Good Afternoon Gents! Nice busy day at work and am off in a few hours. I hope the sweltering heat is manageable for those of you with the extreme temps :shock: We are finally getting summer-ish weather here and have been in the high 60's to low 70's with a possible day or few in the 80's soon. Just made a few sales last night to fund what may be the best patch auto for my Felix PC as well

I think this years topps archives auto list is my favorite thus far.

I have three autos on my "gonna get, eventually" list from that product:

Joe Charboneau (want to upgrade my sticker auto of him)

Jimmy Wynn (one more for the Wynn collection)

and George Foster (SP, so a little more than I want to pay, but the 1978 design of his card is amazing!)

I take it people are not happy with the new UD offering.

From what I have seen it is just trash. Auto and a name?? Really? Why would anyone buy that?

But it is UD.

George - I'll pass.

I should have a pretty cool mailday coming up this week. Standby.

Found a truck today. They wanted $3.6k.

That's $3.6k more than I have

Money talk like that sounds like, well, me....

First day of the new job was interesting to say the least.

Got some great cards today.

First, another addition to my Nicknames auto collection:

Then the illustrious Ralph sent me three free Mike Trout rookie cards when he heard I had none of the hometown hero:

Regular, Chrome, and Refractor!!

Thanks a ton, Ralph! They have a new home here for sure!

Just about to read that thread, though the first three posts when it began gave me plenty enough to go off of....

Picked up a gravely mower with a flat near the end of the day. Came over to the best tire place in Calgary, they're getting me up and running within minutes of me pulling in.
Great service, and 1 less thing to do tomorrow.

Kudos to Ralph!

What's on the agenda this weekend Jesse? Feeling pretty optimistic about the Wild this season

Money talk like that sounds like, well, me....

I just have to figure out what I should sell, and how much I should sell it for.

Glad the work day is over. Now to spend the rest of my evening on ebay, and in a good book! Looking forward to Saturday, celebrating my birthday then, so that my brother could be there!

I finally got around to listening to the new Smashing Pumpkins album the other day and I'm very impressed. Can't stop listening to it now. They've been one of my favorite bands and one of the first rock bands I ever listened to. I'd kill to see them live one day.

I like mowers.

Ralph, very nice.
