2020 Topps Sox Needs

 Wow! Didn't realize I hadn't posted in 5 days. See what happens when you go back to work. Stupid responsibilities.

Today's random came back with some more 2020 Sox. I seem to be on a team collection kick right now, I was on Sportlots last night and started purchasing 2019 Sox needs. I guess I'll just work down the years every week or two. I also made some purchases on baseballcardstore.ca, trying to complete another set for the Vintage collection. I also threw some 80's Sox needs on that order.

Today's post will be the Topps portion.

All those 2020 Topps are from Series II as I hadn't purchased any. I'm only the Luis Robert short (big surprise), minus all the short prints that is (all 8 of them). The short prints are ridiculous, there are 4 different ones just of Robert. I paid $.18 for each of the above.

In a familiar story, all of these Big League cards would complete the team set, except I need the Luis Robert. I also ran across the Orange version of Grandal for a quarter so I grabbed it. I paid $.18 each for the rest.

I picked up a couple of the Chrome versions as well. Being as Chrome is popular, these are the only 2 I have so a long way from that team collection. It does amaze me that I can pick up the Abreu on the cheap considering he is having a MVP season but he reminds me a lot like Konerko was to us. Very under rated for many years. I don't remember Konerko having a season like Abreu is now but still, same concept. He flies under the radar and they keep pitching to him. It works for us. I paid $.18 each for both of those.

I also paid $.18 for this Yasmani Grandal. I actually grabbed 6 from the Finest team set but the rest were in player collections so you'll see them later, and probably already saw a couple. I'm still 3 short of this team set. I'm sure you know who one of those are.

Some more 2020

* I put my March purchases on random for today's post.

First off, I asked this question on Twitter, not sure why I ask them there as I never get an answer but you bloggers/readers usually do. I used to buy my pages for cards on Ebay and now that I don't give them any of my money, I need a new place to buy them. Where's the cheapest place to get them? I've found them in a couple of places but when you add the shipping, it can get ridiculous so if you have a place that sells them as a reasonable price, let me know.

I've gotta say, I love going back through all my cards again. I read a comment from Fuji that said he's been trying to appreciate the cards he has more and I understand why. I get cards, I log them in and then they go to wherever I'm storing them and I don't see them again. I might have to make it a point to every so often, just flip through them again.

I'm slowly making it through the White Sox collection, alphabetically. The last player I completed today was Billy Pierce so I'm over halfway. I work about 5 or 6 hours a day on my cards. It's more or less, my job, now that I'm not working. I sleep in, grab some breakfast, go to my card room and work until about supper time. I really enjoy the time to myself with my cards.

Anyways, the random popped up with some more 2020 White Sox cards.

These 14 cards are all 2020 Heritage, I paid $.18 for all of them except the one with Abreu and some guy named Killebrew, I paid $.42 for that one. I picked these up not long after they were released, that's the bad part about posting a month after I purchase stuff. I just bought some 2020 Donruss and Gypsy Queen yesterday but they probably won't be in hand until the end of next month (they'll go to my Sportlots box) and then not get posted here until June. It is what it is, I'm just explaining my process some.
