Yo. So I actually collect Olson. I know his cards well.

First thing you should do is figure out for sure which uniform he wants. I noticed you said "I'd prefer a Braves uni." But this card isn't for you. It's for him. The uniform may matter to him. He may want Oakland.

Then again. Do you think he ...

Some real nice stuff. Love those Ohtanis. Two great ones.

What's the story with this ring card? This is a Lord of the Rings card, only one in the world (like the ring from the series?) and therefore everyone is hunting for it? I didn't even realize there were LotR trading cards. Obviously TCG isn't my specialty.


It's a Lord of the Rings themed Magic ...

If I could have gotten in at $250 or so I woulda gambled on a couple. But not worth the gamble at current prices.

Not thinking cards could ever get popular again.

After initially getting out around late 96/early 97. I didn't collect or think about cards again until 2005. From 05 to about 12 I would bounce in and out. I didn't have a lot of money. So, basically I would treat myself to a box or two every now ...

It's funny. I've been hearing so much about this set lately. And when I did some digging and looked at pictures I was like "eh."

Then, just yesterday, I went to my local shop because they were doing a 30% off all cards in discount boxes sale. And boy oh boy do they have a lot of discount boxes ...

For me it depends on what's being said. I don't mind reading a longer caption if it's a cool personal story about the card, what it means to you and how you acquired it.

Not so keen on reading a long caption detailing why the card is "important" that ends with "available."

For my posts I tend to ...

Lots of those are SP variations. You should be able to get most if not all of them on COMC. I looked a couple up and they're all available on COMC for a couple bucks.

That would probably be the easiest and best option. Get them all in one easy transaction.

Man. Why ya gotta taunt me with that Gehrig?

Haven't bought a vintage Baseball card in a while - currently on a buying freeze ahead of The National - but speaking of The National, I'm hoping to add '33 Gehrig or a '54 Aaron or one of each at the show. But it will depend on if I see any I like for the price.

I don't so much collect them, but I do still have mine and my sister's combined childhood collection in a binder that I like flipping through from time to time.

I have bought a handful (5 at most) of boxes of Chrome over the years. But I just prefer enjoying the childhood collection vs chasing ...

I've collected a ton of things throughout the course of my life: comics, pez dispensers, action figures, video games, pocket schedules, bobble heads. But the constant that I always go back to is cards.

Last year when I turned 40 I decided that I want to devote the rest of my collecting life to ...
