April Pickups

That Aaron at $15 is just amazing. As a collector, call me nuts, but I get more fired up by a find like that than by simply throwing loot at a high grade example. Real nice eye and nice catch!

and then there's this one. another whale for me, as there hasn't been one of these posted in a long, long time! she was on ebay for all of about 8 minutes when i ran across her. i am still waiting on an original with decent eye appeal. there was one listed about a year back asking crazy money and it was a complete eye sore, both card and autograph wise. i do have the 91 national version, however it doesn't have the original back and reluctantly picked her up solely because i thought i'd never run across a decent original or the 83 topps version.

i was a little skeptical that the card would show considering how low the bin price was (dirt cheap, imo). even in the "a" holder, it's only a pop 4, 2 higher. so, with all that considering the time i have been looking, the price, the rarity, the fact she actually showed up, i am pleased to pick up and present the official topps reprint...still in awe that i picked this one up and my 53 in the same week.
