    Nice card John,

    I really like the Chronology. So many great HOFers who never had certified autos were released in this set. I haven't picked any up yet, but hopefully sometime soon.

    Thanks, it was about time I got one of those. I only missed the last 10, lol. I sure hope these players don't sign another million times. I hope they move on to other HOFers, and not do the same ones over and over like they do with some.

    Yeah, you should definetly lock in some of these guys!

    There a couple other football things to pick up first, but then I will be completely focused on this set.

    Reese, how do I look at your Football set? Do you have a PSA set registry for that set? Any linky? image

    How many of these have you guys obtained personally (handing the person something to be signed then getting it back straight from them)? What's your best story?
  • Just added a couple more signatures...

    Moses Malone received in the mail today:

    image

    I hate sticker autos but the price was right.

    Dennis Johnson, jut purchased Buy it Now:

    image

    Figured I would pick one up while the prices are still relatively low, and he has a nice chance of making the Hall this year.
  • Hey Justin, nice looking cards, I recently purchased that same Johnson too, while its still cheap. I don't got a Malone yet, hope to add one at some point.

    To the new poster. I never got a card signed in person, that would be cool to do image

    Giovanni
  • Hey guys, I just made another video just in case you wanted to see it. Its a "normal" one this time, lol. I'm opening 2 packages of cards I got on ebay. Check it out if you would like image

    Giovanni
  • I recently broke a box of 2006 Topps trademark moves. Overall I was happy with the break since last years boxes are about 1/3 of this years.

    Got this Wilkins autograph which is my first from him.

    I have got some great autos in person. Living in Indy, I've been able to meet Reggie Miller, Jermaine O'neal, Ron Artest, Al Harrington, Brad Miller, Jamaal Tinsley, Jonathan Bender, Jeff Foster, Anthony Johnson, Fred Jones and a few other Pacers at local signings. The only other basketball player I've met was Dikembe Mutombo. Jermaine O'neal was probably the nicest guy I was able to meet. He signed a jersey, magazine, and hat for me.

    Some other great athletes I've been able to meet at shows are Muhammed Ali, Johnny Unitas, Gale Sayers, Willie Stargell, Ozzie Smith, Bill Willis, Leroy Kelley, Tony Dungy, Dwight Freeney, and the Indiana University team that made it to the Championship game a few years ago.

  • Justin,

    Nice auto! I remember the last time I tried to bid on his 2000 Legendary Signatures, I got outbit image He's a good auto to have.


    Reese,

    The only autograph I got signed in person was of Razor Ramon back in the mid 90's at a card show somewhere, can't remember where, but it was a big show, I know that.

    I remember there was Razor Ramon and Bam Bam Bigelow, you had a choice of either guy, so I picked Razor. I remember it was so funny, there was a line going outside for Razor and there was like 4 or 5 people waiting on line for Bam Bam image I felt bad for the guy, I almost wanted to go to his line just for the heck of it, but I stayed with Razor.

    The worst part about that day was loosing my autograph to a chick, lol. My best friends sister had a friend a friend with her, and she asked me if she could have my auto, so I said of course imageimage

    Other than that, I never had something signed in person, or at least I don't remember. I'll think a little harder and get back to you if I remember anything, lol.

    Giovanni
  • Reese3333Reese3333 Posts: 2,407 ✭✭
    Razor Ramon...LOL that brings back some good memories.

    I remember being about two feet away from one of the Nasty Boys at one of the shows I was at. He seemed pretty cool.

    I tthink I saw the same auction. I scooped mine up on a buy it now at $25, which I thought was decent.
  • Couple of new additions...

    John Havlicek Retro. He has one of the nicer signatures out there....

    image

    Also picked up the Billy Cunningham for $2.00 plus shipping. It looks very comparable to my certified version, and the price was right even if I got ripped off. Kind of tough to see since it was signed in Blue pen on a dark background.


    image

    Certified for comparison...

    WOW Is that how much DJ is going for now?
    I think last month I was seeing them go for around $10-15
    I would think that with patience you might be able to get one for around that price

  • Reese,

    Since you bid $32 for the Dennis Johnson auto and you got outbid, why don't you check out these 3 cards I found for you:

    1. $22.00

    2. $25.00

    3. $29.99

    Check them out, you might want to pick one up while its still cheap, and I figured since you put a $32 bid, you wouldn't mind those 3 prices.


    Mexisar,

    So, is that Dennis Johnson 03-04 Legends Championship Numbers for sale or trade, or trade and cash? I have a few cards that you might be interestead if you would like to trade and cash, or whatever. Please let me know either way.

    Also, what does your collection look like? I love to look at peoples collections, and seeing that great card you got there, i'm sure you got more great cards, and it would be nice to see them.

    Are you considering joining the PSA set registry for this HOF autos set? It sure would be nice to see some great cards that you got image

    I think theres 2 or 3 guys here thats about to join, hopefully you can too!

    I am collecting the Championship Numbers set so I need the Dennis Johnson, I saw one for sale last year, it went for around $1700, who knows how much the winner was willing to pay since they are also collecting the championship numbers and the DJ is the SP of the set #/3


    Probably in the future I will join the HOF Autos Registry, I do have some that I have bought graded that I could add, just need the time...

    Yup probably my greatest buy.
    The bidder eileen280 that paid around 7000 for a press pass auto of maravich , is the person who won the Johnson, I would not be surprise if that bidder had a bid of 5000 or higher.

    Hey, DJ has the lowest, then Walton at 5, after that Russell and Erving with 6
    That is why the DJ went for so much.
    The Elvin Hayes has 11, but I have only seen one, another collector(the person that sold the DJ for 1700) that used to collect the set, plus a bunch of doubles, didn't even have Hayes.
    I have been collecting the set since it came out in June 2004
    I need 2 more, I had a deal for one that I needed, paid and everything, but seller did not send, a week later refunded me, cuz he had now sold it to someone else for more $$$.
    I was dissapointed, but then I was able to get the DJ, so hopefully I can complete it.image

    I think this is the most replies I have ever seen about basketball in psa message boards image

    What do you think? Will he make it into the HOF anytime soon? I figured to pick him up before he gets in to save me some time image

    Giovanni
  • Well it is with this Month's $5 special that its time to stop procrastinating and send out those Hall Of Fame Autos that you want to put up on the Registry. Unfortunatly for all of us it also when you get back cards that looked gem mint when you bought them on EBAY and the come back in a PSA 7 slab. LOL All part of the torture of trying do get quality cards. Im sending out 30 cards Monday. Good Luck All.

  • << <i>Very nice AD, even in that uniform. >>



    Thanks!

    You know, that PSA grading special is very good image

    I don't have to many cards that are 2002 and before, but I have a few. I really couldn't care less about the grade, because I have some cards from the 2001 Fleer GOTG set and they are very condition sensitive, and I really don't care if they come back PSA 5's LOL. I only want to oppertunity to put them in the set registry and to protect the autograph on the card, I really don't care to much about card grade, because after all its the auto I care more about than the card itself.

    Sure, its always good to get an 8 and above, but I really couldn't care less if I get a 7 and under, as long as the card has great eye appeal and the signature on the card is near perfect image

    I will try not to be lazy and get a few cards ready for grading, and do a live youtube video on me getting them ready to be shipped to PSA, and make another video when they come back to me with the grading results. It should be fun, so I will let you know when I make that video.

    Also posted this in my TTM thread. Got the chief Robert Parish in the mail today. Unfortunately the postal service bent this bad boy somewhere along the way. I sent off to his MA address, but this was actually post marked in North Carolina. He may have moved and had his mail forwarded or this is a winter home.

    Nope,

    He signed for free. On Sportscollectors.net this was the first success since 2003 and the first request since 2006. I have him on a 2003 UD Legends as well. Not sure if I was lucky or he doesn't mind signing.
