Collector Zone _ Show and Tell _ My Sort-Of Expo Pickups, and BGS Results

Posted by: geschrocks33 Nov 15 2018, 10:27 AM

While I was unable to attend the expo, I still managed a few pickups from there and via a trade. Gene (blueknight91) and I met up Wednesday to complete a trade while he was in town, and then he proceeded to be my eyes at the expo grabbing a few things for me. We then topped it off by sitting 2 rows behind the Sabres bench for Tuesday's Sabres/Lightning game which was awesome.

Also, Thursday when I popped in for my S1 boxes at my LCS, the BGS grading stuff had just returned so I picked up my submissions from that.

Here are the BGS results:

Sebastian Aho YG - 9.5

Alex Kerfoot YG Canvas - 9.5

Tyson Jost YG Canvas - 9.5

Mikko Rantanen YG - 9.5

No 10's this time around but everything coming back 9.5 is great. The Aho is available, all others are keepers.

Now onto the pickups. These first 2 are actually a purchase from someone in CO, but Gene did hand delivery service on these:

Tage Thompson FW Spectrum FX & FW Spectrum FX Gold /50

Jack Eichel Spectrum FX and Spectrum FX Gold /50

The following 2 come from the expo, towards my still ongoing 2010 Team USA YG project. I *think* that these 2 are the last 2 needed. If so I'll show off the completed project soon.

Jimmy Howard & John Carlson YG's

The next 3 come via trade from Gene:

Alexander Nylander Black Lustrious Rookies Patch/Auto /65

https://flic.kr/p/2boa7sR

Mikko Rantanen Foil YG

https://flic.kr/p/QD5x9h

Jack Eichel UD Premier Rookie Patch /199

https://flic.kr/p/QD5x4s

And the last one, the best of the bunch in my opinion was scooped up for me by Gene in Toronto.

09-10 Superlative Famous Fabrics Number 1/1 - Paul Stastny

So there you have it. Happy to have gotten some things even though I couldn't make the trip. Shoutout to Gene for the trade and helping me out with acquiring the goods.

Thanks for looking, comments appreciated as always.

Nice stuff as always. That Superlative defines Superlative. Wow, that is nice. If I pulled something that nice, I wouldn't sell or trade it.
