This is the last Instagram post for now, at least of stuff that I have gotten in recently. I do have one more trade pending, which I think will be in sometime next week. That being said, I completed a trade with a Dodgers fan names Javier in exchange for several rookie cards, three of which I kept (one obviously isn't a RC) and two I will flip on to friends.
I'm sure I probably owned the above 2008 Bowman Andrew McCutchen at some point, but I didn't make him a PC until a couple years ago. The card doesn't sell for much, but it is still a RC, and I'll take it.
This Justin Verlander is one that I know I have, but it is part of my complete set. So, I figured since Javier was offering it, it wouldn't be a bad idea to go ahead and pick up another and stash it with my RCs. I also don't feel like I have shown enough 2006 Topps on here. I remember the set being the first to come out after I jumped back into cards (2005 Topps was already out, of course) and I was just as excited when it was released and I saw it for the first time as I was when 1991 Topps came out. The feeling I got as a kid when the new set of cards came out is unrivaled, I think. It kind of sucks now that we get the next year's design so early now. I miss the days when you didn't know until you opened that first pack, and that's how it was for me when 2006 came out. I do still have an empty box for 2006.
Finally, Javier had one 2013 Topps emerald parallel I needed for my set. Yes, I'm still working on it. I hope to have this set completed sometime soon, but it definitely has slowed down. If anyone has Series 1 or 2 emerald parallels, please consult my wishlist and help me out!
Thanks for the trade, Javier. I really appreciate it!
