I'm a little low on cash right now. I had enough to buy one pack the other day, lol. Nothing special, and after already visiting this thread numerous times a day to see what others have pulled, I now am doing everthing I can to budget in some freakin' cards ASAP. Yes, withdrawls are a legitimate side effect of this disease, lol.

I got a Joba autograph in a box last night. Should I just flip it on ebay or should I send it to PSA to be graded?
Or any other ideas you guys might have.

magellan

I'd ebay it.......PSA grading won't increase the sell price significantly.

<< <i>I'd ebay it.......PSA grading won't increase the sell price significantly. >>



Agreed

cwazzy

Plus the longer you wait the less you'll get for it. I'd sell it now.

Work some blaster magic Dave.

BunchOBull

No retail for me today (

magellan

Nick, I'm thinking this case was right beside yours.

Ross, haven't received em yet?

BunchOBull

No sir...they shipped Wednesday I think.

edited to add:

I don't remember how he shipped last time I bought from him...did he use UPS or USPS?

BunchOBull

I pretty much think Nick's blaster case sucked all the mojo from the blaster cases stored near it. We haven't a chance...but I'll rip anyway.

magellan

He shipped UPS this time, don't forget my UPS guy was here at 8:10 last night. I believe he's shipped me USPS before also.

BunchOBull

I was thinking UPS is what he used last time for me. The UPS man brought a shipment from Columbia Sports Card yesterday morning, nothing from Jack. I was gone for some of the morning, but no note of any kind. So...maybe Monday? Does UPS run on Saturday?

magellan

They don't run here on Saturday. You're a lot farther from NJ than I am so it will probably be Monday. Sorry

BunchOBull

Sad to hear. The crack the code advertisements and and checklists will have to wait for another 72 hours.

You guys aren't going to believe it but I just opened the blaster I got at lunch... and I got a CUT!! I'll be back with a scan!

Chris

BunchOBull

Paper cut or real cut????

My God.

poguemahone

My hearts racing a little now. This better not be a prank.

cwazzy

You're good, Ross! Sad thing is it was the best thing I got.

Chris

BunchOBull

That's actually more legible than the King George III cut.

magellan

LOL you had me going Chris.

Nick pulled his cut from box 11/12 of his blaster case, I have just 2 boxes left of mine. I don't want to fizzle out but end up with a bang so wish me luck guys.

BunchOBull

Thinking good thoughts.
