Back from a short break. Starting a new pc.
I'm back after taking about 5 months off to clear my head and get excited about the hobby again. Honestly, I was planning on staying away but it's harder than I thought. Before my break I was just into too many different projects like Phillies, rookies, sets, etc. that it got crazy and I got even crazier trying to keep up. I made it not fun anymore. I did good staying away for about the first 3 months but then I started looking at the new releases and the excitement started coming back. I told myself that in order to start again I had to come up with a pc and stick to it. Since I get bored looking at the same players day in and day out I decided to go with something that I mentioned on a post here a few months back that I was thinking about doing but never really started, a catchers pc. I'm going to start with rookie and prospect cards first. I'll see how that goes and go from there. Going as far back (vintage) as my wallet will allow me. I had some great trades with people here so I'm planning on getting my trades set up by this weekend. Sorry about the long read but if feels good to have my first post in 5 months.

Thanks everyone! I see some new people on the site as well as people that I've traded with before. Just bought my OPG (went up in price?) so I'm excited to get started.

RE: Back from a short break. Starting a new pc.
Your in luck I just added approx 360 2004 rookies, and prospects yesterday
The include Bowman, Bowman Chrome, Fleer Platinum, Topps Topps Chrome, Topps traded, Topps chrome Traded, Cracker Jacks, Prestige, Donruss, just to name a few. I would bet there are some Phillies catchers in the bunch
Most notable and highest BV in that group though is 2004 Bowman Chrome Gold #50 in the Braves uniform John Wiggins
