Bros, Check Out This Gem Fire Lions PC Add!
Bros,
I got a huge add to my Lions PC in the mail this morning ... for the same cost of a bloated blaster of Prizm basketball!
I'm not a grader but this is a beauty of a card.
Couple factors in how cheap this was ...
- College uni stuff tends to fade as pro stuff starts to come out
- He's still on IR so a lot of folks have forgotten about him
But if that works in my favor I'm all for it!
This is a Gem Fire Banger for sure, let's effing go kids!

In all seriousness, that is a very nice add. Thanks man, for the price ($35 + shipping) and the condition of the card, I'm pretty stoked.

Luminance also for some reason doesn't sell for nearly the amount I'd expect it to given how good the cards look
That is a fantastic looking card - and a real bargain when compared with the box price

That is a fantastic looking card - and a real bargain when compared with the box price Thanks, it's definitely got some "foil" elements that give it a prizm type effect, and four corners with no chips front or back.

Panini gets their money, gem fire banger bros get their money, the people who buy those lose their money, and we get the cards we want for the same price as the inflated boxes. I think it all works out fairly.
Nice add! Given how... gem fire banger... Detroit's offense has been, Jameson could take it to the next level. Of course, that defense does need some fixing...
Please reach out with any/all inquiries regarding sending me Riley Leonard cards.
WANTS:
RILEY LEONARD/Jake Bobo
Tre Jones
Cam Newton/Christian McCaffrey
2015/2017 Panthers

Jameson will definitely help the offense, because Chark has been a flop so far.

The card itself - GemMT 10. The auto gets a VG 3. lol
At least it wasn't 2 semi-legible initials, or some squiggly lines. But not much better.
It is amazing the lack of care the players of today give to their autographs. If their name wasn't on the card, you would have no idea who it is. You look at players from pre-2000's and they are so much better.
I collect Andre Johnson, JJ Watt, Redskins who played in the 70’s & 80’s, HOF’ers and Texas A&M Aggies.

And judging by this, Williams could definitely sign much better

https://www.paniniamerica.net/fb22h-0022-red.html Yeah, there were other autos where the signature itself was nicer, but A) they were at least twice as much and B) the on card Elite autos, for example, were dinged to all hell in the corners and very chippy.
So I went for the best combo of condition, price and auto, LOL
Metchie in particular is a weird one, he has like two distinctly different signatures floating out there ... usually rookies don't shorten up their sigs until they've already signed for a bunch of different products.
