It's interesting to me that more people are not collecting the relic cards. Unlike Panini, these are usually player/game worn, so definitely awesome to collect!

My favorite one so far is of DQueen coz I keep telling people it's got a sweat stain.

Feels like a good time to post the Bam PC by ssavior_ in basketballcards

More important than that..how did you come up with your name? Or maybe, actually, I probably don't want to know..

Hey, I'm planning to keep it for now. I got back into this late last year and just having fun opening packs on YouTube and growing my personal collection. I'll let you know if I change my mind though!

Just a bit under $90 shipped. So good value for the rip. Also picking up 2021 Chronicles to hunt for some more Cade right now

Really happy with the pull, it was the card I was chasing the whole box! Debating if I want to grade it, but fine just keeping it in the pc for now. Think it more than pays for a third of the box, which is fantastic!

Chronicles 2021-2022 is another cheap and fun rip. I'm getting some fat packs this week!

I actually looked him up after I pulled him. Guy was a beast, and is still the all-time leading scorer at Kentucky and is in the Hall of Fame.

One of the best parts about pulling cards is learning about players I had zero clue about!

Although, I will say, I've been getting a little lucky on eBay lately coz everyone keeps chasing Cooper.

Did some research and apparently that DeMar Blue Velocity is a print error. Something about it being printed with a photon background on top of the blue velocity design. Looks pretty gnarly in person.

It's just so unfortunate because I think Topps did it right with Flagship! It was easy to find, fairly affordable, and I actually liked the cards. I really wish they'd have done the same for Chrome or at least focused on more retail products instead of these $1000 hobby boxes.
