The wife put an ol magnifying glass in my stocking last xmas because of my straining to see update SP codes. She's 14 years younger than I am and she said watching me struggle with those was "scary". I wonder if she's having second thoughts about marrying an old timer?

I've found this very handy when checking out cards, price guides, etc.

Interested in doing a case break of this, besides the blue jays, what other teams would be a good to bet to buy in on? Any help would be appreciated!

San Diego for Tatis Jr. and could add Urias
Mets for Alonso
White Sox for Eloy

So all this talk of damaged cards straight from packs is real.

Drove down to LCS to get some supplies and bust several boxes. Did 2 hobby and 2 jumbo. Yep, damaged corners here and there. Some on base worthless cards but then also some on inserts and such. Pulled 3 Vlads and no damage to those or the other main rookies but still something is up. Also love printing lines and such. I also opened a box of Finest and got a Adrian Beltre Finest Origins auto with a scratch or some line on the top portion of it next to his head and finest logo.

Quick question that I am going to ask here.

I sold a card from my break on eBay to a buyer in another country. I don't usually use the Global Shipping Program, but I did here because the buyer messaged me first.

We came to a deal and eBay alerted me that the payment was made... But the balance is not in my PayPal account. The PayPal transaction is visible to me, though. I am assuming this is just a currency exchange/shipping estimator delay and it will show up in my account soon?

First time using this option on eBay and selling out of the country, so just a little confused. Any help would be appreciated!

Dodds083 · 06-12-2019, 06:49 PM

Yeah I pulled a nice Eloy and there was a print line right through the center.

glassnickels · 06-12-2019, 06:52 PM

So if Vlad isn't in factory sets does that affect the Montgomery set too?

seanbros55 · 06-12-2019, 06:55 PM

FOMO plus 13% eBay bucks is real.

Had no intention buying any of this, but $570 for a sealed jumbo case with silver packs was too good to pass up...

I can see it going either way. As of right now, I would say that he will not be in it.

There is always an un-balance. It just depends on what release as to which way it swings. I can't remember a recent balanced release to where one wasn't much better than the other.

You can always get it later. Wait for a sale. There will be no shortage, that's for sure.
