Did you order a Topps Now Machado in Padres gear? I did...

I did not.
My thing is rookies/prospects. Get in early then cash out when they hit.
Brent Rooker and Colton Welker are guys on my radar.

I just like what I like. I'm 11 cards away from the complete base set of 2019 Topps Series 1. Trying to decide if I keep buying packs or if I just buy singles off ebay to complete the set.

Basically, I'm trying to develop a side business through eBay or whatever once I have enough built up.
I also randomly buy cards that I dig, which is why I got a Glasnow auto from Gypsy Queen. It's a cool looking product.
I've also got my eye out for Breaking Bad cards that got released through Allen & Ginter a few years back.

That's the kind of thing I'd have to look at.
It could be a subset or something. Different border or some slight variation.
Those kinds of cards are strange.

I'll take a couple pictures when I get home and post them.

I hit a Jonathan India auto numbered to 25 last night.
One of the Reds top prospects. Got the spot on the cheap and the card could potentially triple what I put into it.
Doing pretty well pull wise lately.

Nice work. I'm 6 cards from the full base set of series 1 after last night. I think I'm just going to order the remaining cards off ebay.

Very nice. Also, I think you may have gotten one of those 150 years of baseball cards.
Im not so huge on the design of series one this year, it's very nitpicky but I dont like the last name bigger than the first name set up.
Have you seen Topps Heritage stuff Ferd? I think you'd dig it.

It doesn't have the 150 years of baseball mark on the front. I've gotten several of those and they're not individually numbered.
I think the design is cool...I guess I'm not so picky.
I plan on getting some of the Heritage cards when I find them...actually got a pack of 2016 Heritage yesterday and got a nice Bryce Harper insert and a Whitey Ford insert.

That stuff is so cool. I love those old school designs.
That's an odd pull Ferd. That Series One stuff tends to have SO many subsets/inserts.

Yeah...I haven't found any mention of them anywhere...I'm hoping it's a mistake.
Is Daniel Poncedeleon any good?

Yeah...I haven't found any mention of them anywhere...I'm hoping it's a mistake. Is Daniel Poncedeleon any good? He's the dude that almost threw a no-hitter his first game. He's pretty okay but he's not a top of the rotation starter or anything. Maybe a 4th or 5th starter.
