Any card collectors here??
 
I have been ordering tons of cool saints cards on ebay lately. I used to collect as a kid but just recently in the last couple of months caught the fever again to collect. They make tons off cool ones with jersey inserts, autographs, ect. Ill post some pics if anyone wants to see some. If anyone else collects I would like to see yalls as well.

Katrina took my childhood collection. I had some very valuable rookie cards... all down the drain.

It is cool to see some of the stuff they do with cards now-a-days. Uni inserts, game used ball swatches, autos.... pretty cool stuff.

Show what you got.

Well I usually buy just saints players on ebay but I decided to buy a few packs at my local card store. This is my pride and joy. The luckest pull of my life.... The odds were like 1:5000

Only 20 made in the world

Im sorry to hear that papz. A lot of mine got destroyed too so I figured I would start all over again. Its been pretty fun waiting for mail day to come and get a cool card. Hey better than getting bills in the mail huu :D

Not to knock your Meachem card or anything, but dont u find it kinda funny it had a game jersey and a game ball with it, when i dont think he touched either last year????

I have been an avid collector for about 20 years plus. I couldn't begin to show stuff as I probably have tens of thousands of cards.

LOL, I was thinking the same thing when I bought it. Its probably part of someone elses jersey and just a piece of a random nfl ball :)

I am a big card collector. I, just like Papz lost all of my stuff in a big flood on the Westbank back in 78, but I've repurchased alot of the cards. My dad worked for the Parish and used to meet alot of the players back in the day. It was alot easier to get to them back in the late 60's and 70's. Had autographed picks from just about every big name Saint, Manning, Abramowicz, Hargett, Dempsey, Gilliam, etc. but so goes life. I'll try to take some photos today and post them for everyone. If anyone wants to sell something or an entire collection let me know.
