Ginter Goodness...

I'll get through this comc package if it kills me. And it just might.

Today we'll show off a whack o' Ginter. Nothing but the hits baby!

I did quite well here... selling off old 2008 Ginter hits of random no names and acquiring 2013 Ginter hits of much wanted Bravos.

Allen&Ginter  had two separate types of relics, full size, and bordered min relics.

Here are the full size. They look sharp. Well done.

Brandon Beachy - $1.08

Craig Kimbrel - $1.24  best reliever in baseball, and the cornerstone of my fantasy baseball team the last three years.

The J-Hey kid... $1.46

and the good Upton. (No, not Kate....) $1.24

I only need the Hank Aaron full sized relic and my set is complete.....

Bordered minis...

Brian McCann - $1.31  I'll miss him. Although I'll see him on tv four times a week now instead of four times a season..... Next on FOX! Yankees vs. Red Sox!

Jason... again.... $1.47  couldn't we have mixed up the player selection a bit? I already have a Kimbrel mini as well... seriously Topps...

oh, and a random Mike Joy for my dad. He got a kick out of it. $2.23

I'm really glad to have been able to pick these up... now I just have to find someone with the full sized Aaron relic....

Yeah... good luck.

Mike Joy - 2013 Allen&Ginter Wanted Here...

So for those of you that know me well, you know I rarely pay attention. It's not that I don't care, it's, well, that I don't care.

 

Products are coming out at a feverish pace, and I can't keep up.

 

I guess it doesn't matter too much being a set collector. I'll get there when I get there. But for the player collectors out there.... you guys are insane. Scouring the interwebs for checklists months before the product hits the street, knowing that you have to find 17 cards of your player before the product is 24 hours old because another product with 13 cards of your guy hits the day after tomorrow and all of the boards will have forgotten about today's product by then...

 

No wonder you guys look stressed at trade nights.

 

Me? I couldn't tell you who's in what. And I'm happy being like that. The hours are good and there's no heavy lifting.

 

Except once in awhile, I miss out on a card that I want, because I had no idea it existed. And then I find out it exists, and the scramble is on.... case in point. This year's A&G. I've avoided it. It's almost twice as expensive here as you can get it online... and there are other things I've been chasing, so I just ignored it.

 

And now this.

 

 and this.... (images ganked off of the www)

and apparently there are mini's and base cards as well. Red ink autos too.

Well I want them. If you have any of these base, mini's, relics or autos, I want them. Hit me up via email or in the comments.
And if you know of anyone who has these, send me that info too.... or let them know I'm looking.

Meanwhile I have to go scour the world wide web for some checklists of products that are coming out soon.....
