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.

2 Collections in one

I finally got some mail, I've got plenty of cards coming, they just haven't been coming. I got one envelope with a few cards in it. All going to the Vintage Collection and the White Sox Collection.

1970 Topps
I picked up this for $.23/shipped.

I picked up this one for $.16/shipped.

All in all, not bad when you can get 3 cards from 1970 for under a quarter a piece. They also go to two different collection so technically, it's 6 cards towards the collection.

Ebay puchases

I received my COMC Black Friday purchase in the mail yesterday but I haven’t gotten around to scanning them yet, I know, your shocked.  So let’s get some Ebay purchases out of the way, since I may not use it much anymore.

All these are additions to the White Sox collection.

Picked this up for $.50 shipped.  I still need one of these for my 1981 Topps set but I always fill my Chicago White Sox needs first.

I got this at $.50 shipped as well.  I don’t think I have too many cards from the 1980 set.  And I’d have to say that none of the were future “stars” for the White Sox or anyone else.

Wow!  Not a pretty fella.  I got this for $.50 shipped as well.

ebay-71toppsebay50each

Bet you can’t guess what I paid for these?  Yep, your right, $.50 each shipped.  I won these and a bunch of other 1971’s from a seller and when I went to pay, I noticed his address was where I am.  So we ended up meeting in a parking lot at the local mall and picked up my cards.

I won this lot for $1.53 which comes to $.51 each.  I don’t have hardly any 1964’s so I was happy to get these.

I hope you haven’t been turned off by all the 1973 Topps and 1981 Topps posts, just trying to get them out of the way so I can focus on new stuff when I get them.  I have a couple more Completed Team Sets posts to nail out too before I get to my COMC purchases because I completed a few more team sets with that.  As well as adding to some of my vintage player collections.

Cheap Ebay–Vintage #9

I went on a little of a splurge on Ebay and picked up a bunch of vintage White Sox cards. I’d like to complete a few of the team sets before the end of the year.

1968 Topps – Joe Horlen

Cost = $.99

I haven’t researched Joe Horlen but I know he’s on a few league leader cards I have.  I remember him being 2nd in Cy Young voting one year.  But none of that matters because it goes to my team set.
