I have been out of town for a few days if anyone has noticed a lack of posts for a few days. One of my favorite things about coming back from a trip, besides of course seeing the lovely wife and kids, is ripping open any packages that have come my way, even though I know what is in them already. One of the packages that came in this weekend had more than I expected though, and it made my day!
Cheap Card Collecting is the kind of blog I aspire to run. It has a point of view (how to collect on a budget) and looks great too! Anthony from CCC contacted me about a couple of Bowman Platinums I pulled, and we worked out what I thought was a 2 for 2 trade. This is what I knew I was getting:
2 Bowman Platinum Christian Colon (Base and Purple Parallel). Colon is a top prospect for the Royals and plays for the Northwest Arkansas Naturals who are nearby the Doon household. My hope is to get one or both of these autographed.
But not only did I get the cards I wanted, Anthony also added some very cool Felix Jones cards:
The Certified card on the left is numbered to 250! And the Topps Magic card is very, very slick. My eyes may or may not have welled up when I saw these.
And to top it off, he added a card of my man
D-Mac, and a Topps Diamond Duos card of Josh Hamilton. Bullseyes all around!
I assume if you are a serious card collector, you are aware of
Cheap Card Collecting. If not, do yourself a favor and check it out!

Thanks for the kind words, they mean a lot. It's awesome that you enjoy the cards!
I'll get a post on your cards up when I get home this week.
