I recieved what can only be described as the motherload of cards today. 5000 to be exact....football, baseball, basketball, who knows what else...of which I have seen a Score Griffey Jr. Rookie card # 3
89 Cal Ripken Donruss MVP #bc-15
several nolan ryans
several complete sets including 1991 classic best baseball
91 topps bowman football ( sweet steve young #485 in there)
3 or 4 other full sets

I am still not sure whether I peed my pants or kissed the guy that gave them to me ( possibly both)....lol..
Needless to say I will be extremely busy for the next several weeks cataloging....

Happy Early Birthday to me! (Apr 29) LOL

Dang, sounds pretty good! Good for you!

I know, right? Unfortunately it was given to me in a 5000 card box ( not a fan of cards not in sleeves). Beggers can't be choosers I guess..LOL!

Nice! Have fun sorting out all those! Looking forward to your finds. ALmost like atreasure hunt.

I guess having 8000+ cards now in my inventory probably warrants me to start subscribing to the online price guide? =-)

It's a pretty nice price guide. Lot easier to use than going through the magazine each month. Almost need a magnifying glass to do that. Easier to find oddball cards on it too, since you can search.

My opinion anyways.

just the first few cards I pulled out of the box...can't wait to sift through the rest!

[alabamamobster]

So I have been going through this box of 5000 I got from the card shop.

There are some really good cards in this box, Scottie Pippens #90 Skyboxes, #113 Bowman Troy Aikmans, Jerry Rice,# 221 Derrick Thomas ( Rest In Peace my Alabama brother)....

.....to be continued.............

the beckett online is pretty awesome, took me 10 minutes to find two cards in a magazine at lcs the other day, found both in less than a minute online.
