Sick Raufs, god damn

So excited to add this to my Wemby PC. It's my biggest Wemby pickup and new #1 in my collection. Big fan of White Sparkles in Optic and Prizm so rolled this dice and picked this up

[Duncancollector]

Here is my latest pick-up. Received it today. I love this card. Finally landed a Pippen on card auto, which I like and which is rare. I am so happy to add this beauty to my autograph collection.

Congrats, that is a gem. That’s literally the first card I’d target if I was looking for a Pippen auto.

Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t he one of the players in the set that only signed in blue?

[AbraCalabro]

wow that pippen is a true classic, one of the rare instances I'd prefer a skybox auto over most upper deck

i'd be worried about forgeries though

[Duncancollector]

@darz90scardz thank you. Yes, it is a classic card and I agree with you. This has been my first choice if I buy a Pippen auto.
I don't know, if there is a black version as well. However, I like blue ink much more, and blue is the better and rarer autographics set that year in general.

@AbraCalabro I got this card from IG member chronologycollector and he has owned this card for over 10 years. Yes, there are forgeries of the skybox autpgraphics out there , That is really sad.

Right, I think this might be one of the few all-blue ink exceptions but I wasn’t sure.

Totally agree that the blue inks look great though

Congrats on the pickup! Absolutely a classic card from a truly significant set. On the topic of the blue autos, remember when Panini tried to change things up by doing almost entirely black autos in 16-17? Appreciate the sentiment of changing things up, but that was not the way to do it.

Amazing pickups! That Wemby White Sparkle is HUGE.

Newest Wemby Pickup

Newest Wemby Pickup

Nice, it's pretty cool that Wemby has 2012 prizm silver. Such an iconic design and set, that's a really fun addition to the collection. I'm sure it's also a much more attractive card than his true RC prizm silver too haha

One that came in yesterday..

It's even bigger and better on the computer. It's tough to beat old-timer patches.

Beautiful die-cut heavy mailday! Great photos on the Penny and Pippen (though the theme is lost on me). I like the shine on the Penny and MJ, with the Penny being my favorite of the bunch, I think. The MJ is cool with the accolades in foil on the front. Is that an insert? I'm not familiar with UD3 at all.

[AbraCalabro]

One that came in yesterday..

quality patch with holofoil, win/win in any hobbyists book

sick photo, the gold parallels are dope


latest and greatest from me, got another one incoming soon.

@Hondo will love this one. I love these cards, any one got leads on an Antoine Walker?




Dice. SPx Finite Spectrum. Been after this one for a while.

[SacKingsCards]

Great pierce patch! Hard to tell whether it is legit or one of your mockups haha I always get shaded out by those early 00s patches because they're so high numbered relative to today's prime patches

Beautiful spectrum as well, didn't even know McDyess was on the Suns...oops. And #34 as well. My first reaction was "Wow, Charles Barkley looks different in this photo."

Thanks dude, I appreciate the compliment lol. It's crazy how so many early 2000s stuff had some mind blowing patches in them, although with the Celtics you're only getting two colors, so I'm glad to have this two color monster lol.

I remember when he got traded, I think he really wanted to play with Jason Kidd - he had a good run there. lol'd at the Barkley comment, he's a lot more lean and has hair!

One in today

Nice old school patch auto!

[SacKingsCards]

My two additions from yesterday. Very happy to have added the KMart after a multi-year search

[HoopsHobby]

Two sweet cards,SacKingsCards. Kevin Martin has a nice signature! These photo shoot autographs look great and are tough to track down!!

[AbraCalabro]

wow, I don't think I've seen those Topps cards before. That looks like it's on card too? Great looking card, super clean.

Dude, love your website. I wish there were more like it.

[ChrisP57]

The first year of Obsidian is one of my favorite sets ever made. Been wanting a Bron for a while and finally get to check it off my list. This is the Green Parallel numbered to 15

Thank you, I agree about KMart's signature, and it has remained nice though it has gotten shorter over the years. I still haven't seen one of these photoshoots with a hologram. I too love your website and look forward to checking it out over the next few days or week!

wow, I don't think I've seen those Topps cards before. That looks like it's on card too? Great looking card, super clean.

Yes, on card. They were signed at a Topps photoshoot for rookies. Not sure whether it was the same or different from the NBA rookie shoot.

Absolutely beautiful set and card. I haven't kept up with recent Obsidian, but I did like the first few years of it for sure. This first year has such a clean design and isn't too busy.

Nice. That's one CRISP card dude, on card and a clean auto just takes it to another level.

Been out sick with the flu for the past week so I haven't shared any of my recent mail. Back in my office today feeling slightly better.

I used to be hesitant to go after these unlicensed products but Kyle @Deadshot convinced me over the last year or so that they're a great option for some badass relics for a fraction of the cost of licensed cards. I won this for around $45. If it were a licensed Panini card it would've cost me 10x that.
