Set: Completed.
After years of searching and a white whale lost in the mail, I’ve finally assembled the entire 2002 Pacific Crown Royale Tripe Threads set.
I’m so happy, in awe of this piece of history, honored to own it, and thankful for all the help I received along the way.
I firmly believe all parallel cards should state what the parallel is on the back.
No more guessing if it’s teal or green, pandora or razzle dazzle; sprinkles or 90s cups.
Who says no?

It’s been quite the journey, but after years of saving and collecting, I finally earned enough money to purchase an unlimited data plan so that I can screenshot a photo of a Joe Burrow Flawless RPA.

Apparently it was not a good time to ask if we we could swing by my LCS on the way.
I just needed toploaders.
Found on eBay: Panini went and made a card of Eli Manning in a Chargers uniform.
It’s part of the 2022 Select short print insert set “Multiverse”, which I am now V EXCITED to see the checklist for.

I keep my content here almost exclusively card related, but last night in rec league softball I hit a two-run walkoff double and it was one of the highlights of my life.
I never got to play organized sports as a kid, so this was a moment I’ve been chasing forever.
If the cost of cards was solely determined by how cool they look, this would have been $100.
Lucky for me it was only $2.
A color match Prizm with the Downtown lasers on it? Get in my PC.

I got this case hit of Ja’Marr Chase for less than $10.
It’s instantly one of my favorites.
A few months ago I put in a $20 bid on this card thinking there was no way it would go for that little even though it’s pretty low end.
Well… a Burrow rookie /49 is a Burrow rookie /49.
Every year, the “Mother’s Day card” I get my mom is a card from the Mother Lode Gold Standard set.
She doesn’t follow football and absolutely hates this tradition 🧡
Imagine paying $2,500 for a box of 2022 National Treasures Football and pulling a *checks notes* BARBARA WALTERS AUTO

on YouTube just did.
An eBay package showed as delivered but wasn’t in my mailbox.
Knowing that sometimes they get delivered a day later than the scan shows, I am waiting on it and not immediately contacting the seller in a tizzy.
I think this is one of the most visually stunning cards in my collection.
The fact that it’s “worth” less than $20 is irrelevant to me.
It’s simply beautiful.
Ok this is absolutely crazy. But hear me out. IF the Bengals go to the Super Bowl… I wanna be there.
So I’m selling the crown jewel of my modest collection to help make it happen. Any help would be appreciated.
$2,500.

community for this unbelievably kind RAK. Thank you!
Not only is it my favorite player (Ocho), but my favorite type of card (game-used), and favorite genre (2004 Fleer).
Thank you to
@MrKdub
and whomever else was involved. I am beyond grateful 🥹
Was watching old videos of 2020 Honors and saw something I would submit for the category of “coolest card you might not know exists.”
Not mine, but dang!
IT HAS ARRIVED!!
Joe Burrow’s only pro uniform jersey card that isn’t the dreaded “not associated.”
This player-worn piece of awesome is also a gold pandora /10.
I’m in love.
This was listed as a reasonably priced Buy It Now with offers on.
But this is not the kind of card you take a chance waiting on.
Ja’Marr Chase 2021 Chronicles Gala Rookie /8. No parallels. Rarest rookie card design. Newest addition to the PC.
I bought a BIN card on eBay that was way underpriced. The seller realized after I paid that it was underpriced, cancelled my order saying it was damaged/OOS but relisted the card.
What would you do as the buyer/seller here?
@CardPurchaser
I CAN’T BELIEVE IT!
YEARS OF SEARCHING FOR THIS CARD. I HAD NEVER EVEN SEEN A PICTURE OF IT.
AND YESTERDAY IT RANDOMLY POPS UP ON EBAY. INSTANT BUY IT NOW. AND NOW I ANXIOUSLY HOPE IT GETS HERE SAFELY.
I AM SO HAPPY I COULD CRY!!!
I remember when I bought a Carson Palmer (🤮) Fleer Ultra RC in 2004 for $12. I haggled down from $15 and I was nervous about spending so much on one card.
I feel beyond grateful to be able to pick up cool cards like this.
The first auto I ever pulled was from 2004 UD Diamond Pro Sigs. It was a “guaranteed” auto from a $20 blaster (those were the days).
20 years later, I found an auto of my favorite player ever from the same product.
Nostalgia and happiness 😊
I had to get a picture of them paired together.
Chad Johnson rookie ticket autos from 2001 and 2021!
My signature would probably get a lot shorter too after 20 years and tens of thousands of autographs.

Recently got this card in.
Photos don’t do it justice. It’s beautiful.
It’s been on my desk all day and I’ve picked it up to look at it 10+ times.
Cards are art.

Buy cards for small amounts of money and then sell them for larger amounts of money.

My Desmond Ridder cards will always be valuable to me because 1) I loved watching him play at UC and he brought more excitement to Bearcat football than ever before. And 2) value isn’t just about money.
My second-favorite pickup from last weekend’s show.
Rookie of the Year Contenders cards hit different when it’s the guy who was actually rookie of the year.
As a fan of game-used cards, 2000 Leaf Limited might be the greatest execution ever.
Look at this beauty on eBay. The front labels what each piece is AND the date of the game it was used in.
The back has clear authenticity language and photos of the items.
10/10.
If I was smart I would have bought one of these like a month ago so that I could post it today and I’d be so cool.
But I didn’t, so I have to give the disclaimer that this isn’t my card.
This was a punch in the gut. Met a super nice guy through FB marketplace. Did several deals - no issues.
Two weeks ago we agree on a deal for him to buy a box of 2021 Spectra and said we’d meet up today. Now he’s backing out because Fields and TLaw regressed.
So disappointing.
If anyone can find this card at the National and get it to me when I’m there Friday, I will give them and someone who RTs this $30.
Any help is appreciated. Been searching for this card to compete the set for years. I bought it on eBay a few weeks ago & it was lost in the mail.
