First S&T of 2018

[cburt]

Hello guy's. I seem to always be waiting for something to roll in, mail-wise, so rather than letting things pile up too much I'm excited to show some of my pickups so far this year. I've got traders and PC to show. With the traders, since I have bought a ton so far, I will post up my top ten favorite pickups. Most are lower end, but fun and interesting cards, imho. Sometimes even the low-end deserve their day in the sun. Then after that I'll roll out the PC acquisitions. So enjoy the show. Comments always welcome!

10: 2006-07 Upper Deck Trilogy Honorary Swatches #HSCN Cam Neely SP

That is awesome show! My favourite is that Samsonov itg action jersey those bronze are really hard to come by. I broke a case of it and didn’t pull one

Some beauties especially the Matthews. I have to agree with nhlderek the Samsonov is awesome and hard to find.

Never knew that Neely was a SP. Nice haul and of coarse the Matthews is the star.

Congrats

Thanks! You're right they are quite rare. Honestly for me, I just like the look of it. I knew it was worthy of a S&T.

Nice stuff Collin,

Thanks for the post!

Thanks for the comments!

Nice to see a lot of appreciation for the Samsonov. It is a neat set and you hardly ever see ANY of the bronze anywhere. Thanks!

Nice stuff! Thanks for sharing!

You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed the show.

Thanks Aaron! Everyone always seems to love a Mathews YG, but the Jagr's are pretty cool. Apart from the copies I have, I have never seen any of these. Must be pretty rare. Happy to have them.

Never knew that Neely was a SP. Nice haul and of coarse the Matthews is the star.

Congrats

Thanks Dean. Glad you enjoyed the show. Glad to see the Mathews continues to be a fan favorite. I thought the Neely was cool too. Come to think of it, I think someday I will need to grab a copy of his rookie card again. I had one back in the day.

Nice selection of random pieces Collin. My favorites are the Jagr twins up there. Thanks for putting together such a neat post!

Thanks Jeremy! Glad you enjoyed the show and especially the Jagr's. You seldom see the rarer serial numbered refractors like that. Must be locked away in PC's or possibly a few are still in boxes somewhere.
