Exclamation Archives retail - by FAR my best ever retail hit
Got a tattoo this afternoon and was feeling really good, so decided to stop by Target and pick up some cards. Grabbed two racks and three blasters of Archives and holy crap.

Got a couple decent peach and light blue parallels including a Zach Hample (ugh) /150 auto, but the big news was this that I pulled out of the first blaster pack after shuffling them all together, numbered 19/25.



Going up on eBay shortly with a high BIN but I'm willing to listen to offers via PM if you'd like.

Congrats! Gives me hope that there's still good coming out of retail!

Archives retail has been pretty good to me overall - Jeter retrospective /99, Harmon Killebrew /25, a handful of autos including a Tommy Lasorda (too bad the fan favorites checklist has some... not so great names on it), and plenty of peach and blue parallels.

But this takes the cake by a long shot.

1: Very nice hit. Congrats!
2: Take some high resolution pix of the bottom corners. Maybe it's just your pix but they both look soft. I can see very picky buyers being a pain in your eBay neck.

Good eye and good call. They are a bit soft. In the process of scanning at a higher DPI and adding corner images of front and rear to the auction.

Thanks for the advice!

Sell to buy a sleeve of tattoos. Go back to Target. Profit.
