Is the World Ending? I'm Selling Off Most of My Collection!
I'm a little bit heartbroken about this, but honestly a little excited too. After a long chat with my wife about our plans for the future (and about the fact that I'm pretty much addicted - haha), we've come up with a plan for me to only keep my very favourite cards for an epic future man-cave display, and to sell the rest off via eBay and to you folks here. We're planning to move back home to a MUCH lower salary before too long, so now is the time to sell off most of my cards and use the funds to buy my remaining white whales. I know this will make some on the forum quite happy, as I think I've built a pretty sweet rookie collection over the last 5 years or so. I'll be keeping all of my The Cup RC's (maybe not the Cup /25's though), all the UD Premier Collection RC's, and just two or three of the best looking, rarest RC's from each dude I collect. Everything else is up for grabs, so feel free to look around and message me. I basically just sell at eBay price, for the most part. If I'm offered lower than I figure I could get on the Bay, I'll just list it there. That being said there are some great folks on this forum that I'd love to end up with some of these cards.
Just so you know what I've collected, here is an overview:
- OPC RC's of EVERY star from the beginning of OPC up until 1990 (which is when they began being worthless).
- High end and low numbered (NOTHING OVER /99 unless it's auto'ed or has memorabilia) RC's of:
Nicklas Backstrom
Patrice Bergeron
Jeff Carter
Logan Couture
Pavel Datsyuk
Johan Franzen
Marc-Andre Fleury
Marian Gaborik
Ryan Getzlaf
Patrick Kane
Phil Kessel
Anze Kopitar
Ilya Kovalchuk
Vincent Lecavalier
Henrik Lundqvist
Roberto Luongo
Rick Nash
Zach Parise
Corey Perry
Dion Phaneuf
Mike Richards
Bobby Ryan
Alex Semin
Jason Spezza
Eric Staal
Jordan Staal
Paul Stastny
Jonathan Toews
Thomas Vanek
Cam Ward
Henrik Zetterberg
I also have a bunch of GOLD MEDALLION insert sets from 95/96 Fleer Ultra, four Gold Starquest cards /100, a bunch of Willie O'ree and Don Cherry auto cards, and a smidge of other random stuff. Feel free to search for what you want!
To get back to the "discussion" part, I can honestly say I've wrestled with the idea of stopping collecting for almost a couple years now. It's addictive, it takes up a lot of money, and as a Christian I have felt convicted at times about making this hobby an "idol" which takes too much of my time and attention. I still love the hobby and that's why I'm going to keep some of my favourites, but basically after I spend the money I get from selling the majority of my cards on getting my last few "big" card purchases, I plan to be DONE.
What do you guys think? Have I gone mad? Haha. Thanks everyone!
