April Pickups - let's see some eye candy!!

Stone193 · April 5, 2019 1:06PM

Thanx Chris.

I put up a general wow to everyone up north of this thread.

But, I have to say - the Fingers card is scary good! I might have that in a 7?

That card looks like an 11!

krisd3279 · April 5, 2019 1:24PM

Haha I picked up the Phillies ones a few days ago!

Don't let @Aspie_Rocco see that:)

Love the 1970 basketball! Just got these! Will be going out for grading first thing Monday!
Tallboy cards need to make a comeback! 😁

I bought an 84 OPC baseball box from him and snagged the wrist bands as part of the deal.

I strongly considered that 84 box @ $50...congrats! You gonna open it?

Mphilking · April 5, 2019 3:30PM

Probably Overpaid, but I don't think there are very many of these(249).

This box I am definitely opening. The previous box I got is staying intact. That's the one with Mattingly on back. This most recent one I got for $45. It's cheap enough to rip. I have started to hoard 84 OPC baseball boxes.

BunchOBull · April 5, 2019 8:40PM

After being drafted 7th overall in '89, Frank reported to the Sarasota White Sox. This is the first item I've ever found signed during his two month stint in the Florida State League. Also the first signature inscribed number "30" I've found as well.

I love pack pulled RC’s!

UFFDAH · April 6, 2019 7:27AM

@RookieHOFers - Thank's Matt. I've got a Low Series case and had BBCE wrap the boxes. I've sold some boxes through PWCC. I opened a few boxes for fun too. The remaining boxes I will likely hold a bit.

Pop 2. Very hard to find gem due to surface scratching.

Another Gibson.

A first ballot Hall Of Fame player.

Rofles · April 6, 2019 7:12PM

Picked this up today, pretty thrilled! My 1970 BKB tallbo set is coming along nicely as well! I’ll share them in a sec 🙂

dont see too many of those. they added them to the nba hof rc set as requirements, so i have looked.

I am currently working on Top 20 WNBA players set. I have 8 now.

The GOAT women's basketball player in my opinion. I don't generally collect WNBA cards, but I may have to find one of these and maybe a Sue Bird RC.

Yes a lot of folks consider her the GOAT. That rookie card is a great one to get. Sue Bird also a good one to get.

Been a very slow last month for me. You know your in a dry spell when you still have all your eBay bucks sitting a week into the month. Grabbed this card last month but finally got around to scanning it today. It's not eye candy but it certainly looks better in hand than the technical grade. Centering on this card because of its location on the top row of the sheet is horrible and while this one isn't perfect, I always keep an eye out for nicely centered copies. The bottom right corner is the main culprit here.

I edited your post - great card regardless of the number just like all your posts. What a nice card collection you must have; and that’s just on what I’ve seen you post in 2 years....

Snagged this 2008 Topps Heritage Frank Robinson for quite a steal.

I was also really happy to land the 2001 Upper Deck Legends of New York Yogi Berra jersey auto. The 2001 UD Vintage Mantle/Maris/Richardson jersey has been on the wantlist since 2001.

Whoa! Thanks a lot, you just caused me to fall out of my chair! I am drooling, especially about that Frank Robinson hand numbered!

Aspie_Rocco · April 8, 2019 6:06AM

Pulled these from packs with selection help from my daughter

fattymacs · April 8, 2019 6:36AM

Got this one, leaving just one more to complete the 25 card set

rmh111985 · April 8, 2019 8:13AM

Why buy 1 when you can get 8? These will most likely go in with the next bulk sub I can get into.

stwainfan · April 8, 2019 12:38PM

For the Jordan collection.

Nice Everett! He was a key piece to the cowboys dominant d in the early 90s

PSA mail day! Thanks to @wadevl for this sub, some big disappointments but here are the highlights of my 30 cards:

stevegarveyfan · April 8, 2019 9:28PM

Picked this up at a card show in Plano, TX. I think it'll be good for at least an 8, maybe a bit higher if I'm lucky.

LOTSOS · April 8, 2019 9:58PM

@rmh111985

Love that Roy Chrome. Centering looks near perfect. Beautiful card!

I thought for sure it was getting a 10, my other one also came back a 9 with 65/35 centering left to right. I must've missed a tiny surface blemish somewhere on this one.

LGC · April 9, 2019 9:09AM

Shoulder patch logo and auto.

I think I remember this card. Sat in my collection until I upgraded. These cards are crazy tough.with centering. I also buy raw, centered copies and submit them. This one is too far out of my range centered with a high technical grade.

Just got a notice of a Pop that includes a PSA 8 1974 OPC Denis Potvin. Those 74 OPC cards are a bear, too. Topps seem to be cut with a laser level.

UFFDAH · April 9, 2019 11:56AM

Great cards being shared by everyone!!

Here is a Ryan "Blue Ink" bought raw and back from grading.
