I took this:



Did this:



And turned it into this



Will reencapsulate it in a red flip holder with the PSA/DSA designation before it's said and done.

Derrick,

Pic is really small. Any way to enlarge it and show a back scan as well? (Your answer is probably "I took this from an ebay auction and that's the only pic the seller shows"! LOL)

Dboneesq

HAHAHA ... as soon as I posted you edited your post with an enlarged scan! hahaha

raiderguy10

lol it wasn't from Ebay, it was from photobucket. but I grabbed it from the slideshow by accident :-) .

Thats the kind of card youd want to put in your pc!

raiderguy10

. Not all of us can afford what we want. I work 6 jobs to take care of my family of 5 so my wife can be a stay at home mom. That's most imoportant to me. I just want one to have one.

Fifty Bucks.....

Just a guess, since with the ink marks it would be super low grade.....I see a beat up creased one on ebay going for about that right now and since its just for your PC, I would say $50 would be ok, but I dont have enough knowledge to tell the fakes from the real on Ryans...mine is a PSA 5...one for my PC

Hey partner,
The eye appeal on the card isn't bad. I'd say $30-40 might be fair on it.

$50 sounds fair.

Derrick, I just want to commend you on being a hard working man so your wife can stay at home with the family. If this country had more people with that kind of work ethic & kindness it might be better off. All my best to you and yours! Tigerdean

thank you very much. that really means a lot. it's a sacrifice for both of us. I have a normal 7:30-4:00 job, I get up twice a week at five to donate plasma,I teach a tax class for a local university once a week,I prepare taxes,I do bookwork for a local daycare, and do payroll for a local construction company. I don't take on a job unless it's something I can do after my angels are in bed.the bad part is my wife and I don't have much time just for us, but we are happy and that's all that matters. whatever spare time I do have goes to the hobby and trying to get my five year old son into it

ttt with new offer

tigerdean

I personally think it has good eye appeal for the price. Would look great with a auto!

churchiscool

just gotta be careful about spending too much on a ttm card. if lucky you'll get it back in 6 months, or you might not get it back at all. card could also come back dinged etc. best of luck D

TTT for Koosman advice

Yankees001

I would only do Koosman through a show. When I got my 4 Ryan Koosman RC's signed i went through MAB. They were great and professional.

Dave

corncobb

ok

esquiresports

If I had Ryan sign the card, I'd also want to get Koosman. Just gives the card nice symmetry. Try to get the same color/type of pen, even if that means mailing it with card.

Got a package from UPS yesterday

congrats! why a red flip and not a blue flip?

Foo3112

Looks great. Are you going to flip it now or is it going into the PC?

raiderguy10

<< <i>congrats! why a red flip and not a blue flip? >>



To authenticate the card as well. I'll wait for JSweiston to do another group submission to have the card and signature both done

It's a PC item now. Always wanted one signed.
