Arrrgghhhh, techonology I tell ya.....

[buyingstuffformikelee]

Hiya Guys and gals,


How we all doing today? Hope all is well with you all.


Just enjoying the rest of my loooonngggg weekend down here in OZ. And boy did I need it! Work has been a draaggggg indeed, and being at home is the only piece I get to have.
But that all went pear shaped a week ago, when my PC refused to start! Shock horror indeed.
Which just did not make my birthday a fun time at all, but what can you do?


And let me make this clear to you all, BACK UP your stuff before it's too late! Seriously, there is no worser feeling to get back home, switch on your pc, and it refuses to start, no matter what you do. It got to the point where I'm just talking to the darn thing, to start once more, so I can get stuff off it and backed up.
All those important files, those millions, and millions of scans, pics and all sorts of stuff that you spent hours, days and weeks and months to do all trapped inside and non-accessible.


But be that as it may, now with my stuff backed up in 3 places.....


and with my PC now on it's last legs.... I'm hoping it will survive just a tad longer so I can make a post :-D Ha ha ha ha


Alrighty, lecture time is over for me and lets get to the cards!


Alrighty, some new additions for me:



Sene Exquisite RC Auto Patchy

Max 3 colour

Bill Sharman Legendary Signatures Auto

Doug Collins - Greats of the Game Auto

The letterman chase continues along nicely:


Hasheem Thabeet RC Auto Letterman "A"

Brandon Jennings RC Auto Letterman "N"

And the "S"


Brandon Jennings RC Auto Letterman "S"

Back to Exquisite land now


Julian Wright RC Auto Patch - Exclusives #32

Auto Patchy goodness time


A few more absolutely gorgeous additions arrived, and when you "seeeeee", I'm sure you will agree.


When it comes to these cards, my scanner sucks. Just something about the 03-04 design, my scanner just doesn't like.
Been told it's because it doesn't scan "depth" well at all. So, until I get this new PC of mine and possbily a new scanner, they just won't show any better for me.


Mr Jerry Wesssttttttt Auto Patch

I can just feel the "oldness" in the patch here:

So pretty:

Max 3 colours

Next up, I was so unsure on whether to drop any more crazy coin on an Nashy item.
Seeing as my "side pc" has grown to very, well, not so small side pc lengths.
But boy oh boy, you decide....



Nashy Auto Patch















5 colour, with star patchy goodness!

Uummmmm, yummy?

Next up, I picked up this beauty, and my lovely scanner will show you it in all it's glory:

No, please do not adjust your screens, it's bad I know Ha ha ha



But, it's a beauty, 1 of 10 baby!!!!!

Enjoy my happiness before my PC dies!


Mike.

WOW bro...Do you collect them letterman cards where you have Thabeet and Jennings?
and How many Saer/Mohammed Sene cards do you have now???

 

[OutlawNinja]

Sorry to hear about the computer mate
I bought an external HDD for mine last week ... think I could get it working
Turns out it only works with 32bit windows 7 ... not the 64 bit version I am running ... Gotta love technology.

Very nice pickups there

 

[Matt26]

Very nice Mike!!!!

 

[aussiemjfreak]

Stunning Nash patch/auto Mike! I loveeeee All Star Patches! All round great pickups as usual mate!

 

[buyingstuffformikelee]

JohnC777 - Thanks
Yeah man, many on here know, I do collect them lettermans, and am crazy for them. I'm trying to do the Chronology set (don't even ask me why) and maybe one day I will get there.

If you want to see how crazy I am, take a look here on this link:

HobbyKings.com :: View topic - 67 - A legend chalked down, Cowens - Updated 02/04/2010


On Sene, I don't actually count, but looking at my items, I have about 580 odd now.


OutlawNinja - Gee whiz, I didn't even know there was issues like that!
I am really outta touch in PC world now, and it was only when my PC scared the life out of me, that I started reading up on them again and trying to piece together a new one for me to use.
Thanks for the comments


Matt26 - Thanks Matey, I know you would approve


aussiemjfreak - Thanks champion
Yeah, the patch is something indeed, one of my best in my collection, a close second to my Noble Name plates one

 

[JohnC777]

Thast sick man...No wonder Iv have not seen many of them..Whats with rondos he didnt sign on the letter he signed on the card thats sorta kool tho.I swear you have the whole 99 of the Sene lettermans.

 

[buyingstuffformikelee]

JohnC777 - Thanks
Yeah, Rondo did the "smart" thing Ha ha ha ha
But seriously, his auto would have looked shocking on the letter to be honest. It just adds to the appeal I guess, an odd item in the quest.

Ha ha ha Yeah, I got a nice haul of those Sene's.
Like I mentioned, no one collects him so it helps and some collectors have also been kind enough to pass on their Sene's to be once they saw what I was doing

 

[JohnC777]

Yeha congrats man...And to spell there names out as well.I have 1 of them Greg Oden /250 un signed.

 

[1711mark]

Nice mail day , like the jennings

 

[loafic]

that mail is plain insanity mikey!!!! incredible stuff

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

Awesome GOTG, is that on card?

SICK Jerry West!

AND more Letterman AU!!!

sweet

 

[kingjack]

The nash is crazy Mike awesome pick up!

 

[Moses]

Awesome Nash. Love the Cousy.

 

[Cobretti]

nice pickups mate. I was gonna collect brendon jennings, but decided I need to save money for a house haha.

Fleer Sets
MJ
and Video Games is killing me as it is.

 

[buyingstuffformikelee]

JohnC777 - Yeah man, don't even know why I attempted to try for the impossible set of all sets. But heck, at the time I had completed some serious sets indeed and wanted to take on the challenge as a final hurruh
Uuhhh, good ol Oden. Man, it's such a shame seeing him injured all the time, and wish he would get better soon and become a great player.


1711mark - Thanks man
Yeah, I'm digging this lettermans indeed, though, I wish his name was shorter! Ha ha ha


loafic - Thanks man, glad you enjoyed the view.


GarnettFan4Life - Thanks man, and it sure is
That's sort of half the reason I went after it to be honest.
Yeah, a well rounded mailday if i do say so myself.


kingjack - Thanks man
Yeah, I was torn in whether I wanted to shell out anymore $$$$ on a crazzzzyyy nash card. Or whether to wait for a lesser card with a lower patch type thing, but in the end, i caved! Seeing as I have a small side PC of his.


Moses - Thanks champion
Yeah, the Cousy I like indeed. Gold Graded cards really do it for me.


Cobretti - Thanks

Ha ha ha ha Hmmmmm, with those options, I think I like yours rather than pieces of cardboard with people's squiggles on them! Ha ha ha
But yes, Jennings is the go I reckon. Plus, some other rookies I have set my eyes on which I can see so much up-side potential next year for them.
