Bought a Collection

Hey guys, just thought i would share my latest colleciton purchase. Someone was moving out of state and had to get rid of their cards. I came over, and much to my surprise, there were about 74 binders full of baseball cards. I skimmed through some, and the majority were commons. I found a few Jeter upper deck rcs, and a jeter gu, so i thought what the heck i'll buy! Surely I can just make my money back on the binders of cards!

As mentioned below, I got THREE David Ortiz 97 Ultra RC's - I was so psyched because I had already gone through everything and was ready to sell it all off. One just caught my eye. I was like "hmmm, David Arias looks like David Ortiz of the Red Sox. I wonder if that is an error. Let me look it up. I may have missed out on getting a $5 card!" HAHAHAHA

So, over the past several days of me going through everything, I found a ton! Here are a few highlights:

1986 Topps Traded Bonds ($15)
2001 Bowman Pujols ($60)

MINT 1976 Brett, Yount, Eckersley, Winfield and a few others ($15-$25 ea)
2003 Bowman Gold Ryan Howard ($30, but has chipping on the back of the card around the borders)
FIVE 93 Upper Deck Jeter RC's ($10 ea)
25 gu/autos - some common guys, but also, Piazza, Chipper and Jeter ($10-$25 ea)
