I've been slacking in getting my stuff scanned. Finally got my **** together.

First up, I broke a box of 2008 Topps jumbos... ouch. Here are the two hits...

Keena Turner NFL Dynasties Auto

Marcus Monk Performance Highlights Auto
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h41/titanbuoy/Assorted/MonkM08ToppsHighlightsAutoTHA-MMO.jpg

Also scored a bunch of titans and rookie cards of the top picks, here's McFadden
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h41/titanbuoy/Assorted/McFaddenD08Topps346.jpg

Keeping on the Raider theme, snagged this for a buck on eBay (had already purchased something from the seller so the shipping was free)

LaVelle Hawkins 08 UD Heroes Auto 098/250
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h41/titanbuoy/Titans/HawkinsL08UDHeroesAuto168d098of250.jpg
(nice hard auto... I think the 90's throwback design leaves some cold, but I likes)


Algernon Crumpler 01 SP Authentic RC 097/550
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h41/titanbuoy/Titans/CrumplerA01SPAuthentic123d097of550.jpg
The best RC of VY's new safety valve. I over paid for this I think... but was sick of trying to snag one on the cheap only to come up short.

Paul Williams 07 Classics School Colors Auto 13/25
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h41/titanbuoy/Titans/WilliamsP07ClassicsSchoolColorsAuto.jpg
I've always liked these... my first signed version. PW cardboard is cheap.

pesky foilboard card... doesn't scan well but is pretty nice in hand.

yes... if you look closely... very closely, CJ's lame-*** sig is on there.

A couple of sweet pick-ups for the Griff collection...

07 SP Authentic Authentic Gold 01/25
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h41/titanbuoy/Michael%20Griffin/GriffinM07SPAuthenticAuthenticsGold.jpg
oooh numbered 1 of 25... card isn't in the greatest condition though. Hard sig!

07 NFL Playoff Platinum Auto 1/1
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h41/titanbuoy/Michael%20Griffin/GriffinM07PlayoffsPlatinum143d1of1.jpg
another 1/1 for the collection... probably should have posted these in the Griff thread, but I was on a roll.


and finally

Beautiful looking (and expensive) card. It took me close to two full years to grab one but finally landed this for just under $40.

Very nice Griffins. I'm slowly building a good collection of him.

$40? The most I pay for a card, with shipping, is like $8. I'm cheap and I'm broke, so it's not my fault.

That LenDale card is niiiiiiiice.

My boy went to a thrift store and bought that McFadden for 5¢. That boy stumbles onto stuff. He found a rookie Chipper Jones at a yard sale for 50¢. :ha:

I'm not ready to jump into Paul Williams or Lavelle Hawkins until they do something on the field. Of course, if they perform, their prices will jump.

I got one nice Hawkins auto RC for $4. I'm not willing to get PW stuff until he makes the roster. I'm not convinced he will pan out. I hear Hawkins is the real deal though. Plus, low risk, high reward.

$40 isn't too bad. More than I normally spend on board, but within the old budget. I guess it's all relative.

Mmm... ok. Hopefully, mine comes tomorrow.

I wish it was in my budget. But, my general fund is under $100, so I gotta slow down, even on my cheap pickups.

Just be patient and grab what you can afford. Try to take a break once in a while so you can save up a bit of cash to grab something a little nicer, but otherwise just have fun... that's the point I think.

The Titans don't have a ton of collectors so if you can stay away from players that speculators are buying usually you can get a good deal (whether it's now or two years from now). I'm worried that a strong Chris Johnson performance on Saturday night is going to bring a ton of "investment" buyers in on his cards and drive the prices out of whack for a while. His stuff is relatively cheap at the moment... he wasn't even included in the "top twenty rookies of 2008 to collect" in a recent Beckett publication (and when you consider that traditionally the most collected players are RB's and QB's it shows you just how little hobby interest there is in the Titans RB).

If you bought the Roos card off a bulk seller don't be shocked if it's a little slow in coming. 99% of the time it'll get there, but the seller probably does mailouts once or twice a week.

hehehe... That's the deal with regular Topps. If you're not into the base set you really shouldn't buy the cards, because the odds of getting some great insert are slim. But yeah... Marcus Monk and Keena Turner WTF? :irked:

They we're going for as low as $46 last week, but after Saturday night there's been a spike in interest. I tried to snag one last night, but it ended up going for $76. There's one ending tonight and it's already at $48... fug.

Why so much? Topps Rookie Premiere autos are one of the most popular cards released every year. Seeded one or two per case of Jumbo packs, they're a hugely difficult pull. Really not hard too figure out why they're so popular; tough to pull, simple "in uniform" portrait design from the premiere event, beautiful hard sigs (although in CJ's case beautiful not be an appropriate description for that sig)... only hard signed cards to date of the 2008 rookies in their new uni's.

I paid $200+ for this bad buoy back in the summer of 06

Nice pick-ups V! Believe it or not I don't have any of those Griff's... what are the odds? The Gage auto is a Topps Finest... nice card, I do have one of those :)

How did you bend your card you dork? I remember hunting all over the place for an Eddie George SP Rookie; it's a red foil beauty, but the foil makes it really condition sensitive. I found a mint one a local card show (unbelievably)... after haggling with the guy I snag the card and a brand new holder for it. When I went to grab the card out of the old top loader I dropped it and of course it fell straight down and landed on a corner... giving it a nasty ding... still makes me burn a little just thinking about it.

:eek: I can't believe it. None? I own that set of Score cards. I have 4 different variations.

Ok. The idiot seller taped a post it note on it. I could not get it off, and so I ripped it off, bending the card in the process. :cuss: It's not a huge deal. I'm not reselling it, and it's not blindingly obvious when you look at it. It's just frustrating.

Bummer. I try not to mess with the cards.

Those Elite National CJ's look nice.

Aren't those sleeves for oversized cards?

I haven't been buying much lately, but here are a few additions, both from eBay and pack breaks.

this is the last of the VY un-numbered Turkey Red parallels that I needed.

I really liked the look of this retro set, too bad that 06 was the last year it was produced

the rest are pack pulls...

Three pretty nice Titans cards pulled from packs... unusual for me.

and a couple of oddly designed jersey cards from this years's Stadium Club... (but still... nice players to get)

this nice thing about busting packs is you get cards of guys you would otherwise never buy. It brings some variety to the collection and gets you to pay a little more attention to players you might not have.

Nice cards on this post and the other post.

They fit the size of graded cards, which I have a few of. But before, the cards were just in stacks on my desk, so it's nice to have someplace to put them.
