Nice

I am almost done organizing everything

 

[Awesome Wally]

I've started on my goal of organizing my trade bait, then I want to finish my nearly complete football sets as well as add to my sets from the 60s and 70s.

 

[BiggioDiogu759]

Good luck to all

My modest goals for 2012 are:

Fully organize my Brewer team collection.

Put a large dent in my Topps Brewers base needs from 1980-2012.

Compared to many these are small goals but I am very busy with work and family. Also trading for low-end cards is more in step with what I can afford. Mostly retail packs for me!

Good luck everyone with your goals,

Frank

I love reading these every year. I think mine are going to be similar to last year.

1 - Finish the sets I start. Looking at 2012 Series 1, 2, and Update, Heritage, Opening Day and Archives/Fan Favorites.

2 - Add at least 12 (1 per month) new Red Sox autographs of players I dont have

3 - Organize, Organize, Organize

4 - Finish 2011 Heritage and Heritage Minors (about 10 cards total for the 2 are still missing)

5 - On a personal level, lose 30 pounds (I am VERY serious about this one)

Thanks,

Jeff

2) Acquire the last regular refractor (Kobe) and acquire at least 2 of the 5 autos remaining for my 2006-07 Topps Chrome Basketball set

3) Complete the base and atleast 3 insert sub sets for my son’s 2010 Topps Baseball set. Organize wants/needs better for this particular set

5) Add atleast 10 more Syracuse and Knicks autographs to the collection

6) Send out more TTM requests each month

7) Continue to organize cards and improve website
