JaredRek's success thread

[JaredRek]

Also, I had basically one of the best days of my life yesterday! To start, my baseball team is in our playoffs right now and we had our first game yesterday. We were playing our rivals who I can't stand and I had a walk off hit! After the game, I turned on my phone to a tweet from topps saying that I won a Ryan Braun auto/bat card!!! I was freaking out as he is my favorite player in the MLB and I just recently started a PC of him!! Winning the card just made the walk off hit that much more exciting! Let me know if you had a better day :)




I also sent out three cards to Levi Michael. He is a shortstop in the Twins minor league system. I sent him a card that has Francisco Lindor, Javier Baez, Jake Hager, and Michael. I already got it signed by Hager and am trying to get it signed by all 4! I think that would be a really cool card if it was! What do you guys think??

Sounds like an awesome day! Don't send to Lindor; the kid is in A-ball and is already a relatively tough sig from everything I've heard in my experiences. He just doesn't like to sign.

[JaredRek]

I've heard that too. Wasn't planning on sending to him. Just have to hope to get him IP sometime!

Right, I sent to Lindor as well with no luck thus far and it has been over two months :(... but good news is I hear Baez is a good TTM signer... I have a nice color photo of his on my "out" pile - good luck

Please let me know if you get that one back! Thanks!

Hey guys. It's been forever since I've updated my thread. Partially because I haven't gotten many return, partially because I just haven't really felt like it. But anyways, I'm going to post a few autos I've gotten over the past month or so, whenever the last time I updated this was.

My first TTM:
Levi Michael 3-3. Took about a week or two for the return. Forgot to mark when I sent it... I love this success. He signed two 2012 bowman cards and a card that I already got signed by Jake Hager. On the opposite side of the card is Javier Baez and Fransisco Lindor. My goal is to somehow get all four of their signatures on there! Super happy to get this one back and can't wait to hopefully get the other two eventually!


2nd TTM:
Shaun Alexander 4-4 A little under 3 months on the time out. Singed all four cards I sent and included a bible verse for an inscription on all of them. Sadly, I can't read what that verse says as it's pretty sloppy.. Still an awesome return though!


Update on the Ryan Braun card I won from twitter!
I got the Braun card from toppscards! It. Is. Awesome. #'d /75 and is a beautiful card to add to my PC of Braun :)



Also picked up this auto out of a box of Bowman Platinum!


And last but not least, I went to a Brewers Reds game about a week ago and got four pretty awesome autos out of it! Brandon Phillips, Dusty Baker, Drew Stubbs, and Miguel Cairo!

Nice Reds sigs, really like the Cairo.

One return in the mail today! Got Bryan Bulaga 1/1 c/o Green Bay Packers. Somewhere around 2 months on the return I believe. Forgot to mark down when I sent again.. Personalized it and put his number. Sweet return!
