    The Bench turns 10!

    A few weeks after The Bench initially launched 10 years ago I joined and immediately found my card trading "home". James Nevans and I quickly hooked up for what I still believe to be my largest trade involving quality vintage baseball cards. Within a few months I hit the trading Hall of Fame...

    2010 and 2011 Topps All-Star Trophy cards

    Michael, Not a problem and no apology needed. You helped me out tremendously by listing the card numbers. It's nearly impossible to keep track of all the variations, SP's, etc. in modern sports cards. It's one reason why I removed myself from the hobby after 30+ years of collecting. Thanks...

    2010 and 2011 Topps All-Star Trophy cards

    Curt, Thanks for the information,...much appreciated. I am totally out of the loop since I haven't purchased a single sports card in 3 years. Any idea of the card numbers of those cup cards in series 3 / update set? Sounds like Topps simply added an SP cup version of the card in that series...

    2010 and 2011 Topps All-Star Trophy cards

    Michael, Thank you! I was able to track down a few of the numbers by viewing cards on eBay and google searches. I tried Beckett, but find their website frustrating to navigate. Why so many cards w/o the trophy cup? That's terrible! Shame on Topps! Thanks again and have a great 4th of July! Bob

    *UPDATE in 2nd POST* Quite possibly the greatest auction I have ever won....

    Tim, I believe you may have just secured the deal of the decade. Based on the seller's current and past auction listings he/she obviously has no idea when it comes to placing values on collectibles in the sports arena. Keep us updated.

    The Bench has lost one of its best

    Curtis and I traded many times over the years and the correspondence was always cheerful, positive and encouraging. My thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of Curtis at this difficult time. The parting of Curtis maybe painful, but knowing he has been "promoted" to the...

    The Bench Autograph Cards

    I have to admit, that was very clever thinking. :) You're always thinking of me, which is what scares me the most.:eek: I may have to speak to your wife about this issue. I guess I'm in the minority with this Bench autograph card concept. It seems rather silly. I can't imagine why anyone...
