Yeah, no point in getting angry though ya know? A lot of it can be replaced.

I will say that I was surprised at how well Chrome and Finest and various other 90s inserts withstood the spill.

Stunned that SMU didn't make the NCAA tourney.

So I just went through my Sold/Traded folder in my bucket, and I've come to realize that I've had some decent names within the past year. Here's a small example of what I had in the folder.

I apologize if some of the images are huge! If they are too big, you can ask and I'll delete them

Dan if I remember correctly about 75 cards. Plus sleeves and cases. Some were junk gu and autos but a very conservative below eBay sale price of 2-300. Couple griffey buyback autos, some glove and jersey patch cards of bigger names. Couple hof autos I had dupes of at the time.. All with a nice yellow tinge and odor to them :)

I don't know yet what the total loss will be, but that sounds about right at this point.

Good afternoon Men.

Quick question, as a buyer, do you find it a pain in the arse to look at a scan of 6 cards to find the card that is being described in the auction? Are you more apt to skip auctions set up like that and bid on an auction that has one picture? As a seller, I am just trying to gauge what the buyers like. When I buy, it doesn't make a difference to me as long as the title and description are clear and I can see the card in the scan.

Thoughts?

I wish the picture was of the card in the auction only but it does not affect my likely hood to bid on the auction

I collect promos, but I think you're talking about @BBCgalaxee

Any chance either of you or anyone else has a 1998 Donruss Collections Sample? Card is number 118. If you do, and looking to sell, I'm interested. Would like to know more about them too. Were all players made, how many? I've seen a picture of a Rickey sample, but don't know anyone that has one.

I don't have it, but you may want to ask around. My promo collection isn't that vast, but that doesn't. Mean that there isn't one somewhere on the boards.

Ouch.. Stings a little but not much to be done except not beat yourself up about it.
Trip to the animal shelter today was a quick one. Typically 3-5 dogs and as many as 30 cats. Only had 8 cats in there today. All older, Pretty surprised. Some petting and scratching, a finger chewed on. Kids wanted a black one that was most vocal and energetic
