Lately I've been reconfiguring my entire card collection (while watching Bob's Burgers or Family Guy) and doing as many COMC challenges as I can before the Spring Cleaning sale.
I posted a "quote" on my TCDB profile that I'm not making any more trades until every card in my collection is checked into the site. Naturally, I got four trade offers after posting my 'closed until Spring' sign...so I moved my entire tradelist to my collection. I've got more immediate card-related concerns to address anyhow.
Before I complete my cataloging project I have to send cards out to bloggers who have sent/are sending me cards and aren't worried about "winning" a trade.
A couple weeks ago Billy posted a list of sets he is one card away from completing. I checked my TCDB list and found that I have two set fillers for him.. but I've been so exhausted that I still haven't sent them. Of course, Billy didn't let that stop him from sending a PWE to me:
Billy picked out a pair of Brett Favre cards for me, including this 2005 Topps Turn Back The Clock promo. I think it's a promo, anyway..I seem to recall my LCS issuing three-card packs of these with a qualifying purchase.
This 1996 Pinnacle Laser View hologram scanned better than I thought. It took me a second, but I can see Brett's image in there. These two cards of #4 bring my total to 685 (not counting the dozen or so COMC is holding in my inventory.)
The rest of this PWE was basketball based, including a Ray Allen Stadium Club RC for my UConn and Milwaukee Bucks collection.
This Hall of Fame trio is brought to you by the letter W.
And the rest of the PWE. Penny, Deng, and Deron are my favorites here. The Elton Brand looked like a gold parallel to me, but the base backgrounds all have that gold tint.
Billy, thanks again for the great cards! I'm determined to catch up on blogs and trade packages this week, and your PWE will be at the top of the list! (Jon, Doug, and Kerry yours are on there as well.)
Have a great weekend everyone!
