Your #1 acquisition at this year’s national

smackvay · 07-28-2023, 11:01 PM

Unfortunately I haven’t been able to go for several years, but i am curious as to what you guys picked up.

1. Your favorite pick up?

2. Most expensive pick up?

My #1 pickup was actually for my Son. After several days of finding way overpriced, slabbed Bo Bichette autograph cards at prices I would only pay for vintage hall of gamers or possibly Judge, Trout, or Ohtani, I finally fought him a 2017 Bowman Tek Bichette auto for $55. It's his first Bichette auto and he loves it.

Hopefully that will be one he keeps.

That's awesome...He will remember it...it's funny, but my kid still has the first auto he ever pulled...Shark boy from TNA wrestling...lol

Bo is his favorite player, so I'm sure he'll keep and remember that one forever.

Digerati · 07-29-2023, 11:25 PM

My Favorite and most expensive pick up was an NT Anthony Davis Rookie auto #/199.
I've been wanting to get one for years and was finally able to treat myself to one

Hey TBP. Go ahead and show it. It’s beautiful.

Need to make sure we are on the same page here and that we are discussing cards…

TBP did point to me yesterday and say, “pull it out” while in a gaggle of dudes.

It would be this Upper Deck Blue Platinum Portrait of Michael Jordan

I’ve could have acquired this, but I let it lie where it was.

Foo3112 · 07-30-2023, 10:50 AM

Only picked these two up. I was also looking for a 1984 Topps Mattingly in PSA 10 but was unable to locate one.

Dhoneal83 · 07-30-2023, 11:07 AM

Finally found what I was looking for!

Nothing special, but I'm going to frame this pic so i always remember the minutes long line to get on the escalator. Apparently collectors need a tutorial on "stairs"

After walking miles and miles all week, I see no issue taking a break and using the escalator.

I took multiple Ubers .6 miles because it was 95 outside and I had been on my feet all day.

If you and the rest were taking the sky bridge and not staying in the hotel behind the convention center, there’s another escalator that provides a shortcut to get back across the street.

scotthenrichs · 07-30-2023, 04:41 PM

Pulled this in the box I bought for the Topps Redemption pack, made my National.
