Weekly Pickup Thread (3/12 - 3/18)...

[AK11]

Didn't see one for this week, so here we go:

The Marisnick is nice since there is no auto version to compete with it. As for the Longo, I bought one to replace the smeared one I got from Topps.

That is a really nice Longoria, congrats!!

Love the Jake Marisnik, but Had it valued in the $350 range. I personally thought $600 was WAY too high for that card. I hope it does well for you.

2 reasons figured into the buy it now I clicked. First, it's his first chrome and no auto chrome yet and he's arguably the best base chrome in the set. Second, there was 8 offers in the first 3 hours before I saw it and at least 3 were pending at the time. Sure, it's high risk, but I did not own a superfractor prospect card currently, so I felt the need for one in the pc. Sometimes we overpay on an impulse to buy things for the ever growing collection.

Could turn out to be steal, just never know. I like him as a prospect as well. All of your reasoning makes sense. But I would bet that most of those offers were under $300. Just my guess. THe bottom line is you got a great card of a very good prospect. I wish you luck brotha. Can you tell I am bitter that I wasn't able to work a deal before you hit the BIN?

2012 Topps Tribute Carlos Gonzalez Orange Autograph /25

Not much too show because it is a redemption

 

[Superfractor]

Doesn't mean much to anyone but me; '05 is my favorite BC design, plus a Rockie in the autograph checklist. I hope I can get that super one day. If anyone is the owner of the Topps Chrome superfractor on Photobucket, please let me know.

I picked up a HUGE card for me. Most I've ever spent on a card. I will post pic when it gets here.

 

[Tom Oates]

With these three 2001 Fabric of the game cards, I am down to two cards remaining to complete the set... Nomo and RUTH!

With these four, I am down to 14 cards left in this 200 cards set with one more inbound... the Munson is actually an upgrade over a plain gray jersey swatch. Couldn't resist for the price!

Very excited about this pickup. My first pickup for my man cave.

A very dirty ball, on the back says the game the ball was used in. Helton had 1 hit and scored 2 runs. Man cards used to be cool, and companies put effort into their products.

Any ideas on value?
