That card is beautiful and the price is great for you, but is an exact example of how watered down the "game used" material sub-genre of the hobby has gotten. To be able to buy that card for less than $10 already is just ridiculous. Good for us guys that collect lower-end players though.

So got 11 packages in the mail today - Canada Post is moving again! Gonna open a couple today. Should be lots of Poverty posts. The first two are pretty big ones.

Alfonzo McKinnie Black 1/1 Auto $26.99



Pascal Siakam Hoops 1/1 $33.75 after coupon.

[smalltown]

Got an absolute steal on this one! $16!!!! Bought it before i even realized it was a RC.



And this Case hit Lowry for $2.75

[SteveO21]

^^^ Those Raps pickups are sweet! It's amazing how cheap you can find a case hit these days when the player is a mega-star.

[Jpayne7787]

Got everything besides the Doncic silver for less than $40 total, I call that a win!

Thanks guys! If you like the Wade... got a big one incoming

[AbraCalabro]

Wow, that Hoops 1/1 and the Stockton are my faves. However, quality overall is very high. Super hunting skills, guys! Nice!!!

Several poverty pickups for me in the past couple weeks. Most of these were for roughly $10 or less.

^^^ SOLID pickups all across the board for those prices. It amazes me that they can get such great photography on cards and don't do it more often. I love the Holiday auto the most, the white overlay with the trim lettering looks great. I'll bet it lights up real nice.

Another 1/1 - $12

That's a great price. The Sabonis popped up a month or so ago but sold for like $70.

I saw that. Had a bid on it too. Surprised it went so high.

I wasn't toooo surprised but it still went a little higher than I expected. He still didn't have much stuff in a Pacers uniform out yet at that point and it is a pretty awesome looking card. I thought it would go around $50-60 because I was watching the Pacers stuff that was on the market go much higher than I expected in many cases.

Ya I’ve noticed an uptick on Pacer prices this last few months or so.

[AbraCalabro]

omg those 1/1s are so damn nice dude

[duron]

Got this in yesterday from COMC for $15.25, just an iconic set to me. Has there ever been a background more perfectly suited for a refractor? I've never owned a refractor version but I've had a standard (and horribly off-centered) Pippen since pulling it when the product was brand new. The strange thing about both sets were that they each had the same odds - 1:36.

If you look closely you can see it has a horizontal refractor line between the team logo and name. The COMC scan hid it completely despite my desktop Chrome zoom efforts, but since it's in sort of an out of the way spot and has great centering, I'm going to hang onto it.

And some more poverty Penny came in today. What a set

I don't see any greening on that bad boy right there. Super card, what an action shot they used for that one! I remember pulling a Jason Kidd back in the day thinking I was going to get a ton of sweet cards from a friend of mine who collected Jason Kidd. Unfortunately it was around the time every one was getting out of cards and into other (stupid) things like girls and fashion.

The Inside Info cards are awesome, I like every single one of them. Great colors, great design and really cool photos, whether unique or action packed, 10/10 cards.

I got in some cheap stuff recently, here's a couple of them. This Collector's Choice I only had one copy of and I put that into the set, so recently landed this one for the player collection. Also I thought I had this Metal card, but apparently I didn't, so I took care of that.

I got some other stuff in too, will post those later.
