This is a neat hobby. I'm just trying not to go overboard.  May be too late though as I have a red, Brooklyn,  and no number.

The red (/5) and Brooklyn (/25) cards aren't very collectible. Most serious #83 Cryptocurrency collectors will go out of their ways to avoid those two cards. However, since I'm such a nice and generous guy, I'm willing to take those off your hands at cost.

Regards,
Chris

Very good, I have a brooklyn and was wondering who I could pawn this off on.  I know I overpaid at 10,000.00 but, glad you are willing to cover the cost. 

For 10k, you get all my cards and half a car

I personally enjoy the hunt as much as the find.  I have only seen a few items flipped but, for the most part the highly sought after rare ones have been extremely difficult to find for #83, #222, and #259.  This makes the hunt even more fun and when you find one you know you have something special.  Enjoy the hunt and most of all have some fun, price will take care of itself

I didn't realize the 222 and 259 were valuable.  I bet I have several of those laying around 

Can someone explain why 222 or 259 is related to 83?  I get they are also non-baseball cards within the 1-300 series, but the topics are very much unrelated.  

I think one of the members here just finds these appealing.   I bought a few cards for a local basketball player - a glow in the dark and framed autograph.  This is a neat hobby. I'm just trying not to go overboard.  May be too late though as I have a red, Brooklyn,  and no number.  Hard not to shoot for full house .

It really is fun.  I absolutely love it.  The hunt is a blast.  Wife and I went to all of the Targets in our area hunting for cards.  We had a lot of fun doing it.  And then opening them and seeing what you find is fun as well.

That is fantastic Frank, really the hunting is so much fun.

It truly is!  We went to about 10 different Targets lol.  Found around 50 of the 3-packs    I've been trying to only open about 5 of them per day.  Makes it like Christmas on the daily lol

[frankbitcoin]

Took me several days, but got all of the silvers/gold border/black borders organized




 
Still a ton more to organize, though. 😅




If anyone is looking for something specific to complete your collection, let me know and I'll sift through what I have to see if I've got it and can spare it.  If I have a double I'm more than happy to trade.  other than my 83's. hanging onto those

Got any signed Tommy Wiseau cards?

Got any signed Tommy Wiseau cards?

Yep.  Sure do.  Don't think I'd sell it, though, since I only have one.

Here's a pic of some of the signed cards:

These are the signature cards I pulled if you wanted to do a trade:

Nice!  I need to order the correctly sized top loaders lol

I will think on it

Sounds good. It's only a passing interest but would be glad to trade any of my non-X signatures for a Wiseau straight up to you or anyone else.  

The top loaders are key. They come in all different thicknesses.  These are 100pt thick and work well for the signature and relic cards.   Don't forget the penny sleeves to put into the top loaders

Hey Frank

I see the pictures of all the cards , that's fantastic I know that had to be fun.  Nothing like opening a pack  and a rare card jumps out at you

Wtf, you are a magician too 

Watched 3 times so far and cant figure it out, outside of topps finally realizing doodles make great inserts.  Superb video bp, well done. 

[owlcatz]

Are you going to auction that doodle? That's awesome, BP!!!

If topps does this, the doodle economy becomes real. Cmmoooooon CJB!

[BitcoinPenny]

Thanks, everyone. I meant to post that video a few weeks ago during the #83 boom. It's a little late, so I'm glad it's still worth a laugh.

Maybe I'll bend the corner, send it back to Topps, and demand a replacement. Just to see what happens.
