Player Collection Additions - Mark Buehrle

*For those new to the blog, all purchases were made on Ebay (unless otherwise said) and all were under $.50/shipped.

*Since I made a huge purchase (147 cards) from JustCommons.com, I'm going to combine them with my Ebay purchases for the next couple of weeks.  I bought the cheapest cards of my player collections. I spent $2 on my tier 1 collections and $1 on the rest. I also picked up one relic card to make my purchase an even $25.

These 9 Buehrle cards gets me up to 150 of him. The last card is only the 5th of his non-White Sox days so I really need to get his newer cards more than his older ones.

Player Collection Additions - Tom Seaver

1986 Sportflics

I was able to pick a bunch of Tom Seaver, I could have sworn I had that Gypsy Queen but it wasn't listed on my lists.  All the Sportflics have Seaver on them even though he's not always pictured. Getting a picture of those was a pain in the ass. Disadvantage of taking pictures instead of scanning I guess. I haven't added them to my lists yet but I think it puts me over 270 different Tom Seaver cards.

I can't believe I'm still going strong after 4 years, well, still going, I don't know about strong.  My collections have changed quite a bit from 2011. Mainly, I didn't have any. I just bought and sold on Ebay and didn't really keep anything for myself. Now I have 28 player collections, 2 team collections, and a (what could end up being) a huge vintage collection. With all of that, The only things I have that aren't a part of my collections are a few White Sox dupes.

New additions to the White Sox and Vintage collections

Today, we will start with the Vintage collection and Vintage collection pick-ups.

1984 Topps - Just Commons

1982 Fleer - Ebay

1975 Topps - Ebay

I'm not sure why the Willie Randolph was in my Just Commons purchase, I assumed it was an accident, but I can still use it. I already have the 1982 Fleer in my White Sox collection so this one goes to the Vintage collection.

1990 Donruss lot - Ebay

2007 Bowman Heritage - Just Commons

2014 Bowman Platinum - Ebay

2014 Panini Prizm - Ebay

2013 Topps Chasing History - Ebay

2015 Topps Rainbow - Ebay

2006 Upper Deck Star Attractions Relic - Just Commons

The 6 card lot of 1990 Donruss White Sox cards I grabbed all of those for less than $.50 total. The Joe Crede at the top (Bowman Heritage) was also a mistake by Just Commons, I ordered one of those for the Joe Crede Collection and for some reason, they sent me 2. Works for me since I could actually use 2. I'm not sure if the Adam Dunn is a parallel or not, I suppose I need to look into that. It wasn't listed as one when I bought it off Ebay, but looking at it without comparing next to another, it looks awfully shiny like. The Iguchi relic was the aforementioned purchase to get my Just Commons purchase to $25.

Player Collection Additions - Konerko, Ripken and Schmidt

*For those new to the blog, all purchases were made on Ebay (unless otherwise said) and all were under $.50/shipped.

1998 Pinnacle

1997 Bowman

2011 Bowman Green /450

3 additions to the Paul Konerko is always good, I now have 324 different Konerko cards so between him not really getting listed under $.50 much and I already have a bunch, I don't generally get many of his anymore.

1998 Topps

1995 Donruss

2004 Upper Deck Memorable Moments

I actually got all 3 of these in one lot and only paid $.54/shipped for it.  These 3 cards give me 144 cards in the Ripken Collection.

1984 Milton Bradley

1986 Sportflics (2/Pedro Guerrero and Darrell Porter)

2014 Panini Prizm

1988 Topps Commemorative set

1983 Topps (all-star)

2005 Donruss Zenith

2009 Upper Deck Goodwin Champions

With the addition of these 7 cards, the Schmidt Collection is up to 45 cards. I wasn't able to pick up very many and now, all of the sudden, I'm winning a bunch. Don't understand why, maybe his cards are just now getting listed cheap enough, I don't know.

That's all for the last batch, for this blog, my next batch will be over at the Michigan blog and then I'll be back with my Just Commons purchase.

Player collection additions - Carlton, Carter and Fisk

*For those new to the blog, all purchases were made on Ebay (unless otherwise said) and all were under $.50/shipped.

We saw the vintage pick-ups in the last couple of posts. Today, we'll start with the player pick-ups and we will be doing that alphabetically.

2013 Upper Deck Goodwin Champions

1983 Topps (All-Star)

2 more additions to the Steve Carlton collection. I actually purchased 4 of his but I ended up having 2 of them. Some days I'm too lazy to check and see if I have them before I bid.

1987 Fleer

2013 Topps Chasing History

2011 Topps Gypsy Queen

2013 Topps Gypsy Queen Collisions at the Plate

1 Vintage (sorta) and 3 modern cards. I was a Mets fan growing up, when Carter played for them, but I still prefer seeing him in the Expos colors. I'm pretty sure that's Ozzie Smith in that last card. I think I used that photo on My Sports Obsession II awhile back.

2001 Fleer Greats

2005 Upper Deck All-Star Classics

2001 Fleer Red Sox 100th Beantown's Best

2013 Topps Gypsy Queen Framed White

1981 Topps Drake's Big Hitters

4 Red Sox additions and 1 White Sox one (and a hideous uniform at that), that's not great for a White Sox fan but that's also partly to I have a lot of his White Sox ones (87) compared to the Red Sox cards (12).
