That’s nice. Before I even read what you wrote I noticed how bold and clean that auto is. Great pick up.

PSA 10 pop: 50
BGS 9.5 pop: 25
BGS 10 pop: 1

Now doesn't look like the time to post my Chris Weinke auto I got in the mail today.

Late Sept pickup but I just opened the package this morning. For my set... Blyleven 20/20

Some more Heritage Black Refractor action to kick off the month.

I'm just about 33% of the way done with the 2004 - 2012 run.

A tough PC card checked off! High number/black border = zero PSA 10's and only 19 PSA 9's.

Nice! Those black borders are brutal!

Not many card shows in my area, but popped in to a small one at a Best Western. 90% hockey, but found this beaut for a song in a random box. #/25

That is gorgeous!

Picked up a steal of a deal on this beautiful 2004 Topps Chrome David Ortiz red X-Fractor. These are actually limited to /63 but they aren't serial numbered


Also got this Jarren Duran /10![IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20251007/c52d88c45e6eb1147edf1c60ce665288.jpg[/IMG]

while not a Red Sox fan, the red x-fractor of that card looks great. I have a red x of Jeter and they look amazing in hand. super hard to find these anymore

Pumped to add a new Joey Belle signed card to my collection.

Just in time for October baseball… I got this slab back today…

I like that year of Museum.

Here’s a nice one for me - 2003 Topps Chrome Silver refractor from a mail-in redemption program. Not numbered, but thought to have a circulation under 50

Oh my goodness. I wasn’t aware of how rare those were until I watched RiceBondsMntna2Young’s Bonds mailday video where he explained it a bit. Great pickup Scooter.

Thanks man! I’ve been searching for that video, but I can’t find it. Would love to hear his insights on the set
