Allllmighty GREEN-ness, some Killer Kobe MOJO, & a couple other nice pickups

hi guys

havent done a mailday in yonks now. been so busy though its not funny . so without further ado, heres the nicer cards that ive been fortunate enough to buy/trade for. and the last Kobe from the new Crown Royale was pulled a couple days ago in a group case-bust with the great folk at CherryCollectables. you get randomised a spot in a 2-round Team selection draw, and U pick 1 team for each round. From the Round 1 draw, i was really lucky to get "Selection 1", and immeditly i picked the LA Lakers . my 2nd "team selection" landed me 2nd last, & so went with the Bobcats (was outta BobCats or Wizards). then ALL cards that are busted in the 2 teams u choose, U keep . got a few really sweet Kobe Jerseys. nice RC AU, Kobe inserts, a nast Gasol Patch, etc. Pics below anyways.

special shout out the following great members, and more importantly Legends ! crackberry, CherryCollectables, izy, and adhunt.


Ok mailday. first up, some PMG Greens! instead of putting each one up indivdually, I just cut & paste smaller scale ones to make the 1 pic. Being there are 100 cards in each set (Red and Green), the set chase status as of this moment and cards in-hand is 50/100 on the GREEN which are #ed/10, and 80/100 on the RED #ed/40 parallels. really happy.

Cracking lot of cards there mate! The set is coming along very nicely mate, hope you can continue knocking them out, nice plate and sweet superstar autos! But I really like those Ultimate Six cards, some awsome patches on those!

Love those majestic sigs! Great pickups Steve!

You know I've got love for the GREENS
Also love those Chronology autos, very nice champ

man i love those six patch cards, especially the knicks one, looks killer!!

That is one almighty load of green there mate
Crown Royale is a classy looking product, bet it looks good in hand.
Awesome mailday there mate.

Nice Steve-o, doing a great job of those greens. Can't help but think you're going to need to grab a Jordan soon or you may never seen them again...

great pick ups bro...nice lbj chronology

some sick sick additions there buddy. Well done on all the pick ups. Especially the Kobe auto from the break. That must have been a bonus!

Going great with the pmg set chase Steve, well done, nice additions too man I like the LBJ Chrono auto and the Kobe Auto

Cracker mailday Steve, noticed the 08-09 PMG's are getting expensive, so you've done very well. Really like both lebrons and the Kobe is a great pull, congrats

Damn Steveo nice mailday mate! Got a bit of everything in here, love the superstar auto's and the greens

sweet pick ups steveo!!!!

Love the greens - but a beautiful Lebron auto that Chronology one. If I had the $$ to chase one LBJ auto I reckon that'd be it.

The Bron chrno Is a cracker Steve an amazing card!

Huge lot of greens steve! Love it mate! Sick looking kobe auto also!

cheers brother . the Ultimate Six patch cards are insane i know . they are extremly THICK aswell. like 180pt thickness. I think they are even bigger (or nearly the same) as the 07-08 SWEET SPOT Autos. freaked out when i saw how thick they are . understandable too though. thnx branko, take it easy champ

thnx heaps G, appreciated heaps mate . and yeh man i am hanging to get me on of the Green PMG jordans. i am not in too big a hurry for one bro. Even if it takes me 3 years+ to complete the set, im not fussed dude . maybe they will go down a bit by then too . that GREEN MJ that was on ebay that u questioned if i was the person who got it (since the seller ended the auction early), nah mate i didnt get it. AND i think the seller has agreed with a buyer at a price of $2,500usd. Cos he ended the listing and then today re-listed it with starting bid of $2,4999usd. So i think the bloke who has agreed to buy it is gonna place 1 bid on it, then i think the seller is gonna end the listing and "award it to the person who is currently the highest bidder" (which will be $2.5K). I would rather put my money together and concentrate on getting the ORIGINAL PMG GREEN MJ from 97-98. our Aussie mate has one newly listed, heres the link:

97/98 Precious Metal GEMS GREEN #d/10 Michael Jordan - eBay (item 270615934412 end time Aug-10-10 20:48:44 PDT)

current bid at $4,450usd, and its still got just over 9 days till listing end. I might even see if i can put together about $8,000usd for the Green MJ and have a serious crack at it. what do u reckon ?

cheers for the post mate. and yeh man the PMG's are getting expensive. honestly though, there are a select few naive people who are classing these 08-09 PMG cards to the ORIGINAL 96-97 PMG's. yeh in 12 years time, fair enough. but not NOW. and so even the reds they are boosting the prices there (avergae card was selling for $8usd mark, now is selling for $25usd). what i hate the most is when i get told "look i have an offer of $XX amount from another intersted buyer, so unless U beat that I really wont be able to do much else." yet 2 weeks pass and the seller still has the card . ive been hearing nearly every tactic in the book when im being offered PMG's to buy . kidding on that last sentence, but it is happening and im sure u know what i mean . cheers mate

thnx for the post back nick . if i was to concentrate on the PMG MJ, i would probably delv into my life savings to pay for it. just so i dont have to give up any of my current MJ autos or highenders. But anyway besides that nick, i just found out by Graeme (hairyAF) that the sellers already had offers of like $17,000usd and similar!!! so there goes my plan of putting up $8,000usd as my bid. so as quick as the idea of bidding on the card came up, is as quick as it was knocked down . mate u wouldve thought $8K for an insert from 97 #ed/10 would be unvbeliveable. try DOUBLE that AND THEN SOME more like it. dayyyyyng.
