George Carlin on Fanatics: There’s a reason. There’s a reason for this, there’s a reason prices continue to rise and QC sucks, and it’s the same reason that it will never, ever, ever be fixed. It’s never gonna get any better. Don’t look for it. Be happy with what you get.

ahhhhh damn. RIP Chuck Norris

@WaxMetrix i mainly collect Topps, particularly his LAD numbered cards with strong pedigree. The Deckle insert is nice though!

@ThoseBackPages You can get a rookie Deckle Edge Ohtani for the same price range. I mean, there a quite a few more of them, but they don't have any parallels so, are there really? I'd take a sweet Ohtani rookie over a 9th year Ohtani /99 every day of the week.

Dude, i cannot bring myself to pay 300 for this years Vintage Stock Ohtani

@eddiemcpigskin @JunkWaxTwins YES YOU DO!

@JunkWaxTwins @ThoseBackPages No!!!! I’ll have to take a look and watch!

i get that people do song “first reaction!”s for the clicks. But i wonder if they go back and listen to it when theyre not being paid for it There are songs ive heard hundreds of times & more They get better with age and listens. i do hope they do treat themselves to more listens

@eddiemcpigskin There are songs (and albums) that just get better as we get older

@ThoseBackPages For instance I’m on a Beatles kick right now and some of these songs sound better than I’ve ever heard them before!

@eddiemcpigskin RIght on! So many layers. So good. i am always dumbfounded when i stop and think that they were all under 30 years of age when they split up. The Rubber Soul to Abby Road period never sounds "stale" to me.

@BlowoutBuzz Talking about Topps, Sir.

@ThoseBackPages More will arrive. It’s Day 2.

@CGCCards i have a Card Saver Album going of cards i would like slabbed. Cant lie though, i fear you guys will raise National prices AGAIN and i dont know what i am going to do then

What card are you thinking about submitting next? 🤔

I prefer non-auto cards

@TheCardPG Second TC Super, and the first that anyone has seen.

How is this 30k ? Like no auto or anything. You know how many curry autos you can get for 30k.

@nut_history i think NOWs are a nice ~$5 reminder of a moment in time. i would not spend significan money on them

@ThoseBackPages Fan or no?

Ohtani prices can’t continue to climb, right? Wax prices can’t continue to climb, right? Lets see how many people complain they weren’t able to pre-order whatever Fanatics releases this week.

@packaddictsnw how much are those boxes now?

There’s no way this Ohtani base card is selling for $4.5-5k. Pop 5000. This won’t end well.
