    Lane Hutson SP Game Used True RC

    I think you're mistaking. When people talk about "True RC" - that term applies to any RC, not just this set. For example, a "Young Guns" is a "True RC" - but Silver Foils, Rainbow Foils, Exclusives, High Gloss, Outburst (etc, etc) are not. The Cup ARPs /249 (or /99 for the rare ones) are the...

    Lane Hutson SP Game Used True RC

    Except they changed that this year. Have a look at the checklist: https://www.beckett.com/news/2024-25-sp-game-used-hockey-cards/ The base cards are not numbered. It's the Rainbow parallels that are #ed to a player's jersey. What you're saying has been true for over a decade (I think) - but UD...

    Lane Hutson SP Game Used True RC

    No idea what these cards would go for. I have thought, for years, that SPGU Rookies were some of the most under-appreciated RCs in the hobby. I will mention though, that UD re-configured the set this year (and not in a good way, IMO). What you have is not the "True RC". It's the Rainbow...

    Question about vintage cards

    It sounds like you might be doing something similar to what I've done, and that's chasing RCs of players who played for a specific team (in my case, it was the Oilers). (here's one of my threads, for reference)...

    Anyone Drop Off Cards @ The Expo For COMC?

    Yeah, it's super easy. I've always filled out the online form / printed the QR code (and stuck it to the box) before going to the Expo, but you can do it there. Basically, you submit it online (i.e. I will be sending in 500 cards). Pick your level of service (I've only ever done basic). Looking...

    Card Organization.

    I have several "collections" within my overall 'collection'. Ranford Stuff - Most of the base / inserts / parallels (90s cards mostly I'm talking about, some modern) is in a binder, in chronological order (and sets are alphabetical within their year). Basically, if you looked at a player...

    Surprise Mailday! Having friends in this hobby is awesome

    This won't be a super long post, but I really need to thank a couple of members on here. Yesterday, I grab the mail. There's what is obviously a card(s) in a bubble mailer - but I'm not expecting anything, so I'm a little confused. I open it up, and what do I find? THIS: What do we have...

    Slapshot Autographs: 59 & Counting

    I've mentioned this collection of mine plenty of times in passing. I've posted before with a lot of other cards, but it's been a long time since I posted pics of my Slapshot collection. This has been a big project for me over the last couple of years, and I'm still trying to grow it! This is...

    Two boxes of President's Choice In The Crease, with a Shield!

    I've seen lots of this stuff, and IMO the quality of the memorabilia, and the price point - it was too good not to give it a try. Busted two boxes, and I'm really happy with the results: The Reimer is obviously the highlight, but the Khabibulin is one that's going to fit nicely into my...

    All Time Oilers Collection Part 8: 2000-01 through 2003-04

    That fun (while it lasted) playoff run had me thinking I hadn't done another installment of my all-time Oilers collection in a LONG time. What to do about that? Here's Part 8! The Early 2000s Oilers were good teams, but not really remarkable. Of the four seasons mentioned here, they'd make the...

    Three more Ranfords to end off 2021

    I'm guilty of not showing off my pickups as I get them. Usually just show off the really big stuff. All three of these cards came to me via eBay over the last 6 weeks (or so) of 2021 - and I think all would have gotten their own thread had they been the only nice card I added during that strech...

    Nice add for the 1994-95 Score Master Collection: Dallas Stars Sheet

    I've been searching for one of these for quite a few years. Oversized promo sheets like this are not something I typically get for myself - but I've been working on a master of set of 1994-95 Score for more than 25 years, and when I was made aware of these things existing, I decided I wanted...
