Better late than never. 2011 goal now completed.

Yes, this is the infamous card from;


http://www.ozcardtrader.com.au/comm...raiser-closed-details-in-the-1st-post.116690/

I contacted the owner through Terry and organised a deal that he was happy with.






As Mike would say, enjoy my happiness

Also picked up this because I thought it was a bargain

And this which I thought was underpriced, and is now in my sale thread, NOT IN A HURRY TO SELL lol, love this set.








This is a terrible photo, I suck at photography








The Y is solid gold

TFL as usual

Solid gold you mean?

Good to see the Logoman in safe hands

 

[bjs127]

Love that Kobe "Y", I was watching a couple of the Magic Johnsons and was tempted but just not flush enough with casht o pull the trigger.

Great mailday!!!

Thanks Brad!
And stop tempting me with your sale threads, trying not to buy stuff, I've already overspent, got a nice dream card incoming.....

You lucky, lucky man!

2 super Garnetts there, I think I had my eyes on that Letterman as well. Glad to see it in an Aussie collection

Did I forget to mention you get 20% off all my prices in my sale thread if you have "on the road again" written under your username?

Thanks Glenn! You mean the KG yeah?
Couldn't leave it sitting there all alone for like $35 or whatever it was now could I???

Yeah mate, the KG. I was very tempted by it, however passed it up for a different variation from the set:

Heaps of variations hey! That is a better bargain than mine, nice one!!

So happy that you completed your goal mate. It's still my dream to own a logoman....One day...

Thanks Jack!
There were a couple of nice 1/1 versions but my offers were never accepted. This one may be higher numbered but I'm happy it's a Celtics card (first championship) even though it most likely is a TWolves Logo, love it.
Good luck on the hunt, if it's any player, you can get them for like $60-80, but if it's PC player who happens to be more in demand then yeah, into the hundreds you go!

TBH mate not really fussed on the player. But I do want it to be somebody who is renowned for defense. Love me a good shot blocker. I also completed one of my goals this year thanks to a certain member on here. Never did I think i'd own a Jordan auto.

THATS AWESOME!!! Nice Work Matt!

 

[Strop]

Wow Matt. Every time I see your maildays it's like seeing a whole new side of the hobby. I have never seen the majority of the cards you get! I missed the whole Topps stuff while away from the hobby. They are awesome, great pickups mate

Thanks Clay! Love 07-08 Letterman stuff! You can get some absolute brutal boxes (redemptions) but hey, it is worth a shot, much like (but better than) 08-09 SKybox.
Boxes were originally around $175 but now around 400.

cheers Terry and thanks for your help!

 

[WhiteyTheCelticsFan]

Probably the best mailday that didn't include an auto. Well Done Matt!

 

[Strop]
