What are the measurements? I'll be using them too. Their work is amazing in person and yours looks great too!

Well if I can ever get word from Walt where to send my King of Kings poster, have room for it, my 3 bats and the M&N jersey to fit on the wall behind my TV.

I can't find my box of cards that has my Pinnacle Museums and AP's other Press Proofs and such. I think I'm psyching myself out over it. This is why I want everything in 1 or 2 5000ct box with toploaders or one-screws. FU¢K!

Of the top of my head all I can remember is Pinnacle Museums and Artist's Proofs from 95-97, Donruss Collections and Prized. Not too worried about the holograms except the SilverStar prototype. Maybe I'll look again tomorrow or this weekend.

Oh, and I had to buy the card for my collection of course:

Hey guys,

Not sure if any of you saw the 2001 Topps Employee on Ebay last night, I sent the seller a message and made him an offer which he accepted. I paid Paypal as a gift as he requested. Today without any notice, I have a refund in my inbox, with the explanation that I put a comment in the Gift message and they charged him the fees. (BS). My refund was for the total plus the fees. Challenged him on it, and now he's playing the "I'll relist it on Ebay". Sellers remorse. Not sure if any of you guys offered on it, but I'm just putting it out there. Seller ID [h=1]poloboyclh4et7

Not cool in my book at all....

 

[rickey939]

What is the 2001 Topps Employee card worth?

 

[magicpapa]

did you use a CC for the gift payment?

 

[rickeyfanatic]

Yes I did Papa

 

[magicpapa]

I'm pretty sure if it isnt paypal account or bank monies for gift there is a charge

 

[rickeyfanatic]

I have sent before same way, shows me paying the fee, never had a complaint?

A couple of quick ones while I have a moment:

#1) I'm sure you all know this (I'm usually the last to see), but since no one shared yet, maybe there's one out there who hasn't. Leaf is selling this direct via ebay. There are apparently 70 made (according to them). Its the base card of that leaping Rickey near 2nd base that I've seen a ton of autos for. The card is reasonably priced (I thought) at $4.99. Some still available. <ebay>230929751453</ebay>

#2) I was doing some basic research...and doesn't anyone find it odd that there seem to be so many Rickey swatch and memorabilia cards of Dodgers, Angels, and Blue Jays uniforms? He only played 30 games, 32 games, and 44 games respectively for each. Did he change jerseys every half-inning and sell 9 at the end of each game? It just seems strange to me.

#3) That Adam Eaton thing is funny. The lost museums, APs, etc is not funny. Hopefully you find them soon. The BS pulled by the Topps Employee card is BS too. REVOLT!

Go Phillies in 2013!
