So, I have been having a bit of a rough time lately due to injury amongst other things!
I was driving in to work this morning and decided to check the PO Box on the way in. Glad I did!
First up, a few random PC pickups
Superscribe Auto chase:
Kawhi pickup:
This is a mini card from Goodwins, about half the size of a normal card.
This bad boy came from a trade with a guy in California:
Disappointed that the auto isn't clean, but most of the ones on eBay are the same, so I guess it is about as good as they get?
For those that are interested, I am currently at 25 (plus 2 incoming) Kawhi cards including the only Panini 1/1, 9 Autos (plus 1 incoming) and every card from Retro and SP Authentic.
Next up, some may have seen this before?? I thought it was cool, so I jumped at a chance to include this in my 'NBA Greats' PC
Hakeem Limited On Card auto:
There was a thread about this card a while back which I remembered when I saw this one. Her is the back of the card:
Double auto error! haha. I checked the last one that was posted and it is a different number. There was some speculation that the auto was faked because of the lack of the #34 on the back, but this one came straight from Panini as a redemption, so it was The Dream's error, not a faker! haha
This one is a pretty cool result for me too. I was negotiating a trade with a guy in California for this card and he was only a new member that had only 4 FB, yet he refused to send first, which of course made alarm bells ring. I don't know why, but I decided to just give it a go, partly because the trade was in my favour! lol
Anyway, today it arrived, safe and sound, and in GREAT condition!:
Julius Erving Panini's Choice GOLD number 4/5
Scan looked terrible, changed to photo. These look sweet in hand!
But the 2 packages that really made my day were both surprises that just blew my mind. You will see why.
After a conversation with a member on here about a card of theirs, I tried to help him out with it, but was not successful, unfortunately. But, that didn't stop him from sending this to me anyway, as a gift!
Thanks Ang! You are a real gentleman and I won't forget that!
And the next one, well, let's just say it is the card that haunted me the most!
It has been available on OCT 3 times that I know of. All 3 times were just at the worst possible time for me to pick it up. I tried to round up some $$ at these times to grab it, but wasn't fast enough! haha
I have watched it pop its head up and down regularly as if to remind me about it! hah
And, all of a sudden, with no warning, I get a package in the post this morning......
Ridiculous hey!! Our resident Kiwi (Matt) has sent it over to me without even telling me about it!![Hearts :hearts: :hearts:](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/hearts.gif)

<<<<yeah I know, he is a dude and I just admitted I love him, you would too if you saw the card in hand! ![Wink ;) ;)](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png)
Technically, if you go by the checklist, I already have this card. But, this one was one that I really wanted because it contained the Spur patch from the white home jersey, to match this one:
Seriously Matty, thanks mate! Be remember to watch behind you and duck when the boomerang comes! haha![Wink ;) ;)](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png)
