Nice one! Those are great inserts I agree. I used to have the black parallel /25 of Duncan. Traded it a long time ago and kind of regret it lol

I had a feeling you'd like those and that mindcycle would like the Carmelos.
If I'd known you need them I'd have picked one up for you.

Dealer had multiple of the Series 25 (non Hickory jersey) but only one of the Series 29.

If the same dealer comes back for the March AZ State Show I'll pick one up. Also have you seen the Jermaine O'Neal? It's so sick it's got him dunking backwards and includes a rim and has him in the yellow pinstripe. It's not as polished as the PGs because it's an earlier series (Series 4). Anyways I'll keep a lookout my dude.
Awesome McFarlanes! Especially at that price. Did the dealer happen to the Lakers Gasol one do you remember?

Thanks. If there was a Pau Gasol it would have been purchased since he's a HoFer, so not this time, but I'm sure I'll find one at some point.

Really nice Crown Royale and Revolution cards Hondo!

I recently got in these Harris Immaculate cards that I thought i'd share. 21-22 and 17-18 respectively.

Man, I really need to add a Tatum Galactic to my PC. I got greedy and didn’t hit the BIN on an insert yesterday. It was a Vortex though and I just don’t love that set. The die-cuts look amazing though!

Grabbed this 97-98 Stadium Club Co-signers from a hobby buddy of mine recently. It’s surprisingly my first Co-signers auto despite always liking these. I was really close to splurging for a Duncan/Kobe like 6-7 years ago which I’m still kicking myself for not grabbing at the time lol.

This is great man. I love this set. I’ve got a Walker/Billups Celtics copy. My only complaint is I would need two separate copies in order to properly display them in a folio style binder :P

Love the Hakeem/Hardaway Co-Signers. Great auto quality too. I almost bought the same card a couple years ago because I wanted to add a Hakeem auto to the pc. Opted for his 97-98 Topps auto instead as it was a bit of a cheaper option.

The LeBron Optic Preview is super cool. Great grab! Nice to see a well centered card from that set as well. A lot of the cards are a mess in that regard.

So after 25 years, I finally have a card shop in my neighborhood again. They opened up last week and I had a chance to stop by after work tonight. Grabbed these from the bins. Didn’t notice the mj profiles was the gold level 2 version until I got home.

Nice LCS haul! Great bunch of autos there, some players in Deron and JO whom I think history forgets how good they were at one point. Really like the design on the Redd and Frye too.

Added the LeBron recently. Jersey was worn when Lebron played against Kobe on 1/17/2013. Hopefully I can land the Kobe one day.

Had a chance to go back to the shop a couple more times thanks to the holiday weekend.

Again, nothing earth shattering but I’m still happy with what I found. Ignore the sticker prices, my niece’s garbage pail kids and Pokémon boxes are what really burned a hole in my pocket. I’m kinda hooked on the 2021 GPK tins now, I want her to pull a sketch card. But I digress…

While Luka hunting back in his rookie season, I pulled a TON of Shai cards, Optic Auto, Red Prizm, Blue Prizm, Revolution Auto, etc etc with the best being a Gold Disco Fast Break rookie to 10. Regrettably sold it to fund more Luka purchases never thinking he'd turn out to be THIS good. Finally got a Shai to add to my collection and I love it. The Blue Laser from Donruss are so nice looking and affordable

Love me some GPK. :) I bought John Pound and Tom Bunk sketch cards a number of years ago that were from some release from maybe 2013 I think. Those are among my favorite cards now.

I know next to nothing about the stuff outside of remembering some of the original cards/names. I think the odds on the back for sketches said something like 1:9000 (lol). Are those guys a couple of the top artists you could pull? If those are their real names and weren’t #garbagepailed that is hilarious. I’m gona grab a couple more tins.

Those are the original artists. Both Pound and Bunk are their real names believe it or not. Does kind of sound like they should be GPK characters themselves though, lol

I just posted a couple here if you were interested in checking them out: viewtopic.php?t=2287
