Earlier this week I wrote about how I was unfamiliar with the Pristine Ten-Minute auction operation and accidentally won four mystery boxes. ooooooops.

Well, they’re here.

And I can say, I’m not that upset.

Here’s the list:

1. 2020 Donruss Optic My House! LeBron James CGC 10

2. 2023 Topps Now Wemby RC

3. 2023 Wild Card Drake Maye On The Clock RC 4/25

4. 2019 Panini Titan Shohei Ohtani SGC 9.5

5. 2025 Bowman Chrome Bo Bichette 164/399

6. 1976 Topps Charlie Spikes authenticated autograph

7. Dennis Rodman autographed Bulls photo

Not too bad. My first LeBron, Ohtani, Wemby, and Charlie Spikes.

I also bought two more boxes. I may have a problem.

As I am discovering the “hobby” again, I was force-fed the ads for Pristine auction site and, well, I may have a won a few. I didn’t pay a ton, I see some going to over $100, and that’s wild to me. But, I kept thinking that I didn’t win because it would disappear from the “Winning” section. I finally figured out that I won 5 lots. So, we’ll see how my ooooooops will turn out.

Whatnot seems like an easy way to over pay for a card. Heck no. I want time to see what the card value is actually before I spend money on it. Even if it’s for my PC. I saw one guy accidentally paid $1200 for $30 Jordan. Yikes.

Joe Mauer Heritage - purchased a 7# box of misc cards from Goodwill and pulled this…(paid 15.00 for box)

I went a little crazy at my local show yesterday. I could hardly find any cards to buy except for at one table. I spent whole budget just with this one dealer, but it was well worth it. I bought some singles and a big box full of cards. In total I spent around $160 and it was well worth it. There are lots of nice 2014-15 Prizm silvers and other parallels along with some other nice cards. There was quite a bit of football in the box but I think I can bundle together some of the big names like Herbert and Love to make some money off the football cards. What do you guys think of the purchase?

I can not leave them on the shelf when I see them. Dont ask me what i pulled thats not important
