Cheap Vintage

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

We're starting a new month off with some new purchases from Sportslots. We'll have a few White Sox posts, a few new player collections and a couple of Vintage posts along with a couple other player collections. I think there was a total of 13 posts for the month so I don't have to force myself to post every day, even though I have plenty of time to do so now. Maybe I'll get around to doing a random cards from my collection post.

After the random, we end up with a vintage post. If you remember, before I had the vintage collection, I was trying to collect the 1973 Topps set. I purchased a couple of cards from the same seller so I decided to grab a few 1973's that he was selling just to add to the collection.

The Ron Santo was a nice find, I paid $.18 for each of the cards above. These 9 cards put me at 464 cards which is good for 70% completion. I know I have some more from this set in my Sportlots box so you'll see some more next month.

Cheaper Than Stamps #22

This is a series where I show off cards I need for my PC’s that I pick up on Ebay for cheaper than a stamp.  My maximum I spend on these cards is actually $.30 so I get them quite a bit cheaper than a stamp.

1974 Topps – Dave Roberts #177, Ron Schueler #544, Sonny Siebert #548

I picked up these 3 for just over $.20 a piece.  I don’t get too many cards from 1974 that comes up so these were nice to add.

1971 Topps – Greg Garrett #377, Bob Humpreys #236, Mike Corkins #179, Buck Martinez #163, Gary Ross #153, Mack Jones #142

I picked these all up as 1 lot, I won it for $1.04.  Other than the 1973 Topps set, which I’ve been going after for a lot longer than this collection, the 1971 Topps set has the highest amount of cards in the 1970’s with 53.  That’s only good for 7% of the set, but it’s a start.

1970 Topps – Tom Burgmeier #108

This shouldn’t actually be in these posts because I paid more than a stamp for it.  Mainly because when I search cards, I search for free shipping and this came up because somehow, my free shipping button got unclicked.  I didn’t realize it had $.50 shipping on it till I bid.  Ebay tricked me, bastards.

1969 Topps – Ken Suarez #19, Jesus Alou #22

I picked up both of these 1969 cards for $.29 each.  I certainly don’t mind dropping that for commons from the 1960’s.

That’s it for the vintage collection this round.  I’ll be going back to the player collections.
