Hit a yard sale and got caught in a Weber

[penguinpr]

Normally I don't expect much when I see cards at a yard sale, but a local collector was getting rid of some stuff and I scooped some solid cards. Spent a grand total of $25 and came away with some good trade bait and additions to the collection.

To start, I grabbed over 500 base cards from recent years with stars mixed in. Mostly 05-06 sets, but there were also some base/rookie sps in there which was a plus!

Now to the okay stuff. All FT unless noted...

I'd say you did alright for 25 bucks!

If they run the sale again tomorrow, there are a couple more things I might scoop. If not, I'm still well ahead of the game...

 

[TJMichalak]

check my bucket for the weber SP auth

 

[jetsman]

What do you expect for someone in Belleville? You probably could've offered magic beans and got all those.

 

[wildfan1833]

Wow that sounds like one heck of a deal you got

 

[leafs4_cup]

Damn, and the only thing I have found at garage sales is Pro Set.

They decided to have the yard sale for another day and I scooped a binder full of 200+ rookies from 01-02 to 06-07 with about 11 memorabilia cards and three certified autos for $30. Also snagged some more base and a SPx Bobby Ryan AU/JSY RC. Spent $40 total today and will have lots of extra traders once I go through the binder.

 

[wwjd10]

All that for $65! Thats a great deal!
