November Pickups

[jchcollins]

Picked-up this bucket list card for around $100 under VCP, thanks to last week’s eBay coupon and a seller willing to negotiate. The corners are more like 6 quality; guessing the 5 is due to a very light and hard-to-spot wrinkle on the back only. Very pleased.

Thanks. It's been quite a while since I spent this much on a single card regardless, but it was the first time I was able to pull off an eBay coupon for a large (well, large for me...) amount. I didn't start out the day on eBay looking for this card, but after I found it and negotiated with the seller - I knew I'd never have a chance to pick up one this nice for an equivalent low price again. I've wanted this card for decades...always assumed if I ever got it I would have to settle for like a 2 or something. Needless to say, today was a great mailday!

Like with John, that 15% off ebay coupon came at just the right time, allowing me to land this sweetly centered Mick at a nice discount. The listing had something like 20 watchers on it, so when the other thread alerted us to the fact the discount was coming, I strategically hit 'buy it now' and waited until the next day (when the coupon went live) to pay for the card. Someone else would have snapped it up immediately.

I know that feeling. I had to send a note to the seller to please decide if he was going to accept my offer before Wednesday evening was over so I could use that coupon...

LOL, thanks Jason. Nice pickup on the '53 Musial. That one is on my list as well. I had one breifly back during my dealer days and didn't keep it. That is an iconic card as well.

These are upgrades for my 1964 Stand-up set. I added the Newcombe to my 1961 MVP subset.

A few more for my 52 Topps PC.

Was hoping for a better centered copy of the Marv Rickert card but this one has eluded me for a while, as had the Kazak card, so these will have to do, for now.
