  1. Two great pickups, totally trumps my similar cards as I have that same Moose auto but not numbered, and have the Kuechly but the /99, now I'm jealous, hahaha And Jason, I love that auto'd pennant, really cool find with that one
  2. No, because I've never typed his name into an eBay search before, hahahaha
  3. Like jason said, it's best to buy singles as you'll get exactly what you want for A LOT less money But if you really want to open some boxes yourself, buy from blowout, best prices and quick shipping. For which products to buy, that really depends on what you're looking for, but it's all a gamble anyways. Go and watch box breaks on youtube of all the products your interested in and make a decision that way
  4. ahhhhhhhhh, don't these look good together? Never thought I'd even see both of these show up, let alone acquire both of them myself, just need the damn /3 auto to finish off the rainbow, too bad I know two of the three are with people who won't be selling them
  5. I was considering it, because the guy I sold it to is trying to do the full set of Panthers Prizm (he's the guy who beat me out on the /3 auto and the big Stewart collector has the other one that has been sold, UGH) and I know the two of them would have got into a big time bidding war as it would be the first /5 to show up on ebay as I got mine from a guy on the forums before he listed it (got that one for $25 too, LOL) So I would have got about an additional $20-30 on top of the profit I did get if I did it that way, but if I did, it wouldn't have gone to my friend from the boards, but to my ebay nemisis. Since I was already doubling my investment on it, I'd rather it have gone to the guy I like (who also has the last card I need for my Prizm Stewart Auto Rainbow) so that if he ends up not being able to finish the set someday, maybe he'd be willing to sell/trade it to me in return for giving him the good deal on this one. Want to take a guess as to what I've coming in? I'd love to see how close or far off you are from guessing it, hahahaha I'll tell you that it is a Stewart card that doesn't beat the other big ones I just got and doesn't quite crack my top 5 Panthers cards, but that's it, no other hints, lol
  6. Thanks man, I got it for cheap too since the guy ended the auction at like 11 am on a Friday, hahaha Won it for $23 delivered when the first two sold for $45 and $35 and the only other one listed is on comc for $70 and I talked to him and is asking for $50 for it and I got the BC for free, a fellow Panthers collector on blowout sent it to me for giving him a good deal on a Stewart Prizm auto /5. I already had the only one I had seen show up, then another showed up on comc for just $25 (no idea what that guy was thinking to list it at that price, I bought it in half a second even though I already had one), I then sold it to the guy for $50, could have sold it to that one guy on ebay for at least $70, but I hate him and didn't want to help out his collection, hahahaha Just wait till I get this other card in though, as I said before, it absolutely will not be what you're expecting
  7. Just got these in today, but the big one I'm expecting, according to early tracking, will hopefully show up Thursday Prizm Gold 7/10 Bowman RC /150
  8. That's a pretty cool card, I wish I could do that with my teams except I have the Panthers, Tigers and Red Wings, and then the University of Arizona, pretty spread out, hahaha
  9. Ahhh, personally I liked the /25 better, but I also don't like reebok logo patches, always thought they were kinda dumb since its a companies logo.
  10. Which one? I'm assuming it was one of the Topps Chrome Patch Autos as those were sick
  11. Don't you hate it when that happens, I've never understood why some sellers do that
  12. I know, and at some good prices I'm pissed I know the seller a bit as I've bought like 10 Stewart cards from him a few months back when he started to sell off his collection. Those high end Chrome ones he had listed before at really high prices with no best offer's available. Now just after I went WAY overboard on my recent purchases, even with the low prices he had them listed at having offers on them, I couldn't even consider putting in any offers when I saw them listed earlier. I just went in and looked, the best ones all had the BIN's hit on them, almost assuredly by the main Stewart collector, we'll see in the feedback soon enough. Oh well, I'm fine with the money I don't have going towards the ones I did pick up anyways, and the new one I have coming in was worth it too (gave up my P&P BGS 9/10 Cam Auto Patch for it). It's probably not what you'll be expecting to see either, I know you guys will be impressed and probably agree it was worth giving up that Cam auto for it, even though the Cam is worth a decent amount more than it. I had offered to buy it, but then the two 1/1 autos popped up and I had to buy those, so I had to trade for it and the Cam was the highest end card I had that I was willing to move. I even had to throw in a few basketball cards in as well, but at that point it wasn't worth a few nice cheap basketball cards instead of this Stewart.
  13. oh boy will I have a nice surprise for you guys hopefully early next week and no, this is not one you'll be able to find in ebay completed sales pantherfan82, as this one was a trade I made with someone on one of the forums and yes, this is what I mentioned a week or so ago when I said I was trying to work out a deal for a really nice Stewart.............................
  14. That card has quite a history/story behind it First of all, it was sitting in a box of 2007 Jumbo in a card stores warehouse for 5 years and they had just cleaned out the warehouse of old inventory and they just wanted to clear it out quick so they had packs at $6. The night before I pulled it I won $150 at the casino, the next day on my way to the golf course I stopped at the card store to spend that money on some boxes, don't remember what I bought, but I spent all 150 and didn't get anything good, scrub autos, wasn't happy. As I was walking out the store I remembered that I wanted to have some singles for tips at the course, I had a $10 bill so I decided to do a pack of the 2007 Jumbo for the hell of it since it was like 50 cards I'd get to flip through. I grabbed the top pack, then decided I felt a different one would be lucky, as I was reaching in for a different one I said, "screw it, not like there's going to be anything worth pulling in this box anyways" and kept that first pack I grabbed and was off to the course. I pulled into the parking lot and opened the pack while waiting for my friends to show up and was really happy with an AP auto. This was also like 2 months after getting back into the hobby, so I didn't know anything about red ink autos or Topps Premiere autos yet, I was just thrilled with an AP rookie auto. I obviously found out all about them that night from the card forums telling me about them. Sold the card the next day, and after a few days I realized how stupid that was, that it was such a rare thing to have one of those cards and to know for a fact they are real since so many from that year were faked. The guy had it authenticated, graded it, and then was trying to sell it for an ungodly price (really if that set hadn't been tarnished by the fakes, it would be $1,000 card, easy). For 8 months I watched this guy try to sell the card on the forums and was dying to get it back, and he knew it, but I was never willing to pull the trigger on it with the asking price. Finally during the run for the record the guy messaged me and said that he was going to put it up for auction with it ending just after their last game of the year. But if I still wanted it, he'd sell it to me for what I sold it to him, plus the authentication and grading costs, with like $25 extra for him. I knew if I passed on it then, I'd never be able to find it again, and if I did come across one, I'd never know if it was the one that I pulled, so I just bit the bullet and bought it back. As soon as I bought it back it actually made me like AP that much more and I became a big fan of his down the stretch and rooting for him to break the record. Needless to say, unless I fall into serious problems, that card is never leaving my collection again now that I've got it back. The rarity and way that I pulled it makes it a one of a kind card to me
  15. Thanks man, you don't know the half of it I had heard from everyone that pictures don't do them justice, and while I believed them, never fully understood it until I got it. It's absurdly amazing in person, the way all the light reflects around the card is beautiful. Easily the best card in my Panthers collection now, but the Stewart Silhouette might still be my favorite I think if I were to rank my 5 favorite Panthers card cards right now it would go like this 1. Stewart Silhouette 2. Stewart Prizm Finite 1/1 3. Cam Silhouette (pulled myself) 4. Cam Gold Standard (pulled myself) 5. Stewart Gold Standard 1/1 If I didn't limit it to my Panthers though, the AP TP Red Ink would be either #3 or #4, tough call, it's also by far and away the best overall card that I own, that's not even a question. and because I do love that card so much and it's the best card I've ever personally pulled, I think I'm going to show it off in here one more time, hahahaha
  16. oh yea, I had to considering I had everything else for the rainbow besides that one already
  17. and............. here................... we............................ go................................................................................... Both 1/1's (my first and second Stewart auto 1/1's), the GS finishes off that rainbow for me as I had everything else already
  18. WOW Just checked the tracking, and it looks like the second one might have gotten here way faster than I expected and will be getting it tomorrow as well, fingers crossed that I get lucky and it shows up tomorrow as well. It would make a mailday that I know for a fact I would NEVER be able to top no matter what. The combination of these two cards showing up on the same day would be absolutely epic The sad part is that the first was paid for at like 2 in the afternoon on Tuesday, the second was paid for at like 11 PM on Friday and they might show up the same day. That first seller is just pathetic in his shipping times, can't stand it when people do that.
  19. No kidding Me pulling those Cam's was the card gods only slightly paying me back for all the bad boxes I've opened. Not counting my 2011 Crown breaks, because for whatever reason I can't seem to lose on those, I probably have 1 good box break for every 4 or 5 bad ones, and that might be a generous guess. Hell, even when I pulled that Cam auto, I also busted a box of 2012 Magic and my best card was a Coby Fleener base auto, hahaha
  20. oh, and according to the tracking, unless the post office really sucks tomorrow, I'll be getting the first of my secretive pickups tomorrow, the second hopefully will be here Tuesday
  21. Trust me, I've had more than enough of my share of dud boxes, getting something like this Cam every so often is just the card world paying me back for all the crappy boxes I've had. The funny thing is that as great as the hits like that are, they still cost me a bit of money as that's a hit that I would normally sell if it wasn't Cam. So by keeping it, I'm out the $70 for the box, and kinda also out the $125-150 that I would be getting if I sold the card But I'm good with it on this one seeing as the 2011 Silhouettes are my favorite set of all time, that just became my favorite self pulled card ever, and that might not ever be beaten. I'd need a Panthers 1/1 or a real nice Stewart auto to beat it
  22. Just wanted to show the Cam autos that I've pulled myself all together, not pictured is the first I pulled, sold it because it was a dual auto with Mark Ingram and had no logos, it was an Elite Passing of the Torch /25 Pictured in the order I pulled them, Gold Standard is 325/325, Crown /25, Crown Silhouette /199
