I'm in Love




Yes, you read it right. I have fallen in love again.  I have flirted with this girl before but someone else better always came along.  Well now, after this weekend, I'm ready to commit again.

To Vintage!

Yes! I am going full swing into vintage.  I spent hours on Saturday pouring through monster boxes of the stuff. Just finding more and more that I wanted to take home.  Let me share the goods

 Griffey Sr. Rookie for 2 Bucks in a Screw Down Case. Yes Please!!
 Graded 53 Topps at a PSA 6  for less than a blaster!  O yeah!
 SpaceMan, Rollie, Piniella, Blyleven, Hoyt, and two super vintage Braves-Hooray
 Got a Mincher!! Some sub 60's. Fergie Traded!
 I keep getting Jack Morris Rookies!  Jim Perry. 50's Bowman!!
 Santo and Marichal Traded!! Got a Reuss and a vintage Rose yes!
 Some super raw, super awesome football vintage. Two great names-King Hill and Tom Beers!!
And Coach Schottenheimer!  And a magically vintage caped crusader!
Gosh more vintage greatness!!!

Do you see why I have fallen in love????


I did pick up a few tradeables-I will get them posted on here later this week.  Until then swoon.

American League Teams available for Sale starting.....now

I  have decided to make the move to a new house in May.  I'm in awe of having to move again but it's still two months away.  I have been experimenting with giving the cards away in team lots but the expense is just too much.  No worries though, if you claimed a team lot, I will get it out to you.

However, I would still like to move the eight monster boxes of baseball that I have to team collectors.  It will make it so much easier for me to get organized at the new house. So....I'm gonna offer the teams up for a nominal fee.  I probably have enough to do multiple flat rate small boxes for each team but I will simply start at one per team and see where I'm at with what's left over.  Cards included may be from the 1970's all the way up to 2012 Topps.  At least 200 cards per lot.  Please take these off my hands.  Asking for $11 Paypal Gift per team box(please remember the shipping on these with DC will be right at 6 bucks). Offering National League Teams first.

If you wanna pick up some fun bulk to go through of your team then this might be your perfect opportunity.  If not please pass the word on to anyone that might be interested.

JBF Circle of Excellence

I just passed my one year anniversary of Jaybarkerfan's Junk here on blogger. It's been a fun year. Met lots of new collectors and enjoy reading all of your blogs!  I have decided to celebrate by forming a club here at JBF Junk.  I am the president of this blog and I have decided to institute a Presidential Circle of Excellence!!

I considered starting a HOF but that is for retirees.  I want to showcase my favorite blogs and my favorite traders.  The 2012 class will be five strong.  The charter group will be announced a week today.  Best of luck to all my blogging friends in achieving this excellent and magnificent honor!(Honor may not be magnificent or excellent)
