Maybe to finish a set, obtain a highly sought after card, etc, etc?

I would like to be 100% on the Pete Rose Master Player set with a rating of 8 or higher, and above 35% on the 1967 set with a rating at 7 or higher.

I would also like to be at 50% or above in savings toward a nice 1952 Topps Mantle PSA 5.

    My resolution is to stop buying stuff I have no use for... you know? Time after time... I find myself picking up stuff that I have no use for just because it is really cheap... like... a psa 10 jason williams fleer brilliants rookie for $2.99~ or a psa 8 1987 donruss ripken for twenty five cents~
    This year... no matter how cheap it is... I shall resist all temptations to bid on and win stuff I really don't want. I merely want to stay focused on my goals~

    My resolution is to concentrate on my registry sets and quit expanding my horizons and spreading myself thin.

    1) Try to finish my 1969 set in PSA 8 or better.
    2) Start grading out my 1968 set.
    3) Try to find a nice high grade 1967 set (later in the year).
    4) Find as many PSA 9 quality raw cards as humanly possible. image

    I'm not going to buy any more cards next year.

    I'm not going to buy any fewer cards, but I'm not going to buy any more cards. image

    No such details will spoil my plans...

    1) try and finish one of the sets I'm working on so I can finally register a set. As you can tell, I'm a little anal in thinking a "set registry" should only include "sets".

    2) get a PSA 10 from one of my own submissions.

    3) belly up to a gaming table of some sort with Zardoz.

    1) Get a 54 Wilson Franks Ray Jablonski in a PSA 5 or 6. (I'm not holding my breath)

    2) No more bidding on cards after 3 or more drinks.


    3) For other people = No more ebay auction headings such as " Husband needs blood tranfusion! Must sell cards!" (wouldn't you have more important matters on your hands?)

    4) Let my SCD subscription run out.

    5) Break 40 on nine holes!

    Have fun tonight!

    1. Win the lottery.
    2. Finish every baseball set ever made in PSA 9 or better. image

    Obviously #1 will have to occur before I begin to tackle #2.

    Happy New Year everyone.

    1. Get to the national.
    2.Leave there with more than $10 in my pocket.
    3.Finish my 56 set and crack the top 5 on the registry.
    4.Become good friends with virtualizard just in case he DOES win the lottery.(Maybe he has an inside track)
    5.Make just 1 major baseball card find in some forgotten 75 year old attic.( I might finally be able to say"I've got ten of those"about something older than 1980.)


    Have a safe and happy new year,

    Vic
    Please be kind to me. Even though I'm now a former postal employee, I'm still capable of snapping at any time.

    7) Hypnotize Murcerfan into trading his Jablonski for an ex/mt stash of 1981 topps commons. Wait...........I'll throw in my coveted Lawrence Welk VHS rerun set I inherited from my dad.

    To finish my 70 and 71 Topps baseball sets, and have a good year in business to be able to afford finishing 71. And to get to over75% on 53 Bowman Color, which means having even a better year in business
    Collector of baseball PSA sets from the 1970's & hockey rookie cards; big New York Rangers fan (particularly now that they are sleeping with the enemy with Holik and Kaspiritus). Also starting to collect 53 Bowman Color as I think they are the most beautiful cards I have seen.
