Hope all you fellow collectors are doing well & hope the hobby Isn't killing your pockets TOO badly !

It's been about a year since my last mailday. So, I thought I'd share what I have been up to ...

A year ago I was left with my orange Phoenix Suns, Steve Nash jersey & my Jordan / Malone card ...





... That's all I had for months & months. Then I slowly bought just a few things ...







... So then after those, I saved for quite a long time and was able to buy this (straight from MeiGray) ...









... Never thought I'd get to purchase a game worn Celtics KG jersey. I think I did It at the right time too, with KG being pretty old now. It was from November 23rd, 2012. OKC @ Boston. (Boston won 108-100) KG played 32 minutes. 18 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists & 1 steal. ... In order to get that KG jersey, boy I let SOO many things pass me by. That was rough ! But It was totally worth It. Very happy with my collection and I hope to keep It all for a long time !

Thanks for lookin' fellas ! - Rob

Great looking KG Jersey! The Kobe tag is sweet to say the least!

Father time Is basically joggin right beside KG at this point ! I love KG and I hope he plays for as long as he possibly can & retires In Boston where he belongs (with the truth!) ... But I had to get a KG jersey while I still could, he'll be outta the league soon (along with SO many others) It'll be krazy. ... But hey he's still playin good ! ... Just old !

I so don't wanna think about it! I've been able to see KG play for almost as long as I've followed basketball, not looking forward to having to watch DVD games!

Have you tried it on? Looks loooooong. I'd be rocking it if I was 6'5

Yeah man, KG, Truth, Kobe, Duncan, Ginobili, Nash, Kidd, Ray Allen, Dirk, Vince Carter, Gasol, Grant Hill, Billups and who ever else ... It'll be so krazy. A complete young man's league for the most part. Gonna miss those guys !

Haven't tried It on ! Last one to wear It was KG ! ... I'm 6'1, It would go past my knees probably !

Finally got that KG, huh. Nice one and a great individual game as well.
Can't believe it's been a year since you got that Nash, has it really been that long.

Yep finally got It. Didn't think I'd ever be able to afford one ! ... Had to get It while I had the chance ! About a year since the Nash jersey, It sure did fly by quickly. I only bought 3 cards In that amount of time. Which Is so krazy. I used to buy ALL the time. Patience Is a virtue though, right ? ... I'd really only like one other jersey (that I've had before) ... Ginobiliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ! ... But it'll be SOME TIME before that happens. I gotta save my money up ... These things are way too expensive.

I know right ? I've already had a Grant Hill jersey. Los Suns 2009-10 from the Playoffs (Sold It off to help pay for the Nash) ... See I just don't think I'd be able to replace that jersey. Maybe one day, but not right now.
