    Shoutout to Rangers09

    I recently had a trade with Rangers09 in which I asked him to throw in an Ichiro or Felix Hernandez to even it up. He send me a total of 15 cards of the two of them. I was pleasantly surprised, to say the least. Classy move. Thanks Dusty! Linn

    local card shop's Panini POD winner

    Hey everybody. I won the Panini POD contest at a local card shop! I received a Justin Forsett autographed card, some packs, and a bag full of football memorabilia. And my understanding is that I'm now entered in the national sweepstakes. Pretty awesome. Check out the Forsett and the interesting...

    My new trade site/hobby blog

    TIMFSU2K: Yeah, man. If there aren't any cards of the team you get, you get nada. But in high-end cards, you're spending $50 to have a shot at some pretty nice cards. I saw a 09 UD Exquisite football case break, where a guy got two Mark Sanchez rookie autos. For $50. It's a gamble, to be sure...

    Hey everybody, I have two outstanding basketball redemptions with Panini. One is roughly eight months old (Darren Collison) and the other is about four months old (Jonny Flynn). I'm thinking about asking for replacements, but I'm a little nervous about what I might get. I was curious to know...

    Million Card Giveaway?

    I redeemed 13 cards and had them all delivered. They arrived just under a month after I redeemed them. I think total cost of the shipping was $9. All of the cards came in soft sleeves and hard sleeves. Five of mine were from the 1960s and all of them were in VG+ condition. It's all on the up and...

    Topps Million Card Giveaway

    I just got my 13 redemptions in the mail, most of them from the 60s and 70s. Most of them were in pretty good shape, ranging from a 1975 card that I would grade as fair to a 1977 that looked packed pulled mint. I was happy with the condition of the cards from the 60s, all vg-ex. Overall, I was...

    Topps Million Card Giveaway

    I cashed in 13 redemptions on March 30. I received one on April 22 and email that same day saying the other 12 were shipped and should arrive on April 29. No complaints. The one card I received--a 1987 Roger Clemens--was flawless. The rest of the cards I'm getting are from the 60s and 70s. I'll...

    One of the worst pictures I've ever seen on a card!

    I actually kind of like the Vladdy card. The Kinsler? Awful. Linn

    Have you guys been redeeming your Topps Million Card Giveaway codes?

    Best I received out of the 10 I redeemed was a 1956 common and a 1964 Felipe Alou. All of mine were cards issued between 1956 and 1979. Linn

    Should've bought it then

    Rationally, I thought, no way that card has a high book above $120. There are exceptions, but it seems like I'm usually able to get cards at low book, which in this case I was projecting to be $60.I thought, as soon as it goes below $70, I'll grab it. That didn't happen, obviously. I'm not...
