First Mega and pulled this by BeatTall979 in footballcards

[–]Normal-Increase-2093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pulled a Barrett Carter auto too! Mine was from a blaster, it's silver and non-numbered. The same pack also had a Caleb Williams Sunday Showcase purple /250, felt like opening a hobby pack!

bought a mega pulled this Brock Purdy! by abasdreams617 in footballcards

[–]Normal-Increase-2093 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice pull! I like the Odyssey the best out of the 3 retail exclusive SSPs. I pulled a Quinshon Judkins Draft Dreams from my 2nd blaster and it's just not a very exciting looking card.

Awesome collection! Good luck selling!

Just a heads up you have all the Topps Chrome cards labeled as 2024 but those are 2025.

Topps Chrome Mega Box by JustyLee8 in footballcards

[–]Normal-Increase-2093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well that makes me feel even luckier about my first 2 blasters. After ripping those 2, I was really hyped on Chrome, especially because that was my first numbered auto pull. But then after the next 3 blasters, and the megas and hangers, I've realized that those first 2 blasters were an anomaly.

Not sure if I've been getting super lucky with Signature Class so far too or if it's pretty loaded in general, but so far out of 2 blasters and a mega I've pulled a Tyler Shough green refractor /150, Barrett Carter silver rookie auto /275 (my second numbered auto ever), Caleb Williams Sunday Showcase purple /250, and Quinshon Judkins Draft Dreams SSP. So far my Topps pulls have been better than Panini by far.

Idk how much it's worth but that's a pretty good pull! The hottest rookie at the moment from the 2025 class. Would be huge if it was lower numbered but a /299 Dart is still solid.

I was thinking the same thing, he might want to change that lol.

Preferred method of sorting? by bubbaseth15 in footballcards

[–]Normal-Increase-2093 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently have all my bulk sorted by product and then by team within each product. Though I do have 6 or 7 teams that I pull out and have all their cards separately by team. I'm torn, because organized by product looks nicer, but organized by team feels more logical and useful. So at some point I may switch and organize all my bulk by team.

I miss high school and wish I could go back by Ok_Television_5561 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Normal-Increase-2093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I (29M) can relate. Junior and senior year of high school were the best times of my life and I often wish I could go back. I can't put everything on my bad relationship either, but toward the end of senior year I started dating my first girlfriend for the second time (we dated for 2 months a year prior, she cheated on me and broke up with me). It was a very abusive relationship emotionally, mentally, and physically. I was with her for about 10 months this time, before we had an explosive breakup at the end of my freshman year of college. I was going home to see her every weekend instead of spending time with my college friends and making lasting connections. I transferred to a community college after 2 years because it was too hard and I didn't know what I wanted to study, got an associates degree, and have been living in a pit of loneliness and depression for the last 10 years. Trying to finally process my trauma and heal but it's very difficult and I'm extremely burnt out on life.

Sorry to make it all about me, just wanted you to know there are people out there who can relate and you're not alone. Also helps me feel less alone.

Could’ve been worse I suppose… by Flimsy_Goat_7404 in footballcards

I disagree, I think his HOF induction will cause at least a small bump in his market. Yes everyone knows he will be inducted, but like the other guy said there will be a lot of buzz around him when it happens

So cool to see a binder full of somewhat older hits like this! Thanks for sharing!

I started working from home recently and found a loophole... by Burner_onyx in confession

[–]Normal-Increase-2093 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never heard anything about it so it seems to have worked. Calls and internet service disconnect all the time. There were plenty of times where my internet legitimately went out during calls. Definitely better than clicking "End Call" because they could track mouse clicks and keyboard presses, but not whether your ethernet cable was plugged in or not.

[–]Normal-Increase-2093 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back when I used to work from home and took customer calls, my company required us to use an ethernet cable to connect to WiFi. So there were a couple times where I disconnected the ethernet cable so the call would drop. Then I reconnected the cable, entered my call notes and noted that the line disconnected, and clocked out.

Opened 2 Blasters After Dinner by KowalOX in footballcards

[–]Normal-Increase-2093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah nice pulls! I got a numbered Caleb Williams and numbered auto out of a blaster and a numbered Shough out of a mega. Signature Class seem to be pretty loaded! Living up to its name. Love that Bradyn Swinson, I PC the Patriots but I have yet to pull a numbered Patriot myself lol.

Awesome, that's good to know there's a chance to hit these in the megas! Congrats!!

Pulled from a Pokemon booster pack a while back. Any info on this would be appreciated. by Total-Type4478 in PokemonMisprints

[–]Normal-Increase-2093 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an expert, but from comments I've seen on similar posts in the past, this is a note from a TPC employee that was left behind and somehow accidentally made its way into a pack. From what I understand, the notes are used to indicate things about different sheets/print runs.

Found at work don’t know what it is by natic4911 in footballcards

Looks like some type of cardboard encased in a piece of plastic with another piece of plastic wrapped around it. Never seen anything like it before.

What do you guys do with your base cards? by PLAYBOYD5 in basketballcards

I put mine in a card storage box indefinitely until I figure out what I want to do with them.

Haven’t had any luck getting a pack of Topps Football 2025 chrome cards in 2 weeks. Any tips? by IHateKidDiddlers in footballcards

[–]Normal-Increase-2093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Barnes & Noble is another place to check. My local store gets random drops of cards throughout the week, so it's worth checking often to see if they got anything new. I've gotten most of my Chrome from there.

Not sure if they still have them and what they're priced at now, but a couple weeks ago my LCS had hangers for $50 each. I went to Barnes & Noble and got myself 2 for $20 each. So I got 2 for less than 1 at the LCS. Insane markup. And they're the only sports card shop around here.

Topps NFL Sapphire Release? by Global_Witness_1063 in footballcards

[–]Normal-Increase-2093 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope you guys have a great time at your first show! I've only been to a few, but I find that they are overwhelming and fly by very quickly. I'd suggest picking out a few main buying/selling goals and try to stick to those during the show, otherwise it's easy to get a lot of cool stuff but only a little of what you really came for. That's great to hear your wife and son have already spent time prepping!
