Another Facebook find. Didn’t intend to go after another Spectrum but I couldn’t pass it up for the price.

You make that card look good! Beautiful. I didnt realize there was still anything useful on hobby facebook groups these days. Mind if i ask which group it was from?

Interesting observations: all these mentions have no autos or memorabilia and feature incredible photography. Yeah that is an interesting observation. It’s like we actually collect cards over here.. 😂 I do like a lot of patch/auto stuff, but with stuff like Flawless for example, the card designs do...

I mean, they're unlicensed and don't even look good. Inserts are all inferior versions of recycled designs. I guess the base isn't, but where are the in game action shots that make Topps Chrome awesome? I mean, the last two years of Topps Chrome in 08 and 09 are so famous for their photography, and ...

Hell of a mailday, Hornso. Absolutely love those jumbo immaculate patches, doesn't get better than that. I also really like those revolution inserts, really gorgeous cards.

I think I very recently heard Wax Museum mention that he had this person make him a Haliburton Linchpins custom. A quick youtube search yielded this video that might be of interest to you:

Will definitely have to give Burbank a try. Do you find that shops near you accommodate some of the cheaper set building? Around me I feel like I haven't seen much bulk / < $1.00 boxes around me, but I do need to start hitting more shows when work slows down. Have even considered buying bulk lots t...

Got an order in from DCSports, this was the basketball stuff. I'm a happy and willing victim of turning a $10 card into a couple hundred dollar (mostly baseball) order to "combine shipping" :lol: Some notes: Hield encased is /5 and Mitchell is /8. I wonder how much that Bagley Cubic would'...

Congrats on the pickups guys. Those Kemba additions are huge; three 2012 golds and three logomen? That's no joke!

Props to the Knicks, Indiana maintained their game 4 momentum with the way they started the 1st quarter but NY just pushed and pushed and pushed and overwhelmed the Pacers. Masterclass is a good description of Denver last night, Hondo. Jokic with an all time great performance. It was such a unique e...

Going to do my next player, Lebron James. I feel like I have a ton of worthy candidates, since I love most of the rookie cards I have of him, but I cut down to 5 honorable mentions and the top 10. First up Honorable Mentions in no particular order I'm not trying to pump this, but I really do think ...

The acetate, the color, the photo, the Stockton appearance. Great pickup!! I never buy Leaf cards, not bec...

Congrats to the Pacers! Denver bouncing back is not a surprise either. Luka trying to finally make a playoff push for his legacy too! All of a sudden we have some really exciting series! Happy Denver and Indiana were able to tie up their series and I agree with you about Luka. I haven't gotten to w...

Sorry that I can't contribute to your search, but good luck finding the info you seek!

bored... obviously with like 10 posts in a row... figured i'd do Dirk... nothing earth shaking but thats not really what this is about, right? I will respectfully disagree; that is a pretty massive top 10. 10. Totally agree about Timeless Treasures. It was one of Panini's really subtly elegant sets...

Today’s mail day, courtesy of my - almost French - friend Dep’. About a month and a half ago he posted on IG a video of his Top Bobby Portis cards. It inspired me to look for more Willie Cauley Stein cards. I reached out about it; we shared stories about PCs, college ball and my latest purchases. H...

Oh man, I've fallen way too far behind. Absolutely incredible stuff. Your honorable mentions will put my eventual top 10s to shame.

Since the Pistons have been mediocre to bad (mostly bad, and more recently, just awful) since I started college in 2008, I really haven't had the desire to collect any panini era sets for active players outside of my Pistons refractor/prizms chase so I can continue to have a similar style card for ...

Good call on the Lift Offs, don’t have any but it’s a set I’ve been meaning to get in hand. Has to be the only instance of Skybox using the Atomic pattern. Topps def gave them grief over that. The Elevators def have the look of a more expensive set. The same exact effect as Rave Review and Ultra St...

Cautiously rooting for the Mavs and Cavs tonight. Would not be excited to have all four semifinal series at 2-0 heading into game 3 if those two lose.

Thanks for the kind word man. Wish i was as eloquent as you when appreciating and describing cards. Yeah, tough loss, the Zombie Heat just won't go away, I was like having PTSD watching that game. lol And yeah, the Flawless patch is not a RC but a 2nd year card. Edit: I'm an idiot and thought this ...

Got this in yesterday. The two stars of our single world series team in the last 30ish years.

I feel a bit of an imposter posting in here considering all the quality on display! Anyway, got a COMC packaged delivered yesterday. Ignoring all the cards towards my various set chases, here's the ones that go towards my Pistons auto collection and Immaculate Game Worn collection: Now back to bein...

That loss is going to haunt the Lakers. I don't know that they ever had a chance in that series, but being up 20 in the 3rd with Jamal Murray shooting horribly and then losing against a vastly superior team is impossible to come back from. You absolutely have to win those kinds of games against bett...

With the Playoffs starting today, Had to share a top 10 of my guy Jayson Tatum. It's championship or bust for these guys. I'm hoping this is finally the year they break through and get over the hump and bring home Banner 18. It says a lot when those gold framed Noirs don't even make the top 10! You...
