    The A-Rich came in the new PSA holder too. A little thicker and a decent bit heavier, I like them.

    just spent $300 at Target on cards oops

    2x 24 pack Prizm NBA boxes and 3 Select blasters, prayers up

    Didn't think about that part of it, good call. I've personally only cracked Beckett and SGC slabs to send to PSA.

    I just watched a 2022 Topps Chrome Jumbo Rip. 5 autos "on average" supposedly. Zero autos in the box. Dude got skunked on 5 autos.

    Since PSA struck that deal controlling the Ebay Vault and whatnot, I wish the Ebay Authenticators were also PSA graders.

    Authenticate and grade the card at the same time.

    Wish I had some extra cash to negotiate for this. One of favorite sets. https://www.ebay.com/itm/225477123861

    just listed/sold some cards on eBay, how do I fix a situation where the shipping was listed as eBay standard envelope and the buyer paid as such for $1, then I am not getting the option to select that method but have to pay $4 for UPS Ground? I checked the dimensions and weight which were the exact same as another card a different buyer bought for the eBay shipping method and I was able to purchase a shipping label accordingly.

    What is in the "ounces" box? Has to be 3 and under to qualify for standard envelope, I believe

    If it's over $20, you can't use the eBay standard envelope shipping

    Ground advantage is typically between $3.80-$4.20 depending on location. I think Media runs right around the same price point.

    I think part of what's driving this is the A-Rich auto mini-scandal. The crappy auto on this card is his true auto. His other signature styles (or him passing auto-signing off to someone/something else) are the oddball ones.

    Definitely the kind of card that you sell now and buy it back in two years for a fraction of the price.

    Feel Bowman is less loaded this year. Pulled an auto my first blaster I opened but have been autoless since (think I've opened about 6 more). Almost all have just that non numbered green card and some have a numbered paper card, and that's usually it. Maybe I've been unlucky, but feel I pulled more autos previous years. Now I did get a non numbered green Skenes and a paper color Crews, so it could have been worse

    I ripped one more last night. No parallels. Very few 1sts.

    0/4 on autos. Probably get one more for my stash, but :blech:

    I fell so cheddarisbetter could run

    I bought four Bowman blasters from Target on Thursday. 3 of them were bad. The other had a Jordan Lawler Chrome yellow auto /75 and a 1/1 printing plate of some Cardinals prospect, Chase Davis, in the same pack.

    YMMV

    I absolutely fucking hate it when a buyer messages me asking when an item is going to ship when it's still within the handling window.
