The Jacksonville trip: 2nd purchase

I showed off the items picked up from my favorite dealer the last time. Fred didn't have as much of his stuff out this time, but he did have 6 or 7 3200 count boxes from a buddy dealer of his from the Deland Area. They were all dollar boxes, and that is all I am saying for now. That purchase will be covered over many many, many posts to wrap this trip up. I also mentioned about buying from 2 guys because I felt bad for them. I'll show the guy that had a table next to Fred tonight. I spent 3 hours at Fred's table (because of those dollar boxes). The entire time the guy next to him, and a couple of people look and walk away. He didn't have much out. A cardboard box with a homemade divider in the center with $1.00 items. The other box was a shoe box with dime cards.

The 4 oddballs came out of the dime box.

Dime box.

I grabbed up these so make up the $2.00 change I would have gotten back for the $8.00 I spent in the dollar box. (So, I spent an even $10.00).

He had two of these Front Row Roy Campanella sets ( I grabbed both).

He only had 1 of these Pee Wee Reese Front Row sets.

This is isn't your everyday Star set. They are hard thick and glossy. Nicely made cards. He had 2 of these sets and I grabbed both of them. One set for my PC, and one set minus 2 cards for that Giants collector. I pulled out the bubble gum and signing cards for my mini collections, sorry Adam.

These were singles. I know I overpaid for the Gold Aaron which I didn't need at all.

 I was good with the Elway and Gwynn cards.  Ah.....you see that header card don't you?

Yep, a Mother's Cookies set, but just this one set.

I pulled out my PC guys, and put the rest with Adam's cards. BTW Adam if you're reading this I have that box half way filled now.


So, I have to ask I spent $10.00 on everything you see plus the 2 extra sets..... Deal or No Deal?

Wacky Wednesday

Before we start, Happy birthday Elvis (where ever you are, lol).

and a couple of vintage......

Okay, now to the main post. Last week we looked at "The Lost Wackys" series 3. There is an alternate set with very slight differences (ie: a die on #3 instead of #5). I do have that set now, but we are going to show "The Lost Wackys" series 2 tonight as I was unable to score a set of series 1.

Here is the checklist of what is coming.

The 2 wrappers.

The 2 Bonus stickers.

The puzzle.

Now for the 33.

Oh look a baseball reference.

That was series 2. next week I will do series 4 which is the last of the "The Lost Wackys", and after that run is done we will have (the lost) Variations sets. There are 9 sets plus a bonus set of the Variations.

Trade me Tuesday

Looks like I might have a couple of trades from last night's post. Night Owl wants the Buehler Christmas variation and Fuji wants the Sanchez Holiday relic. One has a freman and the other has an Acuna which I need both. Looks promising.

Here are a few cards I'd like to trade away (hey Dion- you watching?). AUTOGRAPHS.

Looking for (baseball) auto's in return. Braves preferably that I need. Braves relics work too! Even tough inserts that I need. LMK whatcha got.
