Holy shit John, that's quite the haul!

swarmee 06-03-2017 03:35 PM

Yeah, COMC can be frustrating at times, but when you can buy all kinds of sports and nonsports cards, it's pretty amazing.
I do have to return one of the cards from my order that looked much better in the picture than what I received. But I emailed them and they've already told me they'll accept the return no problem and reimburse me the shipping back to them.
Plus, I now have about 20K cards for sale on site with another 10,000 to price/list that I just picked up in port sales. No way could/would I do that if COMC wasn't a thing.

I came home with this after a card show today:

Thanks. I was happy to get it today. I've been slowly working on a master set.

Smallest card I've ever seen. Purple back to go with my orange back.

Some recent additions for my 52 Topps collection.
That Richards card was a tough one for some reason, but glad to say I finally snagged one! :)

Thanks, Jason and Dale. Had a cool conversation with my daughter, a budding artist, about cards today. Looked at some Robinson cards online together. An awesome unintended consequence.

Net54 has been an invaluable place to learn!

Someone from another thread was saying they were also looking for a Friend.
I had my eye on this one, (and was hoping they didn't) and a couple others and I am glad to say I got it. :D

It wasn't cheap, $25 and change, (Philley was $22+) but I couldn't let it go as it was a tough one to get and one I needed.

Bidding was ferocious on these 2 cards, which I luckily won, but one that I also needed, unfortunately got away.

Edit: Removed my listing pics and added the real ones as the cards arrived today. I must say, for me, these are some of the nicest 52 Topps I have purchased. They look real nice in hand.
Also, while I purchased the 52's, I decided to grab this multi-player card of Koufax, Juan Marichal, and Vern Law from the same seller for under $5.00 bucks. I like these multi-player cards and this one was priced too well, imo, to let it slide.

Here's a nice signed 1957 Topps Kubek RC I picked up in a lot of signed cards on the BST!

Darren,

Nice additions. Love the Campy. My '52 low number set is pretty much in that condition. Can get great deals on well-loved cards.

The Greatest Moments set is very cool. The Reggie Jackson is one of my white whales for my RJ player set.

A candidate for the "Ugliest Set Ever"!!!

RARE set to be sure, but dang they are ugly!!! This is how they were made in strips of 3 players.

Let's see how good you guys are... Identify the set! If nobody gets it I'll let you know.

Took my player collecting into O-Pee-Chee. Had resisted for a little while, because the cards are identical (almost) to the Topps cards, but I really like these, mainly for the centering/looks for the grade.

Dewey 06-23-2017 02:01 PM

I got nothin. Tell me more! "Ugly sketch baseball card" came back zilch on Google.

Thanks a lot - Clemente is my favorite player to collect, and that's one of my favorite mainstream issues!

Thanks - Maris is one of my favorites and I find him really under-appreciated.

He also has a ton of great looking cards in his Topps issues - '58, '60, '61, '62, '65, 66, '67 - those are just a few of my favorites!

Thanks, Nelson. I'm slowly but surely getting there, if I ever completely get there, but I'm enjoying doing what I can.

Nice cards!

Maybe I'm wrong, but aren't O-Pee-Chee's a little tougher to find and therefore also more valuable? I know this is the case with some Hockey cards but I'm not 100% sure with baseball however?

DBesse27 06-23-2017 06:16 PM

I am psyched to knock this tough HOF'er off of my ever-diminishing 1961 need list. I used the $15 off coupon code to grab it up...

Attachment 278030

The centering on back is most likely the reason for the O/C qualifier (And I couldn't care less!! Woo hoo!!), but if you look on ebay, the front is centered better than a heckuva lot of NQ cards. Love it!!

Shoebox 06-27-2017 03:36 PM

Another HOFer off the list with this one.
