Good morning from sunny Scottsdale!

Our group is going to attend the Cubs/Dodgers game this afternoon at Camelback Ranch.

Looking forward to playing golf this weekend also, Alex!

I didn't break open the Patron last night, look out tonight.

Oh man, do I have a decision to make. Received quite the offer for my 98 Crusade prototype rainbow of Grace. I'd hate to sell it, but man, it would pay for my whole family's week long summer vacation. What to do, what to do.

Glad they got there safely Dan! I found the die cut while cleaning last week and figured you could use it

If it only pays for a vacation its not exactly life changing money.. the fact that you won't be able to replace them makes me say keep them or you'll regret it if you don't(only if you plan to continue to collect him like you currently do).

I am not sure how rich you are. But if I can sell something and it pays for a weeks vacation for MY family. That IS life changing money. There are items I know I won't have in my collection and I am OK with that. There are also items I would sell so that my family could go on a weeks vacation. You might not be able to get the cards back, but you will definitely not get that time spent back if you never have that time. And personally that is worth more than any piece of cardboard.

Good Morning Gents! Got a big box of casebreak stuff from Andrew (AIC) to open up. Looking forward to the NT stuff :)

Brad - My thoughts for the Crusade sell/not sell...This vacation you are talking about, is this something that was already planned and budgeted for? If so, I would keep the set. If not, then I say part with it knowing it is going to an equal home and plan on something memorable with the family :)

Gotta sell man! That's a pretty cool deal! If I had something I could sell to take care of the honeymoon I have planned for next month in the Bahamas then I would sell without second guessing it. The way I am I'd probably make something out of scans of them and put it on my wall saying, "I had this once". Haha

Definately not rich.. but if we are doing a family vacation it will already be budgeted for so I don't have to mortgage any of my posessions to pay for it. As a hardcore player collector I'd hate to see someone sell something they know they won't ever get back and then regret it after. If your good with selling your rarest items in your PC then you should have no problem just selling off the rest of it... I've thought about selling my collection many times but I just can't bring myself to do it.. and there would be no better time than now because his cards are getting the most money they have in a very long time. This is why I watch what I buy for my collection and factor that budget along with everything else in my house.. that way its not taking away from family stuff.
