2017 - My Top 9 pickups of Knicks #9 Mr Kyle O'Quinn

[GarnettFan4Life]

Had a good lot of like 50 cards from my COMC inventory arrive before the new year so it was a great way to finish off 2017 with a few new additions that were relatively hard to find!


Was unsure on whether I was going to bid on this given the Panini Replay farce etc etc but decided to given how cheap it went and then I got it slabbed to authenticate.

My 23rd addition to the Immaculate /75 chase, getting so boringly repetitive looking for these online and not finding any

A Prizm parallel 11th of 14 needed. Ridiculous but shiny and something to search for when the Immaculate comes up 0 results.....Need the /10, /5 and /1.

A rarely seen Marquee RC Auto. Sticker not centered the best so if I ever see another I may upgrade

What is it with Marquee? The leather parallel, could never find one and when I came across on beckett marketplace I had to grab it while I was waiting to send the bulk lot back to AUS from COMC.

Jersey numbered RPA - again, wasn't going to search every rookie year card (excl 1/1's) but boredom got the better of me and coming across the jersey numbered RPA on ebay was just a nice bonus.

Red /25 version I once had before and sold off, now one back in the collection.

Waited and waited for some new Knicks stuff to come out and Immaculate didn't disappoint (apart from most of the cards I've seen from the /13 version having an "E" in the window....smh

And my favourite pickup for 2017, bonus being jersey numbered, Immaculate Jumbo patch /9

Honourable mention to the /5 Green Donruss auto I picked up at a bargain price.

Great year overall!

2018 goals include a logoman and 2020 goals include getting to a NBA game to see my dude play. Missed KG's career so hope to see some of Mr Kyle O'Quinn and by then the coaches would've wised up and giving him more time so it will be worth it lol


Thanks as always for looking and commenting! Happy New Year!

Thanks mate yeah nothing interests me on the KG front still so no new additions. Too much Panini stuff maybe, maybe that he’s not playing anymore, makes me respect the guys (like yourself) who continue to collect long after a player retires and there’s not much if any product released featuring them. I’m sure I’ll come back around and then just go for his rookie year stuff again and maybe Championship year product. Not rushing it!

That is a great haul. Those immaculate patches are amazing.

Nice stuff man! Interesting to see the two marquee additions in there - but that's what separates the true PC guys from the rest!

Thanks Skip! Yeah not necessarily rare ones if the player is more popular and people list them on eBay consistently because it’s worth their while, but O’Quinn only being a couple of dollars, one a redemption and many going in peoples bargain bins or actual bins lol it makes them seemingly harder to come across! The Marquee Leather rc I got from Beckett, sent to COMC, processing fees there are increasing, then sent back to Aus with my lot. It’s had a journey!

The irony being that the postage and possibly the processing fees being worth more than the card itself! #KOQfan4life
