Oky doky, maildays are a bit few and far between now that I've stopped buying… hehe… but I wanted a few 'firsts' before I really stopped.
So, here is my first 99-00 Star Rubies (IMO the nicest design of them):
(sorry Branko if you need this..!)
My first ever Co-signers auto, from the first ever year of them (and first Hakeem auto to boot, plus I always liked Hardaway)
My first ever original PMG:
My first true 1/1 letter patch (wanted one of these for AGES and I really like the 06-07 design):
..and my second - though this one is auto'd… UD Black rookie premiere worn letter (these are rare and people never seem to know what they've got):
And then a couple of other things just because…
Yao SPx auto jersey
And a nice Jordan auto jersey that I've been interested in for a while
as usual a big thanks to Shawn Bradley Fan for his help.
Oh and another Tag Team I needed. Saw this on Blowout and have been trying to get hold of the guy since September (firstly through Andrew and then I signed up myself). After a few messages and a bit of inactivity by him all of a sudden one day he replied, gave me a price, I paid and then it arrived. Big relief as this one was previously lost in the mail and I hadn't seen another one other than his…
I'm awaiting the Nets one from ebay which leaves me only needing FOUR
Your "final" maildays G are turning into a John Farnham final farewell tour!!
Some knockout stuff there, love the co-signers and those 06/07 ultimate autos are a very nice design....I've thought of shooting for the set of those but with 50-odd in the set there are a fair few meh players in there - good to see you bag the very best one.
You are right with the letter patches it is hard to pick what is match worn and what is a production patch.
Nice pick ups G, good to see you got the quad finally. I can't believe you're only 4 away now farken huge effort man
Loving the MJ, Star Rubies and PMG too. Still havn't got around to getting one just to see what they look like in hand. Maybe the MJ will end up in my possession one day
I thought that also up untill a couple of months back when i seen a Green Rodman that the seller had taken a nice pic of. I can see why they are so popular, card company's need to bring back technology like this on cards again i reckon
i swear i cant pick a favorite from the bunch, each card is better than the last . i guess i would have to choose the MJ, just cos its MJ . and ur comment "these are rare and people never seem to know what they've got" regarding the beasley is 100% on the money. its technicaly a 1/1 just like the Amare BTL u have there (sweet pickup too, was waiting for that to be revealed ). Divac rubies is very nice too
ps. always a fan of hakeem and tim hardaway, nice dual
Huge effort on the tag team quads! Liking the co-signers - two great players, two nice sigs and on card too! I'ma big letterman fan and the MJ is the pride of the fleet! Your final maildays are getting better and better! ....and yes, that is a sh!tload of coin to be spending! All good things in moderation mate, no need to go cold turkey though! Ween yourself off gently - start with cutting back to a few patches per day! *badoom tish*
