  • What do you do with all these cards you open? I am an organizational fanatic. I keep all my cards in order by year and maker. I have a spreadsheet of every card I have. I would go crazy trying to get all these older cards organized.

    Hi, yeah I basically try to organize mine, as well. After I put some on Ebay or go to my LCS to trade or sell my more decent ones. One thing I do not attempt to do is,
    build any sets. Too tedious and time consuming. I much rather RIP and Show to you guys.
    I love taking my time opening packs. I post many
    ( valuable pulls and/or Beautiful and /or unique) ones!
    Amazing you said you frantically organize. Cool!
    Patience master, huh?

    Note:

    On the ones that are curious about my last submission.
    "The REDEMPTION"
    Paul Skenes, Autograph from
    Heritage. Along with 6 other cards?
    I just found out.
    Won't be receiving til about September!
    :#:#:#
    Yeah, because I have someone send out to PSA for me. He waited until 199 other submissions he got before sending mine out!
    Boy 'o boy!
    If I knew he was going to do that. I'd try to ship out myself!
    Oh well...
    Hopefully,

    OK guys,
    I thought I'd go the different route!
    Physically and Financially.
    Quick Story:
    This morning, my plans were to head out to the NATIONAL today, in my hometown, Chicago!
    But something was tugging at me to change my plans?
    For a couple reasons. I kept thinking, wow, I'm going to have to spend nearly, $50. before barely walking in the door! $30 for admission and about $20, for parking!
    Plus the gas used to travel over 35 miles.
    So, I had decided to try to sell some of my stuff I brought and use that $50 to buy something at two of my favorite LCS's Instead.
    When I got to the first shop. A Guy, with his 12 yr old grandson, was explaining to the clerk behind the counter. "Yeah, we just came back from the NATIONAL "Trying to get in" but it was chaotic!"
    First of all, NO PARKING!
    Then, he said his friend phoned him from inside saying the lines in here are horrendous! Over 1 1/2 hour wait!
    They turned around and headed for the shop where I ended up at.
    I thought right away. "Wow, thank you Jesus." For talking me into taking a "different route" myself!
    Different plans entirely!
    So, which leads us to this plan.
    To buy the 2022 Chrome box instead of spending the money on admission/parking!
    I never bought this series!
    I sold a few items here.
    Then, off to my other LCS.
    Same story there.
    After selling a few more of my items.
    I end up purchasing
    the
    Two 2025
    BLASTERS

    So guys,
    Is this destiny for some
    GREATNESS?
    We shall see...
    The
