Welcome

This blog is about sports cards. I tend to only purchase cheap items so don't come hear expecting to see big money cards. My teams collections are Chicago White Sox and Michigan Wolverines. I also have a bunch of player collections.

Diamond Giveaway

As I posted earlier, I bought a Topps Heritage value box at Walmart.  This is the continued post from that one.  I received the 2 Diamond Giveaways cards in those boxes.

I have used the codes on these 2 but if you want the cards, they are available.  And what did I get for those codes, let’s check it out.

A 1978 Topps Dave Chalk and a 1980 Topps Doug Flynn.  Don’t have either so I guess I can’t complain.  Not quite sure how the whole site works yet either.  I assume the diamond cut cards you can win just like you do these, put a code in and get it.  Would have rather had any White Sox but oh well.

Here are the 2 digs I got.

Didn’t realize they even had these kind of rings, but it’s pretty cool all the same.  The rings themselves don’t mean anything other than 2 collect for other prizes.  They should put these on a card as well so you can get them sent to you.  It would be a generic card but at least it’s something you can hold.

  1. Decent pulls on those codes...my first 2 were an 87 Dave Smith and a 2001 Stan Javier. They do have a trading option on there which I love. You could look up your White Sox needs for each of those years and swing a deal for them. I do that with my rookie cup needs for each year.

Sorry about the word verification, but blogger sucks at filtering out the comments as of late. As bad as their last update is.
