Crossed one of the collecting bucket list! Allen & Ginter style!
A few days ago, I stopped by a new shop called Collectors Vault in Rock Hill, SC. Opened some Certified football and a box of Ginter. As my name suggests, I'm a huge fan of Allen & Ginter.

I didn't rip the Aaron. I pulled the Mike Trout out of a pack from a different box!

Oh, sorry. You confused me ... I thought it was in a rip card. My bad. Still pretty freakin' awesome!

Sorry! I was way to vague when i wrote that. I've edited it. The way i had it written, it looked like i pulled it out of the rip card!

are you doing this years sets?
collect:pujols, trout,Salvador Perez,Jeter (rcs)
shipping: please have the respect of packaging the cards were they will not get damged. shipping cards in between toploaders when they are higher end cards is not acceptable. i will not ship cards like that to you so please do not ship them to me like that.
