The bgs 10 rainbow is the highest graded given the green is a pop 1 (don't have the base so not sure it counts yet)

This is also my 3rd 2012 gold and 3rd logoman.

Thanks
Sheeesh what a mail haul! Congrats on it all.
Thank you Mr Stiller!

Re: !!!---TOP 10 Cards from your Player Collection---!!!

Re: A collecting shift; insights needed HELP!

I have purchase some nice 90s rice cards in the past. But whilst they are nice to look at, I do regret buying them and definitely think once in hand I've realised they most certainly are not worth the price. Having spoken to some of these higher profile 90s dealers on IG for trades of purchases I h...

I have noticed Penny is quite expensive. I see a theme amongst the group to sell now in hoped to buy back later.

I very much appreciate your response. I think about the Money spent since 2018 and agree I question whether this is a hobby for a long term as it does seem quite sustainable price wise.

Re: A collecting shift; insights needed HELP!

I've gone through this before and my collecting did change significantly. Previously I had the second largest player collection of my guy, so basically "super collector" territory. I was missing maybe 10-12 cards. Long story short, the prices on things became more and more untenable, peop...

Re: A collecting shift; insights needed HELP!

I had a big shift in my collecting habits in the mid 2000s. I realized that my PC players I had collected since I was a kid in the 90s wasn't worth much, and although I had fun collecting my all time favorites, I had too many guys I collected and not enough focus on any long term value. Though I'd ...

Re: A collecting shift; insights needed HELP!

The beauty of this is there is no right or wrong answer. I've tried many different ways of collecting and you won't know what you like until you try it. My main collection consists of MJ but because I still watch and play basketball, I have smaller collections of current players. I've collected man...

Re: Should Card "Cleaning" be Considered Alteration?

I'm a bit late to the party here, but agree that anything other than wiping down with a mico fibre to remove prints and dust is 100% altering the card imo. I collected as a kid in the 90s (I wouldn't really call it collecting more just looking at cards in binders) but would say I'm relatively new to...

Re: Embossing needs to make comback!

100% agree embossing needs to make a swift return. Such an awesome feature!

I fear the lack of competition again with fanatics we could see minimal innovation and this frightens me. Only time will tell.

Anyways here is my favourite embossed. The 97 finest gold embossed atomic/74
