However... all of these free cards I keep seeing (including all of your sweet oddballs) are going to be my final piece of inspiration. Let's see how far I get.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-30762070878040656042014-05-04T20:41:48.943-04:002014-05-04T20:41:48.943-04:00I've clearly been a slacker with this stuff......I've clearly been a slacker with this stuff... I tried to get some COMC credit, and I think I got about $3 which I haven't spent yet. ...On the other hand, I sold some of the COMC cards that I've had out there for two years, so someone else getting "found money" can be a good thing as well.<br /><br />I recently was going through my cards from those Purina/Cereal cards.. I had a few cards from one set, a few cards from another set, and I decided that since the checklist and photos are identical, the logos and stuff didn't matter to me... I believe it was Mr. Spock who said "A difference which makes no difference is no difference", so I'm considering them both the be the same set and I'm attempting to complete the 1984 Topps Ralston-Cereal-Purina-Series set.

I don't think there is any difference in scarcity but it makes me feel better that not all collectors know everything. <br /><br />I weep for your MooTown Snackers card. Those things are just the best. I even have a Barry Bonds, which tells you how much I love these. <br /><br />And yes, Just Commons is a wonderful site for filling in the gaps at low low prices. When I get bored, I can drop about $30 on like 200 cards and the package is the highlight of my week.<br /><br />I have about $40 myself from COMC that will also fill in a boring insomniac night. I might even grab that same Cey card.jacobmrleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13991748868368917576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-34356119227911191012014-05-03T22:03:05.635-04:002014-05-03T22:03:05.635-04:00Mark, take a look at JustCommons.com for a bit bet...Mark, take a look at <a href="http://www.justcommons.com" rel="nofollow">JustCommons.com</a> for a bit better pricing.

Well said.<br /><br />I ended up with like $34 in credit (still going) and spent it on a few very nice Heads Up Quad patches that should be here soon, plus some PC guy cards. Man I love COMC.
