Went by after a short day at work. Figured Id just get packs to rip instead of a box. Ended up Buying 11 packs of Elite for $6 ea. I kinda like it. Has a god look and feel to them. Got all three Autos and 1 Mem without having to buy the whole box. Then I started searchin their old basketball singles, which I had never had enough time to do before. There were lots Of Iverson, Shaq, Kobe, Hardaway, Mutombo and then there were just blah cards. I ended up getting a few I liked for $21. Nothing to write home about though so I'll just write to you guys. Also FYI, there are few things in life that piss me off more than Photobucket. Seriously, is it just me or does it take all day to edit 20 pics?

First the inserts and Hits from elite:

Wow...those are insane pickups for that cheap! Pretty solid hits out of the elite too. I broke a 10-11 gold standard today...may not even scan anything in b/c I hit a card out of an 08-09 skybox blaster worth 8x the best card out of the gold standard. Such is life. Well-done!

Man I wish I had a real LCS Sad

EDIT: Wait, are you in Charlotte? I could drive an hour and a half for a card shop that nice!
Yup its off of INT 485 just a couple miles at most. AAA Collectables. Not a ton of Basketball but lots of everything else. Today they had Elite, Limited, and Hoops....But he will order anything I ask for. may not be worth the drive unless you are already in the area. Its a very small shop in Matthews. I did see a couple Mitch Richmond inserts! nothing special though. BTW, the Country Club I work at is doing an Ohio State Alumni Golf Tournament soon.
Do you have any plans for the Kobe All-Star Salute?
no plans. Up for grabs. Kemba, Kidd-Gilchrist, Bismack, Henderson. My PM is Broke so post whatever you want to know here.
OK so here is what I have. I am sure you have most of it but I will list it and see...
Kemba:
Threads Team Jersey(non-auto) Card #1
Hoops Rookie #230
Panini Rookie #226
Elite Rookie Series #9

MKG:
Hoops Rookie #276
Hoops Draft Night #2
Certified Rookie #16
Prizm Rookie #237
Elite Rookie /599 #253
Panini Rookie #218

I doubt this will make it work but it is worth the shot. Let me know.
Cartoon jordans are sweet
So you got both of the graded mj cards and the others for 21?! Is the mj scoring kings fs?
All for $21 correct. I think he was in a good mood. I had five at first and said Id give him $15. He said how about $13? OK. Then I picked the rest out and asked what he wanted. he said $8. I said ok again. cant haggle with that. Im open for offers on anything.
Also, the boxes I found them in most likely havent been searched in years. There are not many basketball collectors that go there so I was the only on to go through them besides a guy who had bought almost every Jordan he had a while back. Im sure he was happy to get rid of a few to a regular like me. Hence the killer deal.
