This is it! After half a year of saving, searching, and waiting for grading returns I've finally shipped my COMC inventory. It's not massive and there aren't many super jaw-dropping hits, but I'm pretty happy with the collection Thanks to all of the sellers across COMC, eBay and points beyond for helping me with this!
Erving Action packed set - I picked up one of these cards from my LCS back in the boom of the early/mid 90's and loved the design and the raised card stock. It spurred my interest in Dr J and I've now picked up the whole base set
Some rainbow goodness of the Doctor, front and back
Carter and Kidd in the mix now. The 2-colour Cut Above is /500, Carter/Kidd is /250, and the Supreme Showcase is 1/10. Thanks to parra lettics and his killer range on COMC for the Kidd Immaculate too!
Kobe, Lebron, and TMac, some nice triple threads
A triple of Wilt/Shaq/Ming now, numbered 9/9
Something oddball, some lenticular cards of Dr. J and Wilt from the '98 Topps Golden Greats set. (They don't scan well but look good in hand)
More assorted Doctor - love the colours on the Prizm, and the Century Legends with Jordan has Dr J on the back
Limited Spotlight Gold Erving /25
Some more game-used Doctor now from the Ultimate Victory set, numbered to 100
An Erving auto /10!
A quick break from basketball now with some boxing legends - an on-card auto of Iron Mike and some fight-worn memorabilia (trunks from the Bonavena match) of Muhammad Ali numbered to 5
An early Jordan card fresh from grading Let down a little by surface condition, but nice to have a Star card authenticated
And now the nicest addition to the set - I've wanted it since I first knew it existed, then waited a while longer to get it graded....some game-used Wilt goodness /100!
What a mailday! And I am a huge fan of Mike Tyson too, went to see him speak at a Brisbane event and got to meet and have a chat with him, he's from Brooklyn and I asked him what he thought of the new Brooklyn Nets and their inaugral season, he basically said he was happy that guys like Jay-Z believing in and investing in a NBA team in his hometown. He's had a lot of bad rap but he's a down to earth guy, not arrogant at all. Got a photo with him and had him sign a pair of boxing shoes and a 16x20. Love the card and the Ali worn shorts card, awesome!
