St. Louis Cardinals Collectors Thread

[PujolsCollector]

Sounds like fun, might be challenging to locate some of those 07 triple threads cards

Im sure there will be some difficult ones. Do you have any Reyes cert autos. I will pay, just need to get prices in mind lol. I also decided that I am going to collect the relics of him also since there are only like 5 non signed relic cards. Im not sure if there was a 2007, 2006 World Series set but im sure I can figure it out on beckett. There are alot of Reyes cards on COMC so that will be where most of my money goes from now on. That and a smaller pc....... TBD.

Just got my package from Justcommons today. The highlights were:
12 Heritage Jaime Garcia Relic
12 Pro Debut Tilson Auto
12 Ginter Jay Relic
12 Update Holliday All Star Stitches
08 Documentary Chris Perez Auto
10 Bowman Draft USA Carson Kelly Relic/949
08 UD USA Swagerty Relic

Probably the best was:
11 Update Pete Kozma Silk 46/50-Was hoping he would keep up his clutch streak so I could flip it, but still a cool card.

I'll take a look when I get home...I think I have some extras, but they wouldn't be anything special..pretty sure I have a cosigners auto

I want to start collecting stuff outside of just Descalso kind of like you are doing. I need to start picking up some non descalso stuff.
IN other news I just got my Descalso Orange 19/25 from 2011 Bowman Chrome in the mail today.

 

[waintrain]

Wainwright and Descalso are the two I focus on, but I get pretty much any Cardinals if they are cheap. I also got these Descalso's that I somehow didn't already have:
07 Bowman Blue /399
11 Heritage Chrome /1962
12 Topps Base

The blue /399 is actually a tough card to get. It took me like 4 months to find. The toughest card I had to find was the Heritage Chrome /63 to be honest when that card came up last time I put a max bid of $125 dollars (would have WAYYY over spent) but I think I got it for around 10.00. There was no way I was losing that card.

 

[SINFULONE]

I'm not blaming it all on Kozma, but he sure wasn't helping. He's made multiple mistakes I'm each of the last three games.

Did he suck that bad in the field when you saw him in Springfield?

 

[SINFULONE]

I am going to start an Anthony Reyes cert auto player collection. ONLY CERT AUTOS AT THIS TIME. I think he is a fairly inexpensive guy and i added 3 autos of him from COMC awhile back. He has quite a few cert autos out and should be fun to collect. I also have a game used hat and locker name plate of him along with 3 signed baseballs. He was my favorite player while he was in STL so it makes sense.

Too bad he flamed out so quickly, thought he would turn into something.

 

[waintrain]

I think I was lucky to get the /62. I traded away a Topps Base Babe Ruth SP for it straight up. On Reyes, I have hardly anything of him, other than some base, and a Co-Signers Auto w/ Wainwright, and its in my PC.

Dave Duncan ruined Anthony Reyes. The way that Reyes pitched that worked for him was completly changed and he never made the transition. I blame Dave Duncan 100% for ruining Anthony Reyes carrer, then I am pretty sure Reyes Tommy John Surgery recovery went wrong and he is done for. Also I believe a friend of ours that works at Busch Stadium sister in law is married to him.

he was horrendous in the field, why I was so shocked with how he played when they called him up.

Reyes had more problems than the pitching coach that is famous for making average pitchers good.

Oh there is no doubt that he had horrible mechanics, but he was making it work at one point and was a fly ball pitcher, that is why I wanted to see him go to San Franscisco or the Padres. He could not get the ball down in the zone that often.

There is a 2006 WS jersey card. Other ones that I have/had that come to mind: 2009 Unique Jumbo Patch #/20 2009 Unique Button Auto #/6 Co-Signers auto w/ Waino

 

[PujolsCollector]

sounds like there are some extremly tough ones out there to be honest. It should be a long tough project! Hopefully these messege boards will help me out like they have with Descalso. I am 88/93 Descalso non 1/1 completion which is like 95%

All I've got is a Co-signers auto. Let me know of you need it

Yes, I need that 1. Price?
I had 3 Anthony Reyes autos in my COMC but apparently I sold one somehow. I guess I somehow accidentally listed that insted of my David Kopp auto that I have in there. Luckily I had only paid like 1.50 for it and i have 1.96 in my COMC account so im guessing it sold for 2 dollars.

Since this is a Cardinals thread, who's Tyler Rahmatulla? Haven't seen any good sources about him... Your thoughts?

Just got this 2012 Bowman Chrome Orange Refractor from Andrew's (AIC) 5 case break.
