First Show & Tell since 2015 (White Whale)

[NeilCollector25]

Hey everyone,
Haven't posted since 2015, mainly because I'm a Chris Neil collector and once Panini stopped making cards my PC hit a wall. Also he retired after the 2016-17 season so I'm basically just down to a few white whales. So a little update I'm now at 260/277 not including 1/1's. I'll stop rambling, here's my few pickups over the last couple years, the big ones atleast.

Only non-Neil add, History of Hockey buy back 03-04 Vermette rookie emblem


Now for the Neil's.

A 3rd copy of the 2012-13 Panini Limited Emerald base /5


Vault 1/1 2001-02 itg bap tough customers jersey


A 3rd copy of the 2011-12 Dominion Strapping Lads fight strap /7


A couple more National Treasures plates


2015-16 UD High Gloss /10 and plate


Now the three big additions:
3) 2016-17 Clearcut leaders /10


2) 2007-08 High Gloss /10


1) 2001-02 BAP emerald /10


I never thought I'd own that emerald rookie but thanks to roaddogg1718 who picked it up for me, it is now one of my favourite cards.

Good to add a couple white whales and if anybody has any rare or nice Neilers feel free to DM me!

Great additions, that Emerald rookie looks real nice! Congrats on adding some of these whales from many years ago. It's always a great feeling!

What are the last 17 Neil non-1/1 cards you need ?

Wow that is a great show!! Those emeralds always looked great. Would be interesting to see your list of cards you need

Sweet rare pickups! It can be near impossible to find rare parallels of non-star players; I share that struggle, haha. Love those Vermette cards, too!

Nice! Small Want List. Best of luck with tracking these down.

There is also a 12-13 Panini Certified Printing Plate on COMC right now, I'd snatch it up quick before the price gets jacked WAY up (this certain seller who shall-not-be-named is notorious for doing this when they know there is a collector who PC's that player)
