Completed Team Sets–2006 Fleer

I’m sorry about all the Completed Team Sets and 1981 Topps posts, but that’s all I’ve got scanned so far.   I have some packages to get scanned but I’m waiting for 1 more from COMC before I scan some more.  I usually try to sit and scan everything at once while I have the scanner out.  But until then, you’ll get alternating between those 2.

I actually received this team set from a trader, I don’t remember who now, but I took the Paul Konerko and it went to the Paul Konerko collection because I fill the player collections first.  But I went and picked up an additional Konerko to finish it with my last COMC purchase.

You can’t complain about all action shots.  Kind of a plain foreground but it’s got the team logo, so that’s a positive.

Cheap Ebay Pickup

This was the last cheap ebay pickup from awhile back.  I do have some free Ebay pickups coming though.

• Juan Uribe – 2007 Upper Deck game-used jersey ($1.41/shipped)

Juan was huge while he was here.  While he did annoy me with his bat, his defense was 2nd to none.  His bat was streaky, when he was hot, he was on fire.  But if he wasn’t hot, he sucked.  And it was always one or the other.  But I liked him for the most part.  Of course, after he left the Sox, a friend of mine at work found out he knew his cousin and he could have gotten us tickets.

I was happy to get a game-used jersey for $1.41 though, regardless of how streaky he was.

Trade with Justin

Justin of “Justin’s World” posted a comment that he wanted a couple of cards from one of my value boxes I opened, so we emailed back and forth and worked out a trade.  It was a relatively small trade.  Here is what we agreed on.

That’s what we agreed on.  Much to my surprise, there was much more in his package to me.  Check them out.

And those are just some of the highlights.  I feel like I shortchanged Justin big time.  I didn’t have much for his player collections and I had traded most of my Cubs cards awhile back so I didn’t have much to send him.  But his last post mentioned he collects Pirates as well, I didn’t know that, I will have to see if I have anything to send him back.  Thanks again, Justin.

Mail call

Received a lot I bought on Ebay – 30 card White Sox lot – here’s the highlights.

Nothing high dollar but some nice cards for the price.
