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.

Ebay - White Sox Collection

This weeks new additions to the White Sox collection.

ebay-wsox01.1

1980’s Kellogg’s cereal 3D cards (Chet Lemon and Claudell Washington)

Picked both of these up for $.99 each.  I saw this seller with these and the following cards and I couldn’t resist.

ebay-wsox01.2

1983 Kellogg’s 3D cards (Greg Luzinski, Harold Baines & Britt Burns)

I got all the above cards for $.99 each all from the same seller that I got the last Tom Seaver collection cards.

2004 Upper Deck Sweet Spot Sweet Threads game-used jersey

Picked this up for ($2.24/shipped).  Not a huge fan of Mags but I did like him when he was here.  Plus it’s a relic card.

1968 Topps Chicago White Sox team card and Wilbur Wood.

Picked up the team card for $.96 and the Wood for $.50.  Great prices, I think.  If I really like the vintage card I’ll usually up my max bid to $1.

2012 Topps ‘87 mini ($.35)

I actually thought I needed this for the Paul Konerko collection, but I already had one.  I still needed one for the White Sox collection though so it still worked out.

Completed Team Sets–2010 Topps

team-10topps

My first flagship completed set.  This is only series 1 & 2, I don’t include Update as part of the set.  If they intended it to be part of the set, they would pick up where the numbering left off instead of using the U numbering system.  At least that’s the way I think about it.

team-10topps02

I’ve heard complaints of this design, it’s not my favorite but I don’t think it’s horrible either.  I like the logo on the front.  Almost all action shots.

team-10topps03

Love the team card.  I threw in the Beckham because it’s a completed insert set.  It was the only White Sox in the When They Were Young set, therefore it’s completed.

Ebay–Tom Seaver Collection

These are new additions to the Tom Seaver Collection.

ebay-tomseaver99.4

1992 Kellog’s Corn Flakes 3D Sportflicts ($.99)

You gotta love these cereal cards.  I bought a bunch for the White Sox collection as well that you’ll see soon.

ebay-tomseaver99.2 ebay-tomseaver99.3 ebay-tomseaver99

All 3 of these are from the 1981 Topps Scratch-offs.  All 3 are different and all 3 cost me $.99 each.  They aren’t cards, but they aren’t things you see everyday.  I don’t like that they are oversized because I can’t display my oversized stuff yet.
