OK,
Two NICE, Not Spectacular, but
NICE Cards...
1st. RAY WAVE Then...
Probably the BEST CARD in the
RIP?
π
Thanks guys
Just can't catch that Amazing
Break! Goodnight
Sometimes its about getting that awesome valuable pull and sometimes its about just appreciating how awesome a card looks.
Think that Shota as a Raywave with that incredible photo and the gold trophy is an awesome card whatever the most recent eBay sales price is.
...Think that Shota as a Raywave with that incredible photo and the gold trophy is an awesome card whatever the most recent eBay sales price is.
Yep, you're right. There's this one card in my PC I top loaded. Not because it has value!
Just the fact how spectacular the card
looks!
This Nolan Arenado...
"Jesus died for you and for me, Thank you,Jesus"!!!
--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.
Now, The pack...
Ehhhh...
Just these two worth showing... Box 3.
Ehhh... Same Pack
This time. We'll open first
Even worse. Just Chili
Finally, The cards...
Well,
To complete the WALGREENS Mixed Boxes.
This Rook
Then,
Wouldn't you know it?
Another
Autograph!
Sure, not an every day name but...
The second Auto from
3 boxes!
Not too bad for only $21
After taxes.
Next...
2025 Series 2. 2025 HANGER Sorry,
I'll be back...
"Jesus died for you and for me, Thank you,Jesus"!!!
--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.
While shopping with the wife at my neighborhood
Walgreens...
I spotted only ONE BOX left in the locked display case.
Had to buy it!
Never, I repeat, NEVER!
Leave any "last box"
on any shelf, in any store!
So, I only bought this one box
I bet, that this $6.49c Box,
will produce MORE value cards, and MORE FUN, than yesterday's 2, diabolical disasterous,
2025 series 2, BLASTERS!
Let's Seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Hmmmmmmmm?
Is this the 1986, 87 or 88
Great Start!
The cards, first...
"Jesus died for you and for me, Thank you,Jesus"!!!
--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.
These cards may not be valuable?
However, FUN can sometimes replace $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
and these very inexpensive
old school cards, are most certainly a whole Lotta more Fun than those miserable
Blasters from yesterday!

Can we finally break this terrible streak? π Just a Heads-up
Today, I finally shipped out to TOPPS my
"Damaged"
Jackson Merrill,
HERITAGE
"COLOR SWAP"
VARIATION Card
I Pulled last week!
It has a huge scratch across his face!
A great Big SHOUT OUT
to,
"Early_Milled_Latin_America"_
For pointing this out to me!
Thank you, very much!
Here is the scratch...
I'm hoping tremendously that
TOPPS, either replaces it with another
Merrill COLOR SWAP Variation.
Or something close to its value? I've never sent in a Damaged card submission before.
I'll keep you guys informed.
Esp my friend, Early_Milled_Latin_America
