It never fails - petesahuttt - 07-08-2014

Every time the new A&G is about to hit I get hit with a ton of offers for mini lots that I would normally be all over if it weren't for the fact that I am gearing up for the new release.
Today I am offered a near full set of '13 GQ SP mini's and a lot of '13 A&G EXT's and rare inserts.
It's a tough decision to make since I am retired and get a monthly allowance (which I am already over on, thanks to BML)
Tina, if you read this, keep those '06 EXT's away from me for another month or so Smile

Ah that stinks Pete. But don't worry you won't be getting any offers from me. Decided against the stuff this year Sad

Ginter seems to do that to collectors every year but they always come back.
The guy that was the driving factor in keeping the Rip Card values up is back this year after swearing off A&G last year for doing the Double Rip Cards. You'll be back next year Smile
I got everything I wanted so far in my wishes for this years release. They added the retail only Gold Border minis again, they made exclusive red border box loader minis, and I;m not totally sold on the mini Rip Cards but I am really loving the concept. Only thing left to hope for is a hobby-only unannounced super SP mini insert ala Saltiest Sailor's from 2010.

LOL, basically already working on layaway, whatever I buy today will be paid for closer to Christmas than Halloween Smile

I bought a couple of blasters yesterday. The retail minis are in the hanger packs in a special 3 card pack.
