Bo knows! Nice way to start off the month.

This is where I am at with any future new issues I think. Gilded and Platinum Anniversary to get Chipper in current year/past year versions of flagship (1990 insert from 2025 Flagship will be last one I'd have to get, assuming they do it). Considering they got rid of the vet SP, I have to pony up for Gilded I guess.

Forgot to post these in January thread. And since they’re arriving in the mail on Monday - I will put them here. So so pumped about these modern grails.

Man, that Jeter Status is amazing - how’d you track that one down? Got the Posada bat barrel in yesterday and the Superfractor in January, but didn’t post it. #’s 63 and 64 of my Posada 1/1 collection.

Whoa. That’s a big singles pickup for you, man.

Or did you finally give in to the dark side and rip some wax?

I’ll NEVER rip … it was bought as a single :cool:

Smart, very smart, scan those boxes first and leave the losers sealed. I like your plan.

Made a big addition to the collection just waiting to get it in the mail this week

And by addition to the collection you mean to flip, right?

Picked this up last Friday night from Jared Koenig, pitcher for the Brewers. He’s taking it to PSA on his way to spring training in AZ with a bunch of other cards he’s having graded (he’s a big collector). Great guy with some very sweet stuff. He’s even paying for the DNA cert for me. Was a big conquest until finding out Mookie would be signing for fanatics. Still love the card and story is cool.

Actually no this one isnt moving short of me needing a kidney

I know I posted this the other day in my Crusade thread, but this is the pickup of the month, year, and decade for me, so I have to keep sharing.

1998 Donruss Crusade Red 11/25 (jersey #)

Only the 2nd one to publicly surface since 1998. There are two 7.5s on CGC's pop report, but neither have been seen publicly to my knowledge. I know where the PSA 10 is, and it isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Is that the one you bought or did you snake the recently ebayed one out from under me and you're just using a stock photo?
