sure. Can't go wrong with that at all!

Well done!

what do the auto's go for? and what are they numbered to?

 

[pghbuccos]

thanks guys.

the auto'ed painting card is numbered /87 as for how much they go for I haven't seen one listed in about a month but they usually end around $200.

Some more BGS excitement.

From worst to first:

Ryan Getzlaf Young Gun 8.5 - I got a 7.5 rating in Edges. For one I don't know how I would have missed this on my inspection, and secondly I can't see any issues in the slab. Is it possible BGS made a mistake and meant 9.5 instead of 7.5?

Some fine 9's: Matt Duchene and Bobby Ryan Young Guns. Was hoping Duchene would get a 9.5, but looks like I missed the corners on the back of the card. Clearly was graded correctly.

Next for the 9.5: John Tavares Young Gun. I'm curious to see what his prices will be like next year.

And finally, my first of hopefully many (LOL) Pristine 10's: Antti Niemi Young Gun. Should the Blackhawks make the Cup, I think I could move it for a solid price. As of today, the only 10 in the Population report

 

[pghbuccos]

nice grades Adam especially the 10 on the Niemi .

as for the Getzlaf I guess it's possible they could have typed in the wrong number and it wouldn't hurt to resubmit it.

thanks Dave!

I really don't see them making a mistake and am
embarrased if I didn't notice it...can't win . Either way I'm going to crack it out. Anyone know if that an easy process?

Good luck to your pens tomorrow. My workplace is littered with Habs fans...it's
nuts!
