Wow! I can’t believe it’s been 11 days since our last post. Trust me, that wasn’t intentional. Free time has been virtually non-existent the past couple weeks over here, which is both good and bad. Good because life matters such as wedding plans and holiday shopping are getting taken care of. Bad because there’s been […]

I just realized that it’s been right around 6 months since I officially started collecting specific players instead of sets. I’m also just over a year back into the hobby. Looking back and comparing the two 6-month periods, there’s no doubt the second half was much more fulfilling and exciting as a collector. Before, I […] I think it’s about time for another trade post, don’t you? This one comes courtesy of Emerald City Diamond Gems, your one stop shop for all things Mariners. All I had to do was ship off some cards from my 1997 Fleer Series 2 box break and I got these babies to add to my […] Now that “Conan” is over, I can write a quick little post. One of my goals with this blog is to write a little blurb on each individual card from my player collections. Mostly, I’ve been accomplishing this through trade posts. On my trade posts, however, I mostly only feature some key highlights and not […] I think this is the last of the completed trades that resulted from what can only be considered an EPIC 2005 Leaf Baseball box break. 11 comments (I think a blog record, aside from the Dawson watch contest) and something like 5 trades came out of that thing. Pretty cool stuff, if you ask me. […] Wouldn’t you know it, November just rolled around. Luckily the weather in Chicago hasn’t really indicated as such yet. We’re hanging in there and have managed to stave off turning on the heat, although that may not last much longer. With the new month comes a new hope for consistency. I see that we only […] Hey, everybody! Once again, sorry for the lack of posts lately. We’ve both been out of town for a wedding and didn’t have time to load up anything to run while we were gone. I need to up my production, and I’m going to start by finally acknowledging my side of a trade completed with […] Masterpieces, Masterpieces, Masterpieces. Bring back Masterpieces. Why won’t they bring back Masterpieces. I’ve heard from bloggers over and over lately. One of you even took it upon yourself to create a placeholder virtual set. While this wasn’t a product I knew about until I came back to the hobby (just like virtually every product, really), […] I’ve delayed it enough. It’s time to get a little in-depth with the Community Break boxes. No more wasting time. I’m just going to get right into it. Run through it real quick. So, here’s my review without further delay. Get your coffee and grab a seat. There will be no commercial breaks. Time to […] **Quick update for all the Community Break participants: Your packages went out the door today! Sorry it took a little longer than I wanted. The product breakdowns, along with showing off some of the goods still up for trade, will be starting any day now. But first, I have to properly honor at least one […] |
