I love Don C doing rainbow foil on an all-white card.

Strokes/blokes, I suppose.

I would once again like to thank Wheeler for passing savings on to smaller buyers like me and I hope he has gotten sufficient benefits in return for it.
Again, not everything is about money. I wanted to learn about the process for starting a business, and this seemed like as good an excuse as any. I'm the kind of person that learns by doing. I could read books about how to start a business all day long, it won't sink in. I have to do it to learn it. Also, paying sales tax annoyed me since the cards are taxed again when/if I sell. I don't like inefficiencies (which is what double taxation is), so it became part of the card collecting puzzle for me to solve.

In any case, my card hobby pays for itself and has for years. Does yours?

Horrible Jackie today, not a fan of the Don C Jeter but I need it for the set.

I'm a fan of all 3 at first glance. But going to spend some time before I make a buy/pass decision.

Violent Siff is the best Siff.

I'm annoyed how much I like that Jeter. I think a foil of that card will pop!

Efdot Frank Thomas: This is a top 3 Big Hurt for sure, and a real high Efdot for me in general! Love the composition especially having to use the tricky position of Frank on that card. Blob looks great too.

Don C Jeter: Baseballs king of "Basic" Derek Jeter lines right up with the king of "Basic" fashion and comedy, Jerry Seinfeld. A pairing I had 100% expected to come from OMA, but Don C makes sense too. And as Shinjoy pointed out, it being a rainbow foil is very comical, but gotta feed the beast.

Siff Jackie: What the hell??? Im on board with like 33% of Siffs stuff, but this one is brutal. I am not sure where you begin to think its a good idea to: "What if I made Jackie white?"

Love the stained glass background on the Efdot. Just like his McGwire. Pretty cool to come full circle from card 1 to card 20 knowing how his grandmother's stained glass inspired him.

Efdot looks great. Don C made me laugh at how ridiculous it is. That is OMA levels of bad for a $20 card. I normally love Siff's stuff but my initial reaction to the Jackie is that I'm not crazy about it.

Two observations: This is explicitly counter to your claim you run a business, but I'll let that fly - no desire to be right or prove you wrong here.

Second: I enjoy how much this reminds me of Michigan Melissa's "testimony". Huge grin, thank you. So is it about money, or not?

This is the final cards for Siff and Efdot. Don C has two more after this Jerry Jeter.

I don't hate it, but I'm not going to cross the Delaware River in the middle of winter to defend the Jackie card.

Aaaaaaaand, I am out, exactly twenty cards and done for buying. Clean and easy.

So glad the final Jeter dropped today, that means I will have them sooner than I had expected.

Not a fan of today's Jackie.

The Thomas is real nice, I like that a lot.

Centering shouldn't be an issue on the Jeter Don C. Is this card so tacky that it actually is pretty good? The PR will be solid with the foil option.

Jackie Robinson being white is not going over well on the internet

Jeter was also IN an episode of Seinfeld so it was already a natural pairing. Id give the Etsy Mom swipe more credit if he did that with any other Yankee or Mets player.
