Streaky! Wherefore art thou?
Silver alert! Silver alert! Silver alert! Silver alert!
Streaky, the lucky retail streak, has gone missing for several months! He's been missing throughout the 2015 Topps series I release, 2015 Heritage release and continues to be missing during the 2015 Opening Day debut!
Current Whereabouts unknown.
Last seen drinking and carousing up north with Jared!
Substantial reward awaits! If found please return him!
Silver alert! Silver alert! Silver alert! Silver alert!
I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

Hahaha. I haven't seen him for a bit either. He's potentially hiding in my messy closet though, as I had some minor luck with some Donruss jumbo packs over the weekend. I'll get some pics taken when I get home and we'll see if the lost has been found.
He definitely wasn't on hand when I busted a blaster of Opening Day.

He was in central Florida area up until my case of Bowman Chrome arrived and promptly left me high and dry. That is all.

Streaky doesn't go for Hobby, he's straight up retail.

When you pull a Ken Griffey Jr. Superfractor out of retail I don't think you can call Streaky names. And I think you use up most of the mojo he allots you for a good chunk of time. haha
Doc has known him longer than I have though. Maybe I'm way off.

I guess you have a point! Will never forget the day I opened that! I wouldn't even touch the card, I handed the pack to my wife, as soon as I saw the gold borders.

That's what I was about to say! Possibly the best retail pull I have ever seen.

Fickle? Nope. Cranky? Sometimes.
Bi+c#? Nah. Ba$+ard? Sure.
But when he's good, he's very, very good!
When he leaves, you'll miss the little bugger
STREAKY COME BACK!
