Not hockey related but I’m sticking with Vintage 1950’s Mickey Mantle, Ted Williams cards. I think the vintage stuff will hold their value better when they get to be 100+ years old and are in good condition.

So there must be a whole base set of die casts in the Tim Hortons series this year. I've bought 13 packs so far and I have at least 10 die cast with no duplicates. It'd be nice to stumble on a franchise trio or a clear cut. Boring cards.

Looks to be over 50.

They're releasing more of her lately. More autos, GU memorabilia and I think she might have some more recent base cards

I think I have some of the early 90's Classic of her. Are they worth anything?

There are 50 die cuts. 1 in 4 packs so you're doing well on that one. I bought maybe 10 or 12 pacls. Got one clear cut: Quinn Hughes.

Cards sent to Beckett late February of this year STILL have not come back. Im starting to get concerned. I sent another batch in March before the COVID stuff to. Any of you guys get your cards back from BGS yet? I dont wanna go to PSA for some of my other gems but im beginning to think maybe I should :(

BGS took me 10 months last year. I sent my latest to PSA in August, and they are still in the initial "research" stage.

I still had the Beckett with Manon Rheaume on the cover but I think I threw it away earlier this year with all my junk cards from that era that I no longer had the space to keep.

Should be back before Christmas from what I've heard. Also not a bad box of series 1.

How does insurance work for this?

Have never sent anything away because I've never felt compelled to do so (also scared the card(s) would never come back or get lost), but curious just for reference going forward.

I sent mine through a local shop. Im not sure about the insurance. Im sure Jim and Moe are being constantly bombarded with the same question from their other customers.

Question, how do the Tim Hortons cards compare to regular Upper Deck cards? Same quality? Would the cards be of more or less value in the future?
Tim's are a bit cheaper. I wouldn't expect them to hold value outside of the Franchise Trios and Clear Cut subsets.

Lol was this taken on Sunday? If so I might have seen you at Wests. Hows your Makar PC looking these days? You going to go in on Bowen aswell?
Was there Saturday, probably won't go too hard on Byram, he's never going to get the offensive minutes with Makar here.

I’m giving up on Tim’s cards, I’ve bought around 20 packs and haven’t gotten a single Oilers card. Luckily I was able to sell the 2 franchise trio’s I got to make back the money spent.

Opened the blasters... All the base and young guns have the edges bent in and corners rounded. Pretty disappointing UD. You can feel a sharp edge on the back.

Did pull a Ceremonial Puck Drop card... Didn't know you could even pull them out of retail. Nice surprise, but having all the YGs damaged sucks..,. Also no Laf! Did pull a Kravstov canvas.

That Black Lustrous is a beaut. One of my favorite looking cards of all time. I’ve got the No. 8/25 in my collection.
