Mattingly is my favorite player set so far, happy that we get to end with Tyson Beck.

I do plan to keep black TTM autos very reasonably priced, even after the free period ends.
That’s kinda cool. Lotta folks just wanna squeeze every cent from something.

I’m not sure how’s he’s making money, but it seems to be working.

Thanks Kek! And speaking of the site...

-----------------------------------------
Another Update
-----------------------------------------
You can now view larger card images--it looks fancy too! Just click the card and enjoy it in all its glory. To close it, just click the image. I included an X at the upper right-hand portion of the screen just in case.

This change has been carried over to the custom lists, but only new lists will get the treatment.

Go check it out!

This works great and will be extremely valuable in my framed art print decision-making process!

Got one wrong card from TwinsJake, too, but decided not to do anything because the Gwynn he sent (Don C) had a way lower PR than Efdot's Gwynn, which I just bought on eBay for about $8.

I held off on switching to Wheeler for a bit, wanting to go for gold, but decided it wasn't a smart probability play for me to pay an extra $5 for a very small chance at gold. That extra $5 adds up and by far the most likely outcome was several hundred more spent for zero golds.

But now I am buying the ones that have foil parallels direct from Topps.

Zero wrong items from Wheeler so far.

I'm hoping for more P2020 spin offs like the Cartoon & Siff world Series, and Efdot Stadium cards!

I'd love an Ermsy or Shore spin off set!!

I noticed that Silas... he didn't put the Star Wars helmets on the print.

I prefer the card. But I'm a huge SW nerd so go figure.

Probably the black market Star Wars print and the black market non-Star Wars card.

Very hard to get as most are in the hands of very ardent collectors.

Being a Star Wars nerd is what got me collecting JK5’s run. It’s unfortunate they took the images off the print IMO.

Warning, tangent...

We were supposed to be in Disney this past week, building our own lightsabers with our daughter (who’s 5), but we cancelled the trip. I’m also running through all of the animated Star Wars series with my daughter and we just got through the Clone Wars episode where the younglings find their kyber crystals and build their lightsabers. My daughter was so sad. I couldn’t handle it, so I immediately found someone on EBay who builds them for you at Savi’s Workshop in Disney and ships them. Christmas is saved! Can’t hide money! To be honest, I’m kind of jealous she’ll have one and I won’t haha.
