Scanned a bunch of my PC tonight and this will stay in my collection forever! I started to build around it prior to being in trouble at work but since then my HOF'rs have been put on hold :(

Then these bad boys were dirt cheap so I made some funds available to pick them up...

76ers drafted two big men during Thursdays draft. One surprise was that Andre Iguodala stayed put thus far this offseason. I'm hoping he stays in Philly but whatever ownership decides I will support their decision.

Today was another scorcher here in Arizona and they say the high was 107 but it was more like 112. But enough with complaining out the heat here but I was able to pick-up a huge part to my Derrek Lee collection!

Luckily I won a fantasy baseball game and with that money I was able to add those lettermans to my collection. I'm hoping soon I will get back to so I can add more and finally breathe when in comes to the dreaded money topic.

Currently I am watch GSNCards and he is trying to fill a football group break that is not filling. I'm shocked it was not filled because people usually jump on his breaks since they are a great deal.

Keep on collecting!

This was pulled in that case of 2011 Elite! Cam Newton Auto /50!!

Well the Arizona Rookie League is no in progress. I went to the first AZL Cubs Vs Giants game on Monday and had a great time. I luckily was able to get two balls as souvenirs. The game was played over at Hohokam for the first game and I assume the others will now be at Fitch Park. You never know how these youngsters are gonna do and there are some players from this year Amateur draft.

Tonight I was able to win a 2010 Bowman Chrome Evan Crawford Gold Refractor :D Finally a addition to the Cubs Prospect PC!

Tonight I am watching a case break of 2011 Elite Football on BlogTV in TheTruth17's room. There have been some decent pulls and a Cunningham/Vick dual jersey booklet. The product finally has its own booklets like 5 Star for instance and looks very nice and is defiantly a product you want to buy singles Vs busting wax.

Keep on collecting!!!

I finally had some pick-ups and they were from my LCS. Nothing too crazy but filled some needs in the Derrek Lee collection and picked up two prospects chrome refractors! Here they are sorry about the huge scans!

Well didn't win a auction but I only was going for one. My card auction of the day today is the 2010 Topps Chrome Emmanuel Sanders Auto Superfractor that sold for $451!!!

On to another week.....I'm hoping to make some sales this week so I can have some pick-ups to share!

KEEP ON COLLECTING!

CUBS RANT

Mark Quade pitched to Albert Pujols two days in a row and he hit a walk-off in both of the games. Carlos Marmol first gave up the lead when he allowed Ryan Theriot to get the game tying single in todays game. The Cubs need to make some moves soon because if this continues they will for sure finish in last place this season. Whether its firing Mark Quade, letting Jim Hendry go or firing the entire Cubs staff. Something needs to happen sooner or later and they need to try to trade these terrible contracts even if they have to eat some of the money.

Now onto the cardboard side of things. I'm watching a few things that are ending today. I really need to pick-up something even if its not a higher value card. We shall see how things go today and hopefully I can at least win one of the items I am watching.

I'm back

It's been awhile since I have made a post....These past 3+ months have been such a bore since I have been off of work. I'm hoping this month I will be back to work so I can purchase some more cards and autographed memorabilia. Funds have been very limited but I was able to pick up two 1/1's. The 2005 Leaf Certified Materials Derrek Lee Black Mirror Patch and the 2009 Bowman Chrome DJ Lemahieu Superfractor 1/1! I also picked up some Cubs prospects cards of Lemahieu, Brett Jackson and some others.

I was on a chase when 2011 Bowman was released to retail. I didn't have all that much luck but did pull a Michael Pineda Auto and a couple Harper Chromes/Base. I was able to get one complete yet of the base, prospects bases and the chromes rookies. It was a lot of fun but after not hitting a Harper Auto I decided not to buy anymore because I just couldn't afford to do it. I should've have stopped after I hit the Pineda Auto but of course I was greedy to buy more and only hit a Chrome Harper & 2 Base Harpers.

All in all I might be able to make some sales to possibly pick-up the DJ Lemahieu Red Refractor. My only issue in buying that is that the opening bid it is at $150. I highly doubt it will sell for that much so hopefully it goes unsold and the seller lowers his price on the card.

In the meantime until I am able to go back to work I am looking for a possible part-time job. I'm hoping to find something I will enjoy and I will want to be there.

Keep on collecting!!!
