They possibly are. Rumors are surfacing that the NHL will give UD's license to Topps, putting Topps back in the hockey card market.

I would like Chrome hockey. Yes indeed.

Stopped collecting this past fall but I wanted to check out the thread and see if SP Authentic came out. It usually does in April. How far back is UD pushing it?

Does anyone know the release date of SP Authentic? I had marked April 8th as the date but that obviously wasn't it.

I want a Yak and Schultz rookies to go with my other Oiler SP Authentics.

Cory Perry owns.

That Panini rewards is a good idea. I love the In the Game rewards program. I still have my personalized Messier and Bure jersey cards from that.

Did the NHLPA make an exception for the Cup to come out this late or is this just what UD does now?

Baseball, but a guy bought a Honus Wagner reprint on eBay for $177 and thinks it's worth millions. The item description says REPRINT

I'd watch Pawn Stars again to see him. He doesn't actually know yet.

He's been collecting for 30 years and is that dumb? I don't believe it.

Reading that article is sad. Guy looks like he has had a tough life. I hope for his sake it is real.

It said right in the auction it was a reprint.

I mean it seems people want a good luck story but this guy has no clue about vintage and there is no way you could open that package and tell right away if it was the real thing.

Put it this way. If you were selling don't you think maybe you'd get it graded. Absolute no brainer.

Blowout Cards is on the case, he's not naive he's just trying to run a scam himself.

Also the local news guy who reported the story had a meltdown on twitter when everyone pointed out to him what a load of poo poo this all was and it could have been disproven in like 5 minutes of research.

Good. I remember a year or two ago there was two guys trying to sell a fake Wagner as the real thing and when asked about getting it graded they made up some lame story about not trusting the process and I think the head of PSA offered to red carpet the card if they submitted and they still wouldn't.

I've never broke with you guys as I don't collect that much anymore but I'll buy the last spot. I am ignorant of your process but I have PMs if you want to tell me who to paypal the money too.

Thanks.

I don't play Magic: The Gathering or anything but as a card collector in general this was pretty drat cool: Guy opens a deck of Magic cards from 1993, and pulls a card that just last year sold at auction for nearly $30,000. His reaction is priceless. Fast forward to about 8 minutes in if you want to get right to it.

I love how much he was shaking.

I got my cards today. Thanks again, Darkwolf. That Eberle jersey is pretty cool. A nice way of making an otherwise boring jersey card awesome.

While I'm coming to see that, I don't understand it. Beckett claims to track ebay and a bunch of other things, so why does it inflate the value so much?

Well with GU cards. Patch quality affects cards as well which Beckett can't account for.

Sweet got the xmas break today.

I was a little concerned at first as it came in a dreaded plastic back that said. "Canada Post regrets that your package is damaged and came in this condition."

But everything looks fine. I didn't see the whole break but everything looks to be intact. Awesome break. The Drew Shore looks great in person.

On edit I put in the redemption I got and realized I have 2 two year old redemptions outstanding. Guess I'll get replacements for those.

The only thing I'll buy from UD this year is a SP Auth. rookie auto of Draisaitl and Nurse because I always buy the Oiler rookies from SPA. (I will never break it though)

I want to start a saving account for baby #2 (whose due any day) so if there is anything in this bucket any guy wants give me a pm or email at kehfee at gmail. I am fine with giving good deals or accepting decent offers on anything to avoid the hassle of Ebay all together (and to find a home with a goon collector)

Like our gracious breaker Dark Wolf I'll also throw in singles (low end autos, jersey and young guns) of your fave teams or players if I have them.
