Trading Card Discussion Thread

an awesome little collection you have going on there mate!!

the big question is what is next!!

Hehe, cheers dude!

I've still got 4x Sets to get into sleeves but I think I may go after the Casper: The Movie Fleer-Ultra set or grab a couple more Scifi/Fantasy Artist cards, as there are sets by Don Maitz, Robh Ruppel, Gerald Brom, Joe Jusko, Michael Whelan, Bernie Wrightson & Julie Bell (Amongst a number of others ) that really take my fancy.

at the last Penrith Fair i submitted a couple of cards for grading as an experiment to see how they came back and if it is something i would do more of.

and i must say the results and the experience was outstanding

firstly Card Grading Australia provided an excellent service and were alway quick to respod to emails

secondly the cards are gradded out of 100 so i am pretty wrapped with the results of the 4 i submitted







they really do look good and display pretty nice

and Thirdly

the grading even has an option to comeback with a report out lining the points to determine the rating



so if anyone has a favorite card or valuble card i would recommend the Grading process as now they are professionally protected and look good to..

Anyone got an Dragon Ball Z CCG card or packs they want to part with?

I've got oodles of doubles (or 25) of many of the cards, if you let me know what you are after I'll have a look. I've been wanting to get rid of the (no joke) boxes of spares I've got, but it's not even worth putting them on eBay!

Only don't have ultra rares, which I need myself, but refuse to fork out $50+ for one card. I guess they will rise in price thanks to the new Panini release which may allow use of all previous cards.

so i ordered some Guardians of the Galaxys Boxes and a side order of iron Man 3 retail packs which arrived yesterday (those on twitter have already seen my hits)

Iron Man 3 were retail rack packs, 30 cards and 2 stickers, aimed at kids mostly as the inserts are few and far between but i was lucky enough to pull 1

Stan Lee Comic Creator Autograph (odss of 1:1800)



pretty pleased with that hit!!

onto the GotG

Box 1
Star Lord Sketch by Chris Henderson
Purple parallel of 88 #d 05/25
Cosmic Stings Oversize Star-Lord (CSO1)
Cosmic Strings Quad Ronan Nebula Rhomen Dey Nova Prime (CSQ2)
and Jumbo G2



Box 2

Jumbo G22
Cosmic Strings Trio Ronan Nebula Korath (CST-2)
Cosmic Stings Dual Star-Lord Gamora (CSD-1)



and looks like i was dudded a hit in box 2

Guardians is a nice set but with heaps of inserts and short printed cards it will be a tough set to complete

Also when you compare something like Guardians to what topps have done with TF AOE there is absolutly no value in the TF product

Been a while since I've posted and as such have a fair-whack of things to post, but in the meantime I'll share my most recent acquisition!

Here's the Complete, 119-card Base Set of 1995 Fleer Ultra - Casper: The Movie Trading Cards!

It's been a spirited kind of month!

Say, would you guys be interested if a offloaded some of my old Yu-Gi-Oh cards? Just want to know before I start anything.

Wow, I can't believe I've skipped over this thread for so long. I myself have been collecting Pokemon cards on/off. I now got the base set complete with the help of Kalel. I'm interested in buying more from anyone looking to offload Pokemon cards.
