1000th Post on SCF - Giroux Collection Showcase Extravaganza!

**richied98** · 04-30-2009, 08:09 PM

Hello All-
Decided for my 1000th post I would showcase my Giroux Collection, as well as thank the good people on this forum who have helped me with this collection. Without boring anyone, here's a quick background on me. Last April i decided that it would be fun to start buying packs/boxes of cards and sell them out. Hockey is all I love so I went right to hockey. After seeing the passion of some SCF members I decided to start a Coburn collection. Quickly I got tired of this collection and decided to pick up a Claude Giroux collection. Without the great members of the site I would not have anywhere near the amount of Giroux cards that I have now. I will list some of the people at the bottom. I obviously can not list everyone but please know that if we have ever talked or work together I appreciate your help!

Now I'd like to showcase some of my biggest/favorite Giroux Accomplishments! At the end I'll include a link to my Bucket, so you can see all of the cards I have.

Collection - 66/117 - 56.41% Complete
1/1's - 1
/25 and lower - 10!

Now Onto the Scans!!!

Checking the Mail Each day for this: UD Black Blue True 1/1!!!
