Seriously considering selling my Yadi RC's to fund some bigger vintage purchases....thoughts?

Tough call. Seems like his market peaked during the season last year. If he comes out the gate hot this year, I'd probably say go for it.

The real decision is whether Yadi or vintage means more to you now and in the long run...

How did you crack it without damaging it?I have some slabs I want to crack.

Here's a video of me busting a PSA slab. BGS ones are A LOT harder to get apart:

Hope that helps. It's pretty easy.

Sad sad day for all Cardinal fans. Truly was the best man to ever play the game. RIP Stan

Went to Cardinals Winter Warm Up today and Stan the Man Inc is always there and they had signed 8x10's for $75 today almost pulled the trigger but didn't I wonder what they will be tomorrow.

Bought Trevor Rosenthal's Locker Name Plate to get signed tomorrow.

She doesn't know that I know yet, so if you're on my FaceBook, don't say anything.


I have the best mother-in-law.

Here's my tribute to Stan the Man. I've got a sweet patch auto on the way that I will post when it shows up. Have another dozen autos at BGS right now too. I have a feeling finding the last few Heritage cards I need of him is going to be a hard battle...

It still hasn't really sunk in that he'll never take a lap around Busch again. I read today that his last trip there was for Game 4 of the NLCS, which I was at. I get goose bumps just thinking about the way the crowd went wild when he came out. Baseball lost a true great

I got today
(3) Descalso 16x20
(2) Descalso 8x10
(1) Descalso Ticket Stub from NLDS Game 5
Bought a Brandon Dickson Game Issued/Used? Jersey from the Cardinals Care store
A Daniel Descalso Game Used Bat from Oct 8, 2012 (NLDS GAME 2) which I have already photomatched to 3 games (2 Playoff). He got an RBI Single with it in Game 2 of the NLDS.
Pics to come later

Here are my spoils from Saturday. I bought the musial print before I knew of his passing

Allen Craig's GU jersey from his rehab stint in 2011

And I got my bat signed, was a great time.

 

[PujolsCollector]

Is that one of the Michael's craft store bat cases? If so those are great huh lol

Sent from my ADR6350 using Freedom Card Board mobile app

 

[Krangry]

Im not sure where its from to be honest. My parents got it for me and the wife for Christmas. Oh and the Musial print is 29x39. Its huge. I love it.

 

[Wainwright]

I saw those Musial prints and almost bought one myself on Saturday. Only $80 but I don't have wall space for something that big.

Got this one in the mail today:
