As you all know, Matt (v00d00), Damian (thefranchise) and I had our own table at Frank and Sons yesterday. I had a GREAT time there. I've met Matt before, and as always he's a great guy; this is his third time driving me everywhere. It was my first time meeting Damian in person, and he's also a class-act. Jonathan (Battie4) stopped by, and although is a very very cool guy, I gotta ask him: What were you doing at a card show with NO money and NO cards?? :p Hehe, I guess he came just to see us. How cool.

Anyways, now it's time to see the cards! :)

Thia Spudd Webb was part of a trade I had going with Damian, and he gave me the Andre Miller for free! How cool is that!:

These cards I got in trades with Matt. He gave me deals on all of them, and gave me the Forte RC and Andre Miller auto for free! I'm gonna give the Forte to Derek (BravesFan) since he collects Forte (for what reason none of us know). :) I've been wanting that Jaric/Manu dual auto FOREVER now, and he gave me a sweet deal on it. Last night was the first time I had EVER seen ANY white refractors, and for it to be a Jaric refractor...well let's just say I couldn't pass it up. Matt didn't make it hard 'cause he gave me some pretty sweet deals. And look at that Stockton! That's almost gradeable material right there:

Now for the cards I pulled out of boxes at Frank and Sons. I bought three boxes; two Fleer Greats of the Game for $37 each, and one Skybox L.E. for what I think was $42. I wasn't really happy with my L.E. pulls, although the Yao Ming is /50 and the J.R. Smith is /99:

These are the GOTG pulls. I pulled the Isiah, Vince, and Bobby Knight all in the same Box:

Now for my card show pick-ups! The Outlaw is for Bargey:

And you wanna know what the most amazing thing about the card show was? PEOPLE BUY BASE CARDS!! I was selling 'em like hot cakes for $0.05 a piece. As I'm watching 'em pick out their cards, I'm thinking to myself, "Wow, and before I couldn't even GIVE them away!" Hehe. Yeeeeeah.

Now for my mailday. Let me tell you: Bostoncorn is a class-act among class-acts. He did his best to get my cards to me before the show, but couldn't do to a family emergency. These cards arrived the day of the show, but I was already long gone. He sent express and paid over $16 to ship 'em. I will always remember that, Bostoncorn. Your effort is very much appreciated, and shows what type of guy you really are. Here's what he sent me:

So yeah, after a long day yesterday, my stomach full of Burger King cheeseburgers (they gave me extra pickles but not extra mustard. The bastards!), I zonked out while watching SNL. Sorry I couldn't bring these scans to you sooner.

Edit: Bahahaha I must still be asleep; scanning the backs of my cards for ya:

Sounds like you had a great time, :)


I think it would be cool to meet HI members, but me being the only HI member in NE, kinda ruins it, lol
 
nice buys and pulls.....

i need the andre miller auto bad lmk what you need thanks alot
 
Yeah it was kinda stupid going to the show with no money but I got to meet some members and it was fun (that would prob be the first time I ever left F and S empty handed haha) but it was cool
 
That's awesome! Sounded like a blast!

Are the Walker, Thomas or Carter for trade?
 
next time we meet at Frank and Sons I will bring either cards or money or maybe both haha but next time Imma drive back up to LA instead of taking the train so I can bring my cards and stuff
 
Yeah man it was sooo funny. Damien was like, "Watch him pull a Larry Johnson," and just as he said that, not 10 seconds later, I pull a Larry Johnson GU. I gave it to Matt, though.
 
Awesome pulls, sounds like a good time. I need to go to one of the major shows here on the east coast in mass or ny, then ill have a post as full as yours :)

btw: Tell jaric not to get posterized anymore, its not good for his career ;)
 
Hey... Awesome Day Dana...., Glad you got the cards.... sorry I couldn't send any sooner
