All right... went in on some more card break auctions the past couple days. Yesterday, I wasn't able to get the Chiefs, but I traded somebody the Colts for KC tonight. He was a little disappointed by the end of it. How'd I do?

A numbered Kelce, a graded mint Reek and a Mahomes?

I'd say you did just fine

I got a couple of Rice rookies.

This card is a monster. It's numbered to 15. Won in a break and they didn't even have a top loader that it'd fit in. Here it is up next to a regular top loader

I love how cool this card is. It's /25. It's also metal.

Here’s a nice Rice card.

These are sweet, man!

Oh man, love that one. $80 buys it too. Not bad

Anyone planning to put in a bid on this?

It was a good move by that kid in 1914 to snitch this card from his pile.

Not sure where this goes, I picked it up at a card shop in Phoenix while at Royals Spring training. I would love to display it, but I don't really have any shelves and I have two sons who like to break things. All of my other stuff is wall hanging(pictures, jerseys, etc).

Willing to sell if anyone is interested. I paid $120 for it and it's a 10/10 patch auto.

Cool piece. I don't have a place for it either, yet, but I'll shoot you a PM about it.

Appreciate it, I responded to your DM. Yeah, I would love to display it, but my basement is short on shelves and I've got the wall covered with Chiefs/Royals stuff and some jerseys.

I didn't want that piece to stay in Arizona in a card shop, so I had to bring it home....lol

Plus it was 03' which was Holme's 27 TD season.

Funny story, I was driving down Metcalf in KC and Priest pulls up next to me in his Team Priest van. I motion him to roll down the window, we talk for maybe 20-30 seconds and he tosses me a Team Priest hoodie. Great guy

My 11 year old daughter bought her first two blaster boxes of men’s soccer cards. Girl got super excited when she pulled a cheap Messi card. She was disappointed when she didn’t find a Ronaldo card.

I bought a single jersey patch Ronaldo card and a “sealed” blaster box. I don’t trust eBay so I’m sure it’s already been opened and resealed. Either way, we’re opening a pack, sliding that patch card in it and resealing it. Can’t wait to see her face.

This is awesome parenting and something I’ll have to do someday.

Food for thought here… will that render unrealistic expectations in the future if she “pulls” that from a pack? Would you be better off giving her the card separate? Not sure what the right answer is and will probably be different by circumstance.

Went to a card show in Lee's Summit this weekend with my sons. They both collect, all of my cards are from the 80's and early 90's.

Saw a Kelce rookie and had to have it. Came back home and felt like completing the set, so I found just about every decent Chiefs player I could and their most affordable rookie card. Pat, Felix, and George all showed up this week and I'm waiting on 10-15 others.

Nice Kelce Chrome rookie. Interesting fact: if you don't already know, Uncle Travvy hates that card. Just a couple weeks ago it got brought up on the New Heights podcast and he went on a rant about it saying he hates the picture and that he won't sign it anymore if anyone asks him to; which promptly made all of the affordable signed ones on ebay disappear quickly.

Haha, thanks for that information. I watch the podcasts when I can, but did not hear that part.

Funny, because I was actually hoping to get him to sign it. Apparently he stops at the BP gas station at State Line and 133rd once a week according to some people that work there.

I forgot I bumped into Jim Kearney in Martin City at the driving range. I picked up his card in case I saw him again to get his signature as well.

The guy was 70 years old and still crushing 300-yard drives.

Big Red is now in the collection

Outstanding, look for the value to keep climbing on that one

Oh for sure, I’m sure there’s a Chief fan out there right now that’ll pay $150 for it.

It’s fairly reasonable given the auto and grade. I think to get a card graded is around $30, but I could be wrong.

Just throwing this out there, I’ve got a Sneed auto mini helmet Beckett coa plus $25 I’ll trade ya ?

Thanks for the offer, but I’ll have to pass.

When I got home from my deployment, I had about 100 packages from those dumb online breaks. Definitely didn't get my money's worth, but that's the gambling. Picking out a few dozen to send in for grading. Anybody here ever do that? Torn between PSA with the higher resale value or SGC because it's cheaper and online reviews say more reliable grading. No intent to sell besides possibly the Downtown posted above.

You post this and look what happens like 6 hours later.

You wonder why you’re not allowed to start threads.

Yeah, it’s pretty ****ing pathetic if true.

Seeking permanent ban for InMem58. He’s got bad karma again and it’s effecting the real KC Chiefs.

I'd hold off getting anything graded by SGC. PSA recently bought out SGC so who knows what happens there. If PSA gets rid of the SGC brand completely I'm not sure how well future value holds up on SGC slabs.

If you want an alternate to PSA grading probably CGC, which used to be CSG is the way to go IMO. CGC just recently acquired JSA as well so they are expanding in the market. And with CGC partnering with Topps and Fanatics I can't help but think they are making a real run at market share. Who knows what the grading landscape will be in a decade.

They're going to kick him out of the NFL.

$5 is the best I can do.

How about now?? 😬
