    First haul of President's Choice Game Used!

    I went a bit crazy when I received the email announcing the opening of the store for the AKA insert of the product. I think I was the first on the site, so I just went all out. I was very excited when I saw the envelope today. Joliat, Hainsworth and Plante are of course PC. As for the...

    SPGU 2 box breaks on ePack

    Opened 2 boxes a couple days apart. Only two cards worth mentioning, as expected, although I did pull a Auston Mathews jersey from box two; as far as base jerseys go I'd say that's a decent one. Box one got me this card. No red halo around it, and I couldn't find this set on the checklist...

    1 Box of President's Choice Solitaire

    Hey guys! Came out of my box breaking retirement to try out the new Dr. Price Product, and I'm glad I did. I ordered my box from L'Imaginaire, a Quebec City based store who had a promotion going with the product. Dr. Price produced special Quebec themed redemption cards that they give away with...

    When I get a jersey card, it needs to be Tricolore...

    Hi, me again! Recently a couple very nice cards appeared on eBay. Both the same card, one silver, the other gold, from the 02-03 BAP In The Game Used Vintage Memorabilia subset. The best part of those cards was the swatch. I decided to bid on the silver version; I figured it would end up a bit...

    This is History! I see double... Or is it quadruple?

    History of Hockey is a product that was released by In The Game back in the 2012-2013 season. It received mixed reviews; some loved it, some hated it. Every box included 1 original memorabilia card, 1 autograph buyback, 1 rookie buyback and 1 ITG buyback. The card that was special to me was the...

    A couple new rare additions to the vintage Habs PC

    So before September 26th I had purchased 2 cards in all of 2019. I'm still on HI daily, I still check FB groups and breaks, but it feels like I was finally cured from the "cards bug". Then someone posted a couple cards I liked on eBay. Then Superlative was released. Then someone else posted a...

    A New Addition! That happens to be a dupe... And a relief!

    Hey there! Although I'm pretty much out of the hobby, I still keep searching eBay and reading this board regularly. Today I received a new piece to my vintage memorabilia collection, and it thought that would be worth posting! But then, as I was putting it away, I realized I already had a...

    A new cornerstone to my collection

    I don't use the term "conerstone" lightly. I have a lot of great pieces in my collection, but once in a while Dr. Price or Leaf will create amazing pieces that are just too nice to pass. I must have cut 90% of my collecting spendings since the birth of my son (even before), so every new piece I...

    3 packs of President's Choice Bleu, Blanc et Rouge, with a top 5!

    Although I cut pretty much 100% of my box busting days, I simply couldn't pass up the release of Dr Price's Habs dedicated product. Being a vintage memorabilia collector, I was hoping to get something along those lines! I ordered 3 boxes online since my LCS doesn't carry Leaf and PC product...

    2 Boxes of Leaf Ultimate

    Since my LCS cannot carry Leaf products anymore, thanks to Upper Deck threatening the distributors, I had to resort to buying some packs online. I received them today, and I ordered 3 more packs as soon as I was done opening them. LOVE everything that comes out of this product so far! Here are...

    Couldn't make it to the Expo, so the President came to me!

    Sorry for the lame title! The Friday morning of the Toronto Expo was also the release of a ton of new cards on Dr. Price's President's Choice website. I had to limit myself since the budget ain't what it used to be (I'm looking at you Cheevers buckle! Take a look at Chilychow's post if you're...

    Against my better judgement : 1 Tin of 16-17 The Cup!

    Hey guys! I haven't been active in the hobby in ther last months... A loss of interest, combined with the birth of my first child, made me take a step back from it. I still pass by my LCS once in a while though, and since I've cut my box breaking spendings so much in the last year I decided...

    1 Box of 16-17 Heroes & Prospects and 2x 14-15 SPGU!

    I went to the card shop for a break of the new Hertoes & Prospects. Unfortunately, they only had one box left so I went for it... Then I remembered the owner telling me a while ago about 14-15 SPGU being heavily discounted... So I decided to take the plunge and add 2 boxes to my order. Let's...

    A Gold addition that brings me closer to my ITG goal!

    I was pleasantly surprised recently when this card showed up on eBay. I went all out and won it : Maurice Richard 1/1! Single color swatch, but still... I've been going at this set since UM10 released... By "this set", I mean the GOLD parallel... With this one, I now stand at 14/18! *13/18...

    3 Packs of Leaf Masked Men!

    Hey guys! I haven't busted anything in a while, even less post any Show and Tell on here. But I was tempted by Masked Men, so I decided to open a couple packs. I'm glad I did! The product is sharp, the Masked Men inserts are beautiful in person, and I really enjoyed the variety! Here's what came...

    A Magnifique box of Leaf Ultimate!

    I had a couple boxes opened by my LCS owner at the Toronto Expo. Got a couple sweet cards, including a Red 1970s Decades with Orr (sold), a Mikita/Hull/Esposito dual patch Green /2 (also sold), and this sweet piece : However, I wasn't satisfied, as I didn't get a card with a real "wow"...

    Pierre Turgeon craziness keeps going!

    When ITGU was released, some of us were really surprised by the amounts some of the Pierre Turgeon cards were going for. Well, looks like the trend keeps going with Ultimate! https://www.ebay.ca/itm/112202804312

    The cornerstone to my Hanifin PC has arrived!

    I've half-seriously been collecting Noah Hanifin throughout the year. I picked Carolina in a bunch of group breaks, sniped a couple cards that I liked on eBay.. Missed on all of the 1/1s since I wasn't going super hardcore for them... Then this card popped on eBay, and I went all the way for...

    2 Boxes of Leaf Genesis! And one SPA!

    So Leaf Genesis was released a couple days ago, and I have yet to see a single break posted on the boards. So I went ahead and tried my luck with a couple boxes. I gotta say I was a little worried when I saw the checklist. As much as I really like the vintage content of the product, the rest of...
