What a difference a year makes.
What a difference trading with kids makes.
Despite knowing more people that were trying to complete the 2011 MLB sticker album, I wasn’t able to finish it off until after the 2012 book was released.
The sophomore release was a lot easier thanks in large part to the number […]
We’ve been down this road before.
It’s a good road. It’s a fun-filled road with interesting treasures to be discovered. A road laced with history.
But this is a fragile road because it’s made of cardboard.
It’s also a never-ending road to nowhere, because I don’t know what kind of metaphor or analogy or introduction […]
Right around the same time that I held my All-Upper Deck group break, Ryan H of “O” No!!! Another Orioles Blog, was holding a smaller 3-box break. He came to me with the idea of trading. We’d swap open slots in our breaks (and I think he floated a couple bucks my way to cover […]
In my most recent post, I sung the praises of the #TwitterTrade. Well…second verse, same as the first.
This time, I’m talking about Charles, aka @SWLVGUY. He’s another must-follow on there. Not only is he a great trader, as you’re about to see, but also a fantastic twitter ambassador for the hobby.
Oh, and he […]
Things are going pretty well these days.
I work from home, and while I’m training, my job only really requires me to work maybe 3 or 4 hours a day.
I started up my new movie review blog with some of the extra time. Yup, I’m going to keep promoting it.
I’m keeping up with […]
The Topps Sticker albums are a wonderful thing. They are the best proof that I personally have that children are still interested in collecting baseball stuff.
I know that Opening Day is supposed to be geared towards young collectors, too, but I’ve never had a parent email me asking to help his kid complete his […]
Collecting is a funny thing.
I’ve also noticed that there have been a lot of people recently that have returned to collecting cards after several years away from it. Collecting is in the blood. It’s tough to ignore completely.
On the other side of the coin, it seems like everyone I know in the hobby […]
By the looks of it, many of you already know about the site Got It. Got It. Need It., but I’m late to the party.
I just posted a little bit of trade bait, and a couple of you have responded already. If I wanted, I could use this excellent resource to be more proactive. […]
Several months ago, I participated in a trade bait draft over at The Daily Dimwit’s place. At the time, I wasn’t actively trading, so that I could catch up on my backlog a bit more. Still, I wanted to get in on it, because there were several hits I was hoping to snag for my […]
We almost adopted a cat recently. We were planning to wait until we get a house, but while shopping for our parents’ pets, we saw this certain cat. He was 9 years old and was given up by his previous owners simply because they had a kid and didn’t want to take care of both.
