I picked up a pair of 2013 Topps Sticker cards on eBay for less than a quarter. Both cards are Giants: Sergio Romo and Matt Cain. I have inadvertently been accumulating Cain's cards for quite some time, however I have very few of Romo. I'm not a big fan of sticker cards, in general. These cards remind me of the sticker cards found in the 1980's. The stickers don't actually have a practical purpose. But if we need them, they will be there.
I picked up a lot of 5 2012 Topps Update cards of Matt Cain on eBay. Somehow, I only paid 16 cents shipped for the entire lot. This is a checklist card that features Cain’s perfect game. I typically don’t like checklist cards. Checklists have a segregated binder away from my “real” cards. However, these cards are only half-checklists, so they will earn a spot in my Giants binder.
I was fortunate enough to acquire not one, not two, but three 2013 Topps Chrome cards of Matt Cain on eBay for a grand total of 11 cents. (Photo of the back for contrast!) These are my first Chrome cards of the year. I usually don’t buy packs because they are overpriced. These are decent looking cards though of a legitimate star pitcher. I will likely pick up a few more Chrome cards here and there. But I won’t be wasting my money on packs or boxes.
