.......but winners never quit and quitters never win!!!!

I tried to be good. I passed on the butt-ugly UD Trilogy pucks.

I did not win this, and I didn't feel all that bad.......

I didn't even bother trying to outbid the winner on this atrocity.........

I thought I was cured, I thought it was over! I was wrong.........................

UD Anaheim Ducks giveaway night, I'm sooooooo lucky I saw that one :)

Not cheap, but what can ya do? Why is Richard Brodeur there instead of Roberto Luongo????

Soooooo yeah, I'm still at 72.5% of the total run & 82.5% of the non 1/1 run, closing in on 1,100 cards. It could be worse tho right? Alcohol, gambling, women of low morals and character, The Reefer, these are all things that Ryan Kesler is better than, yessir!!!!

One more story. Maybe a month ago I got a text from Chris Hossa18Sens, he was putting together the 2003/04 Pacific Exhibit Time Warp set and had managed to snag a Bobby & Brett Hull redeemed auto/jersey!!! This card was originally a redemption and is much rarer to find nowadays than the others in the set. In six years of looking on & off on eBay I'd never seen one, which is the main reason I never bothered trying to complete the whole thing. I was very happy for him in my own special rage-filled-jealous way hahahaa, but I figured what the heck and went to eBay and HOLY MOTHER THERE IT WAS JUST SITTING THERE. So I bought it :)

Nice huh?????

And just in case you missed my big pick-up at Sunday's card show, here it is again.........

G'nite!

Kesler is bae

Am I missing something on that Kesler HG? $50? Really?

I got my Nyquist for $3.99 lol.

Does Kesler really have that many nutty followers?

You're a stronger man than me if you can pass up an autographed shield like that!

Yay so you found the Hull, what's left for the Time Warp set? Inquiring minds want to see that set get done!

Great bunch of pickups as always!

No player picture on the card, it's just sad :(

I still need Heatley/Hall and Lemieux/Bower for the Exhibit set. Both are up on eBay for pretty reasonable BINs, maybe next payday.............

Well, there's me and the guy in Connecticut. There's a couple of mystery eBayers who bid high on his Ducks stuff but leave his Canucks stuff alone. And there's HI Randy who lives about 10 minutes away from me who collects HG's in general. Don't forget, EVERYONE wants the first one that pops up - the first Fleer Showcase White Hot patch sold for $80 on eBay. I snagged the second one yesterday for $15.50 hahahaa.

Wow less than $100 for a Kesler autographed NHL-shield 1/1 card even if it's ugly....
I can never even dream to grabbing a unautographed Barrasso NHL-shield for less than $700.

The seller wanted $1000 for the Badge of Honor with Barrasso one....not interested for a such ugly card with that price range!
If it's a Upper Deck one so I had to easily prepare paying at $1500-$2500 (or much more!) range for that then....
Not bad for a common goalie according Beckett Monthly when you can get 3-8x HOF:ers for same price then!
