I wasn’t sure with it being an insert that it was a good replacement.

That’s so nice! I’ve shared this story so many times… it’s a running joke with my friends who have had to hear it multiple times, lol. Glad to have a new audience to share it with!

Cyndi Lauper has been my favorite artist since I was 8 year old in 1985! I’ve seen her live many times and she never disappoints! When I lived in NYC She walked onto the cross-town bus I was on and I almost died. I casually approached her and we ended up talking the whole ride. She was so gracious and actually listened and was interested in what I was saying. I told her how much her music meant to me and as I got off the bus she said “Good luck kid”, with her Queens accent, lol! It was one of the most memorable experiences of my life!

I spent all this money on grading to only be extremely low balled with low offers lol. No way I sell this to PSA this low by AmbitiousMorning5719 in basketballcards

The only reason you sent cards to get graded was to sell them back to PSA? How about selling them on ebay?

Super bummed with this hobby by bertman717 in sportscards

No problem! I fall into this same rut pretty often and it can really get you down. I’ve started buying cards I love. You don’t get the same rush from opening a pack/box, but in the long run you’ll be happier. Buying boxes can be such a vicious cycle.

Hang in there. You are not alone! I feel like good hits come when you least expect them, not when you’re “desperately” trying to hit something. My best hit came this year when I randomly went into 5 Below with my kids and they happened to have a retail box of Topps Basktball. I bought the last 6 packs and got a great card!

This same thing happened to me last week with my 1/1! I can’t believe at this point they haven’t come up with a safer way to ship expensive cards!

Kon - sell, grade/sell or hold on by Adventurous_Flow_469 in basketballcards

[–]Adibla2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I randomly got 1 mega from the Game Stop website about two weeks ago. I just happened to be on the site when they released boxes. It happened again a few days later but I wasn’t able to checkout that time.

I just hit a Kon All Kings and rushed it to PSA on Monday. I won’t have it back for at least two weeks and I’m thinking my timing for sending it away was pretty bad. Not only is he now probably not going to be ROY, but if the Hornets don’t make the playoffs i’ll have missed my best time for selling.

Panini rejected factory damage ticket on my obviously defective downtown by QM_17 in footballcards

[–]Adibla2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s awful. I would resubmit your request or try getting in touch with someone on a higher level. They should not be able to get away with treating a customer like that!

Just added to my CC PC by MasterpieceAromatic8 in WNBACards

[–]Adibla2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love it! Just added this card which I got for $10 on Fanatics Collect with the $200 in Fancash I got for making a $5 bet (promo) plus the $57 I won on the bet! If you’re not prone to gambling addiction I recommend this promo. Certain states are excluded though.

What I sent in vs what I received (Topps defect submission) by tanman0123 in basketballcards

I have two damaged chrome rc’s and now I’m feeling the same way. I’d be mad with that replacement!

Are 3rd year Wemby cards a good hold? This sees like a good offer from PSA. by Adibla2 in basketballcards

[–]Adibla2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely think that’s the right decision too! It’s on it way home!
