Trade with Sportscard Mask-a-Rade

#116 Emerald

Roger over at Sportscard Mask-a-Rade sent the above card in a recent trade.  I'm slowly getting the Emerald Braves together.  Roger also helped me out with my recent decision to pull together the '13 Heritage team set:

#s 126, 152, 300, 416, 417

Thanks for the trade Roger!!

Dragged into the Heritage Thing

I told everyone that I wasn't going to mess with Heritage this year.  Since I just recently returned to the hobby, I wanted to keep things simple.  (If simple means chasing after the entire '13 flagship rainbow!)  I did buy a few packs of Heritage to restock the trade bait and guess what?  I pulled more Braves than I usually do.  That was enough to convince me to put together the team set.  I however refuse to be pulled into chasing the Heritage rainbow.  Different color backs and refractors confuse me.

Nick over at Dime Boxes is the first blogger to help me out with some '13 Heritage:

#35 & 333

Nick also sent some 2012 Topps flagship and Updates:

#58, 85, 115, 524

These two sets should keep me busy until Series II comes out.  The various #'d '13 parallels have dried up on the Bay so the Rainbow Quest has slowed down a bit.  I've managed to pull off a few trades though, so it's all good.  I've updated my want list with '12 Topps and '13 Heritage.  Thanks for the trade Nick!!

Heritage Short Print?

I bought a pack jumbo of '13 Heritage.  I haven't paid much attention to the set but I do know that this is a short print:

#470

I also got:
10, 13, 20, 60, 80, 96, 116, 154, 176, 232, 242, 254, 268, 276, 292, 322, 352.

Two Braves were in the pack, 70 (McCann) & 218 (Beachy).  I can probably be convinced to give them up.  Everything is available for trades!

Heritage: It all has to go

This is just a quick post.  I bought a jumbo pack of 2013 Heritage at Target today.  I have no intentions of doing anything with this set, but just wanted to see what all the fuss was about.  I'm not posting pictures since we all know what they look like.  Everything here is available for trades.

30, 47, 57, 75, 83, 84, 162, 141, 205, 295, 311, 318, 339, 341, 346, 391, 408, 422

HC46 387/564 Chrome Refractor

The scanner didn't really pick up the shiny refractoriness  There must be a Boston fan out there that would give this thing a good home.
