My cousin, referred to as Sluggo on this blog, contacted me that he had a couple of cards I might want. We decided on $10 for both of them. I know, that's way more than I normally spend but he is my cousin so I don't mind paying a bit more than usual. I checked the bay for previous sold of the cards and I didn't overpay for the cards, just spent more than I normally would.
When he showed me the pic of this card, I was thinking I already had it and was going to say no to the $10 but I looked closer and saw it's #'d to /99 so it was a different version (bowl ticket) than the ones I have. Plus, it's numbered 6 of 99 which is my birth month and my birthday so it's extra special. Not really, but it makes a good story. It's my 4th Autograph out of 6 cards in his collection.
This was the card I really wanted. I didn't have any auto's of Jabrill yet, this is numbered to /35 and he's in the Maize and Blue. What's not to like. This is only my 2nd Peppers card but at least I can say half of his cards are autographs.
The last one of the DeVeon Smith sold on ebay for $4.50 with another $4 shipping so $8.50/shipped. The last one sold of the Peppers went for $9.50 and $3.74 shipping so $13.24/shipped. So you can see that I still don't mind paying $10/shipped for the both of them.
Nice deal! I'm glad to see that UM Peppers autos aren't insane anymore, at least in some cases.
