A reason not to be angry on Valentine’s Day: Contest

Contest is over:

 

First things first. Misery Packs are for sale this weekend. You buy them on Ebay or  by messaging me on any platform. Buy them here on Ebay.

Now, contest time. Winner gets the card and some others, meaning you get a Misery Pack. (Note, you will get way better cards if you buy a Misery Pack.)

This highlight is from a Twitter contest win from @AwesomeHotPacks a.k.a. BTB Hot Packs. I won one of their 100 chase packs that they put together. They were selling these for $8.99.

Today’s highlight is a quad card from Derek Carr that I got from Curtis at We The People.

20150729_115025I am ecstatic to add this to my collection. As a small time collector, I don’t own many quad pieces. This is probably my first of a starting quarterback.

Judging by all of these contest wins that I am posting, it may look like I enter a lot of Twitter contests. Truth is, while I do enter some, I don’t enter a lot. I see people entering every contest that comes across their timeline. That is not me. Continue reading “This is what’s great about the hobby #5”

Today’s winning highlights winnings from someone who I have been following on Twitter for about a year. Dave Palagi is someone the hobby holds in high regard. There are 2 times that show just how amazing he is: 1. When his Twitter got deleted, #FindPalagi was trending until he turned up (&) 2. I will never forget how awesome it was of him when on his birthday he did a Twitter giveaway because he said that is what he loves doing. After a a year of following him, I finally won one of his giveaways. It was a nice mix of autographs, game used, inserts, and a pack of Upper Deck 1990 baseball cards. I loved it because it the exact type of lot that I buy all the time on Ebay; and realistically, I would’ve bid $15 to $18 on something like this. Dave is definitely worth a follow: @DPcards. Thanks Dave, I am saving your address so if I ever come across a Dre card, I can pay it forward to you. Continue reading “This is what’s great about the hobby #4”

This is what’s great about the hobby #3

Contest is now over

Today’s contest win, highlights a mini lot that I won on Twitter from @markscards20150727_124632This marks the second straight contest that I received an Adrian Beltre numbered card. The reason why I entered this contest, besides the fact that I didn’t own any numbered mini numbered cards, was because of the mini Jose Bautista jersey. It is a beautiful card. If companies are going to give smaller swatches, mini cards are the way to go for them because the size doesn’t take away from the card. The 3 Larry Walker cards are simply a toss in because he is an awesome guy. Thanks Mark.

This is what’s great about the hobby #2

Contest is now over

As I said, I have been on fire when it comes to winning cards lately. I wish that the luck translated into winning the lotto but in the meantime I will take it for what it is: great people in the hobby being generous. The next handful of posts will highlight that. I do want to note that for every 3 contests I win, there is 1 person who does not send anything. I don’t get what people gain out of picking a winner for these contests and not sending the winner anything.  Continue reading “This is what’s great about the hobby #2”

Pay it forward #1

Contest is now over

Happy Sunday Funday. I know some collectors are running amazing Twitter contests right and I hope that you have good luck with those.
I have been on a contest tear lately. As a result, I want to pay it forward. I posted a picture of what will be given away. The giveaway will end July 31st, one hour after the MLB trade deadline. Why that time? Well because I know that is a heart-wrenching day to be a sports fan and I want to make it better for one of you-unless your team pulled of the next Jeff Bagewell/John Smoltz/Lou Brock/etc. deal,  then I want to make your day better. Each day in between, I will post about a giveaway that I won, and highlight a piece of this giveaway.
To enter: you must be from the domestic 48 states, unless you are willing to pay shipping, then by all means enter. You can only enter once. Simply comment on this post with your email address or Twitter handle. I will take all of the entries and place them in a randomizer. This post will be pinned to the twitter account. If you don’t see think that you will enjoy winning these cards, please pass and let someone who wants them have a chance. I would rather have people who want these cards to have a better chance at winning than have a lot of entries who don’t care. These are cards, and stickers, from my personal collection.
