dyslexic nam Posted March 27, 2023 Author Share Posted March 27, 2023 alright - will do an order before the deadline. Thanks narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted March 27, 2023 Author Share Posted March 27, 2023 Was crunching the numbers and it may be a bit more than the Kone cards (exchange rate sucks and they charged me HST last time). 10 cards at $50 USD Plus 15% tax = $57.50 Plus $15 shipping = $72.50 At current Visa exchange rates, $72.50 USD = a bit over $100 CAD Works out to just over $10 CAD per card before shipping. Add in cost of a stamp, envelope and toploader and $12 per card is about break even (minus $1 if you get 2). I may also post in a FB group which could bring the cost down a bit if there was interest. If the order got to 20 cards it would be $80 USD for just the cards. Plus 15% tax = $92 Plus $15 shipping = $107 USD At the current Visa exchange rates, $107 USD = around $150 CAD Works out to $7.50 per card which would be around $9.50 per card shipped.

dyslexic nam Posted March 29, 2023 Author Share Posted March 29, 2023 (edited) Just got all my cards shipped from SMC in the US. Going to be a very nervous few days until they are here in my hands.

Watchmen Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Well, now to see if Ahmed gets a Topps Now card. Goal and an assist (and some fine play in general). dyslexic nam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narduch Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Maybe a split card with Becher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was wondering that myself. 49 minutes ago, narduch said: Maybe a split card with Becher? I could see exactly that happening. The only thing is that Becher scored 2 and is a young American so they may just do a card for him. In breaks, Vancouver is usually one of the last teams to get sold so I think the demand for cards is extremely low. That might be the only factor against what would otherwise be a great opportunity to issue a rookie or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did a card of just Becher last week, so I think it would be a bit surprising to do just him again. narduch and dyslexic nam 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmen Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Ali Ahmed gets his rookie card on Topps Now. Interestingly, Becher also got another individual card. narduch and dyslexic nam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dyslexic nam Posted April 4, 2023 Author Share Posted April 4, 2023 I ended up getting 10x Ahmed so it came to $95 after shipping and currency conversion. So, $9.50 per card plus $1.50 shipping should cover it. Watchmen and narduch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted April 17, 2023 Author Share Posted April 17, 2023 My shipment of cards arrived from the US address I had been using for over a year. Best mail day ever. Will post a few pics of the bangers later but right now I am going through them and loving it. Holy crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted April 17, 2023 Author Share Posted April 17, 2023 (edited) I will preface by saying that I am not looking to sell any of these. ^^^ some pictures confirm you have a problem. ^^^ Loved grabbing the Bowman JMRs. Two /99 Laryea rookies and the 50/50 (love getting bookend parallels). Sole great Larin cards from his Orlando days.

dyslexic nam Posted April 17, 2023 Author Share Posted April 17, 2023 (edited) One of our most underrated players IMO. Damn! Shout out to the women! Some miscellaneous coolness. Just Ligue 1’s current top scorer. Edited April 17, 2023 by dyslexic nam Strait Red, Jedi Ram, narduch and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted April 17, 2023 Author Share Posted April 17, 2023 (edited) Now the bangers… Not licensed but two early stickers from the first run produced for the U20 tournament. Loved adding these to the collection. I know Shaff isn’t a world beater but this is a /5 red parallel from my favourite set of all time David’s first (and currently only) on-card auto. Was super excited to win this on eBay. Three 1-of-1 printing plates from Larin’s days with Orlando. They aren’t as desirable as 1/1 cards but I friggin love ‘em. I threw in the card (/99) that 2 of the 3 were used to make. Edited April 26, 2023 by dyslexic nam masster, Jedi Ram and narduch 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
