Let’s Not All (Gold) Rush At Once

So, you guys already know about the 5 Jumbo cases we opened of 2012 Topps Series 1.

As you can imagine, that left us with a massive box full of wrappers. Normally these would go to set packing material, but this year Topps announced a very limited-time offer to redeem your wrappers for more cards.

2012 Topps Series 1 Baseball Review and 5-Case Recap

Phew! Who knew baseball cards could be so much work! Still, even after opening five Jumbo cases for our business venture, you won’t hear either of us complaining (well, maybe after 16 hours straight of back-breaking sorting). You’ve seen a little taste of what to expect on our video from a few days ago, and […]

Pre-Group Break Group Break Post

I think by now you guys have figured out I’m a fan of large group breaks. I love variety. I love value. I love cards, and I love seeing or opening things that would otherwise go unseen or unopened.

(What’s that you say? I have an 11 box Topps group break currently taking sign-ups? Why, […]

2011 Topps Finest Baseball Case Breakdown & For Sale List

Thanks to the select few that joined us for the live UStream Finest Break. I know it was a very last minute announcement on our part, so it’s amazing anyone came into the chat room at all. It was a lot of fun chatting with The Daily Dimwit and the newly titled Life and Baseball […]

Junk Mail

In my never-ending (and barely-begun) search for all things Stadium Club (baseball-only, non-sticker-auto’d, not-numbered<50), I’ve had to make some seriously questionable purchases. In fact, I’ve made many so far that I’ve not even gotten around to shaming myself with on the blog. But this one I’m moving to the front of the pack because my […]

It’s A Cardboard Smorgasbord

There’s no doubt in my mind that I’m the last person from BA Benny’s Baseball Card Buffet’s massively awesome group break to show off their goods. I’ve seen a couple of you go through the piles of cards in extreme detail, and most of you give a couple key highlights. I’ll be in that latter […]

The For Sale List – 2011 Topps Lineage Edition

Our Lineage Group Break went off without a hitch a couple weeks ago. All of the cards for claimed teams were packaged up the same night and shipped next day. A couple people have even posted their hauls on their blogs, which is great to see.

Now, it’s time to show what’s left over. We […]

The For Sale List – 2011 Bowman Platinum Edition

We’ll get back to normal blogging activity shortly. Forgive us for going a little hog wild on the Bowman Platinum. It’s the first product we as a business have opened to sell, so we’re pretty excited about it.

If you saw the videos, you have an idea of what we have. If you didn’t want […]

I Bought A Repack Box

There. I said it. I’m not necessarily proud of it, but we’ve all been there.

I bought this in a particularly down time in my collecting life. I was on the hunt for some new NBA Sticker hotness (find my want/trade list on my trade page) and again had come up empty. I needed to […]

At What Point Does It Become False Advertising?

I’ll get to the main point of the post title in just a second, but first I want to encourage anyone who may have missed it to read Andy’s latest post below. It can be really easy for us to dismiss certain blog posts because of the title (I know I do it often when […]
