I sent this out in early November, which in TTM terms isn’t even that long ago. That didn’t stop me from forgetting that I sent it. I actually sort of love when stuff like that happens. It’s like when you’re at the bar, and you load up the juke box with a bunch of awesome [...]
A while back, I had busted up a pack or two of T206 (I know it’s officially known as just 206, but I will continue to call it T206). In said packs, I had received a Dodger or two. A certain Owl who apparently only comes out at night had contacted me about the availability [...]
This trade comes to us from Captain Canuck in the far North. I sent him some ’09 Ginter needs, and he was supposed to do the same. As you’ll see, he did that and a bit more. What was supposed to be in the trade were these Ginters: #50 Pat Neshek #159 Denard Span #170 [...]
About a week and a half ago, I had finally gotten around to sending out my very first through the mail autograph request to the gentleman pictured in the card below. Yesterday, as I was sifting through the bills and junk mail, I stopped at an envelope addressed to me, written in my own hand [...]
I make a few trades every now and again on a website called Sports Card Fun, which is basically a forum where people post cards that they’re looking to trade or get, and you work out whatever deals. I never really work out anything ground breaking, mostly just set building. Because of this, a lot [...]
Again, just trying to play catch up. This edition brought to you by Night Owl. #65 Dexter Fowler RC – See kids, this is why you should regularly update your trade pages. #77 Francisco Liriano #89 Elvis Andrus RC – See comment about Dexter Fowler. #94 Paul Maholm #97 Art Pennington – I know this [...]
My apologies to Nachos Grande for not getting this stuff up sooner. Anyway, a while back he and I worked out one of those trades that doesn’t necessarily make for sexy blogging, but is what collections are built upon. No big hits here. No autographed, serial numberd, triple relic rookie cards of Hall of Famers. [...]
The good people over at Card Cache are giving away a gaggle of Ginters. Take a look.
Last Ginter pack. Go. Pack #3: 2009 Allen & Ginter #69 James Loney – You know what I like about the Dodgers? That the number on the front of their uniform is red. That’s called a pop color. #137 Mark Teixiera – Although I’m not a fan of the Evil Empire, this is a pretty [...]
Let’s keep it moving, people. Go. Pack #2: 2009 Allen & Ginter #167 Jim Thome – This dudes career numbers are incredible. For some reason though, I always forget he exists. The Forgettable Super-Star. #75 David Wright – I was watching the Mets pre-game yesterday, and they were talking to D. Wright about the beaning [...]
