Author - StevenWelcome to my blog! I collect hockey cards since my godmother gave me three packs of 1991-92 Pro Set for my 7th birthday. After collecting sets when I was young, my collection now focuses only on Pavel Bure! Here I'll talk about some accomplishments, stories, and rants about the hobby. |
6/9/2020 0 Comments I did it! Card #2000 is here!I can't believe that this is happening. This number was so far when I jumped back into the hobby five years ago. If you'd told me that not only would I have made it, but that I'd surpassed that mark, I wouldn't have believed you. Two thousand cards. 2000. Man. It's an incredible feeling. So many hours dedicated to the search. So many trades, purchases, and sometimes, freebies. So many friends along the way. So many stories. One of the 42 cards package that arrived yesterday : A 2002-03 UD Top Shelf Sweet Sweaters /50! I was at 1982 cards a couple of days ago when someone reaches out to me saying he is selling his Bure collection. I told him that I take everything I don't have. The package arrived yesterday (Monday), but I wasn't able to get it at the post office. It was a 42 cards purchase, and I was so excited when it arrived! Plus the other one that came with this package, I'm now at 2025 different cards!
Thank you to everyone that helped me to get to this mark. Without your help, I couldn't do it. And now, you know what is the next mark, right? #roadto2100 So except a lot a photos in the upcoming days!

4/23/2020 0 Comments Nice trade with Scott CampbellI don't know why, but it's very rare for me to trade cards with others, mainly because I don't have many traders (and I prefer buying). But sometimes, like last week, someone on Twitter posted a debate on what piece of the jersey his Pavel Bure card was. So of my friends tagged me saying I probably know the answer. While debating with him, we talked a bit about Pavel Bure. His name is Scott Campbell (@SoupyOnAir) on the Twitterverse. A couple of days later he sent me a message saying that he wanted to trade this 2013-14 Select Totally Certified Clear Cloth Green to me. He said that he wanted to have his name on my website for contributing to my collection. Well, Scott, this time has arrived! The card in question So we manage a deal where both of us were happy and I received it today! Don't worry Scott, your name will be below it when I reached this set on my website!
Thanks again for the trade! I'm on pace to reach 2020 cards before December 31st! I'm currently at 1934 different cards, so if you have some I need, feel free to use the contact page to message me, or you can use social media! |
