My NY Giants Success Thread

[C&C Collecting]

I just got 2,000 (give or take a few) Giants football cards delivered. Got them off eBay for $30+ shipping. I have a ton of these cards already but a lot of them are reloads to send out to guys who haven't signed for me in the past. Gonna keep plugging away at them until they crack or I break down and buy a certified auto of theirs.


Also was able to add a Thomas Lewis certified card and just won a Topps certified Prince Amukamara card for less than $4.50. So even though I had no SASE's in the mailbox I still was able to add to my collection.

Robert Harris signed 1/1 c/o home
Will Beatty signed 1/1 c/o Giants

Also, a Thomas Lewis certified I purchased on eBay came in. Not a bad return day for the Giants collection.

[C&C Collecting]

In today:

Former Giants TE Brian Saxton signed 1/1 c/o home

I will start with the failure today. I sent to David Meggett c/o his prison and the prison wouldn't let it through, including a copy of why it was rejected in my envelope before it was RTS'd. Apparently, in South Carolina, inmates can break out of prison using a football card or can mail themselves out of prison in a SASE! Honestly, how can a football card be contraband? It's not like it can be made into a shank or something. I've seen people get returns from prison before. The form literally says "Other: Sport card/ Blank Stamped envelope" I guess writing an address on the envelope means it is still blank. At least they got the stamped part right. There isn't even a phone number to call to find out the proper procedures, darn government cutbacks! All kidding aside, this made no sense to me.

Now for the successes:

Gordon King signed 1/1 c/o home and wrote and signed a note wishing me luck on my collection.
Brian Kelley signed 1/1 c/o home, great return from the Crunch Bunch member. Took only 4 days, one of the quickest returns ever.
Jason Whittle signed 1/1 c/o home
Karl Nelson signed 1/1 c/o home and like other 1986 Giants included "SB XXI Champ Giant" on the card.
