Hey guys -
Just saying hi. My name is Ryan and im located in Canberra. Have been a collector from way back but took a long hiatus from cards. I had a pretty nice collection going when I decided to give up the game in favour of saving for a wedding and sold my whole collection. Had a fair few 03/04 Exquisites in there which im kicking myself about now - d'oh!! lol
A mate of mine has just started collecting seriously which has sparked my interest again. After opening my first pack in years at a local newsagent, I was instantly hooked again. lol
Anyways I used to collect Nets players - mainly Jason Kidd and Planinic but since my return im not really sure what im collecting anymore. Im just gonna pick up cards of anyone I think is playing well. Will pretty much be concentrating on Autos, patches and low numbered stuff. Will also be busting boxes when I have the cash. Since my return a month or so ago, I have ripped a couple of boxes of Reflections, Artifacts and Trilogy. Loved the Trilogy and I would say i'll have a few more boxes of that to bust in the next couple of weeks.
I was looking through the forums before joining and I gotta say how impressed I am with the quality of some of the collections here in Australia. Awesome to see that theres guys (and girls?) enjoying the hobby in Aus. Some of you have some insanely crazy cards.
I recognised a few names in the forums -
gemz - sure ive traded with him on beckett
Westriot - see his boxes on the bay all the time
scotte - who actually referred me to this site after speaking on beckett - thanks scotte. These forums look really nice.
Im sure theres others here i'll recognise and hopefully recognise me.
Anyways - Ive had many trades on beckett and TR forums but I understand im new here and will be starting from scratch. Looking forward to getting to know you all and orgainsing some trades/sales.
Kind regards
