Verified Trader,
Turns out my last S&T was on March 19th, during the first week of our COVID-19 shutdown. Well, it seems I've accumulated a bunch of Flames pick-ups during that time, here goes:
Let’s start with some jumbos – I will admit when I traded for these 1997-98 Beehives, I had no idea they were so big! And I originally wasn’t collecting Jumbo YG’s, but I got these for cheap so I figured I’d pick them up as part of the YG rainbows.
Next, a few assorted #’d/parallels. I don’t know much about the 20th Anniversary UD French Buyback, but it was a cheap pick-up.
Assorted Jersey & Patch cards: The 2012-13 Iginla Artifacts was in a deal with Julian (myriadlim).
Some Kippers, including some ITG Ultimate Memorabilia – the first cards I’ve picked up from these sets. The Sharks Tandem was an ebay pickup from Brownbullhead – I think its neat that the back actually states the Kiprusoff swatch was from a Kentucky Throroughblades jersey.
A few Fleury’s – the SPGU were also from myriadlim.
Exclusives – somehow found a bunch more of these at reasonable prices. The Rittich is cool given I was at the game.
An Exclusives YG, and a couple HG from a Facebook deal
A couple low #’d Cup RC’s
I finally found a Corban Knight OPC Red RC to go with his brothers, now just need a blank back.
Now the Top 3:
#3 2011-12 SP Game Used Authentic Fabrics Fives Patches Jarome Iginla/Miikka Kiprusoff/Jay Bouwmeester/Rene Bourque/Olli Jokinen #2/7
This wasn’t something I was chasing, but when I saw this pop up on Tukkatime’s sale post, I remembered the quote from the guys on American Pickers – “The time to buy it is when you see it!”
#2 2013-14 ICE RC/99 Sean Monahan
This is my 5th ICE RC /99 – just the Johnny Hockey left to go (that one might be awhile). Picked up via trade with rookiegirl13.
#1 2012-13 Upper Deck Young Guns Exclusives Spectrum /10 Sven Baertschi BGS 9.5
This is the 4th YG /10 I’ve been able to land, but the best player so far of the 4. And BGS 9.5 to boot. Via FB purchase.
Bonus: A red jersey but obviously not a Flame – I was able to pick up one of these beauts from our favourite local Dr. Not a core PC piece necessarily, but too cool to pass up!
Thanks for looking.
