6 out of the Next 10: 2019 Donruss

It has been quite a while since I've been able to write a completed set post, several months is probably how long.  

I don't know if I can call it a problem, or just my frugality/cheapness, but the 4 remaining sets that I have on the Next 10 left are giving me issues.

2018 Panini Prestige, I'm running into issues finding some of the cards anywhere.

2002-03 Upper Deck Vintage hockey, same issue as Prestige

2018-19 OPC hockey, cards are still overpriced for the rookies I still need.  Trying hard not to bite the bullet.

2013-14 Panini Prizm hockey might be the only set of the 4 that I can complete in the near future without gasping every time I put a card into an online cart.


These 4 cards were part of my long awaited COMC order, which took 3 months and 10 days to arrive.  It's a good thing my 55 card order didn't bog down the system...

The Drew Lock RC was the most expensive at $2.25, Bosa was just under $2 and the other 2 were under $1, all 4 prices I could easily justify paying.  

I have a lot of incoming cards that I want to get on the blog, so this 10 day run of posts that I'm on will probably continue for a little longer.

Not sure if that's a good or a bad thing....

Enjoy the hobby!

Hail Murray

Slowly knocking down the final few remaining cards from the 2019 Donruss FB set over the past couple of weeks.  This week's acquisition was the most expensive of the final 4, Kyler Murray of the Arizona Cardinals.



It took a few weeks of patience before I was able to grab a copy for just $20, about a third less than most of the cards I had seen on eBay.  Have 5 cards still to come my way, one of them from eBay which is taking its own sweet time (Daniel Jones) while the other 4 are still on the COMC wait list.

Speaking of wait lists...

well apparently I'm unable to screen grab my current place in line on the COMC website, so here it is in long form:

Date Requested:  7/3/21
Estimated Ship Date:  10/4/21
Items Ahead of My Order:  313,707

Each day this week, the estimated ship date has moved back one day, starting the week at 9/30 and moved slowly towards the original estimated ship date of 10/25.

October 4th is 2 weeks from Monday and I'm not very confident about them getting the cards picked and packed by then.   Still a wait and see game.

Enjoy the hobby!!
