Speaker 3 (3m 1s): It's Casper,
Speaker 0 (3m 2s): Casper. He's not here yet. So Brett McCollum, who is normally on our podcast with us, he's not here at the moment. So he will be coming in. He's in a meeting at the moment, doing something
Speaker 3 (3m 11s): He will arrive shortly.
Speaker 0 (3m 12s): Very important sense. So if you've got any questions about grading, please get on, get on the chat on Instagram and let us know. And we will, we'll endeavor to answer them, but what's, what's happened this week in the card world, mate. Anything interesting that you've seen
Speaker 3 (3m 31s): This week? Well, I don't know if do you watch much of YouTube or listen to the news and all that kind of thing regarding sports cards? Yeah, of course I do. Just there, there was the breaks that happened at nationals with the 86 FLIR. And it was, there's a big controversy about the, the, the cards weren't in the right order as what they should come. I did,
Speaker 0 (3m 52s): I saw what's a company that authenticated that
Speaker 3 (3m 55s): BC, BC baseball card exchange
Speaker 0 (3m 58s): Or whatever that's on. Yeah. I saw they brought out a, a release, a press release to explain why they felt it was okay because they authenticated the box.
Speaker 3 (4m 5s): Yeah. I've also watched, I'll give a shout out to Dan the card man. He's an Australian guy. Yep. And he does a lot of like vlogs, I guess you can call him like little podcast on YouTube and he's quite, he knows what he's talking about. And he's, he knows that that box originally had packs put into it, to
Speaker 0 (4m 24s): It, the BC, whatever exchange, whatever it was, Facebook card. We're just gonna call him the authenticator. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (4m 31s): Steve, I know, I know the guys,
Speaker 0 (4m 33s): They said in their press release that there were two packs that had been added to the box. Cuz there were two packs less. Yeah. And they authenticated it. But it really, I mean, I saw the, the controversy on it all, but really it seemed to be a little bit of a people just wanted to have a bit of a whinge to be honest.
Speaker 3 (4m 50s): Yeah. I think that's what majority of it
Speaker 0 (4m 52s): Is because I was saying that you should get three or two,
Speaker 3 (4m 56s): Two or three,
Speaker 0 (4m 56s): Two or three Jordan rookies
Speaker 3 (4m 57s): And there still was two. There was in that box. Yeah. So, but I think it was just that the fact that there was car collector to Ryan yep. In his box was Johnson, Johnson, Johnson, Johnson, Johnson. It wasn't like in the card order that it was supposed to be in. So. Yep.
Speaker 0 (5m 14s): Well these who these things happened. I mean, I, we opened up in bringing it back to Australia. We opened up some, the local car shop opened up some old school AFL boxes from 15 years ago. And the correlation in those boxes were the correlation. Sorry, not correlation. The correlation of those boxes was horrible.
Speaker 3 (5m 33s): Oh really?
Speaker 0 (5m 34s): Just the same card 3, 4, 5 times. And then obviously would not have got anywhere near a base set out of those. So I just think that, you know, sometimes these things happen. It can
Speaker 3 (5m 44s): Happen. It can happen, I guess. So.
Speaker 0 (5m 46s): And any interesting cards you see, come through the door this week, we've had no, we had shout out to JCS toys and mint collectibles. We did have submissions coming from both those submission partners who are and
Speaker 3 (5m 58s): Big boss collectibles.
Speaker 0 (5m 58s): We have big boss actually seeing Marco today.
Speaker 3 (6m 1s): Yeah. We've actually finished his order. So
Speaker 0 (6m 3s): Finished one of his orders. We're gonna drop that off to Marco. So that's so if you are one of his customers through his submissions process, you will definitely be getting your cards back very soon.
Speaker 3 (6m 13s): Apparently. Hey, also people were calling out still city collectibles for Wayne nationals packs.
Speaker 0 (6m 18s): Holy heck.
Speaker 3 (6m 19s): Is that like the little silver or gold
Speaker 0 (6m 21s): Packs? Yes, that is. That's the one
Speaker 3 (6m 23s): Because I know you could get thick cards and stuff in that, which I print. I think you'd be able to tell if you got a thick one, but there you go.
Speaker 0 (6m 30s): Yeah. Those kind of things.
Speaker 3 (6m 33s): Cohen. K, sorry for cutting in. Yeah. That's alright. Just knock your phone over. He says, what car protection should you use when sending them integrating actually the, the, the first thing you should probably do is stick it in a penny sleeve. You can get penny sleeves with the little tab on the top. Yep. I can't remember what they're called. I'm sorry for those guys. But they send us a, a pack of them which were pretty cool. Or you can get, you know, those little tap things.
Speaker 0 (6m 59s): Yeah. Little, what do
Speaker 3 (7m 0s): They call PostIt notes? Post-its there you
Speaker 0 (7m 2s): Go. The tiny little ones that a lot of people stick those on the penny,
Speaker 3 (7m 5s): You stick them on and the piece, and then you put it in a card saver or a top loader.
Speaker 0 (7m 9s): So the most important thing though, is that you have it in at those very minimum at penny leave and a top.
Speaker 3 (7m 15s): Yeah. We've had, we've had people send their cards in without a penny leave. It's just sitting in the top loader. Yep. So, and that doesn't cards get scratched up.
Speaker 0 (7m 21s): Yeah. It's not that they are scratch when they get to it or whatever, but you just you're maximizing the opportunity for something to happen. Oh, it's definitely. So if you put it just into a top loader and nothing else, cross your fingers and hope that it hasn't been scratched because that's, what's gonna happen. And just question that I've had to email to me a couple of times this week from some customers that are sending in for the first time is what? Around the same thing. How do we send them in, but also asking what happens to their top loaders and things when they, when they come in, because one person wanted, he was adamant that he wanted to send it in or one touch, which is fine.
Do whatever you like, but obviously one touches aren't cheap, but we will send back everything.
Speaker 3 (8m 3s): Oh, most definitely. Yeah.
Speaker 0 (8m 3s): So you send,
Speaker 3 (8m 5s): I never send it in a one touch.
Speaker 0 (8m 6s): No way. I wouldn't either just for an FYI. Yeah. Because there is a little bit of movement in one touches, which is not great for the card. Cuz again, giving it an opportunity to be damaged. One touches are absolutely fantastic for those cards that you don't want to get graded and you wanna display it home. So not sure as long as they're not being moved or posted or anything like that, one touches are fantastic. But if you're gonna move them or, you know, take it out and put into a top
Speaker 3 (8m 29s): Line leave and then the top leader. Yeah. Peace leave. And top later. So like I always say protect your cards the best way to do things. Check the run. Good, good life
Speaker 0 (8m 40s): Mint collectibles. Thanks for the message guys. Yeah. Look, I just had Liam walk in about what was it? 10 seconds before we went live.
Speaker 3 (8m 48s): Yeah. It was about
Speaker 0 (8m 49s): That. Yeah. Yeah. And he said, min collectibles are wrong. We, and I said, good ring them back. So, so hopefully he's done that. It sounds like he has. Yes. And I do look forward to having a quick chat with you guys afterwards. I know Chris and I are on the road after this. So we'll give you a call when we're on the road. It's easier to do that. And just a little bit on Chris, he's back from the national and back from his trip to Birmingham, Birmingham, where he, where he mucked around with eSports.
Speaker 3 (9m 13s): Yeah. That sounds
Speaker 0 (9m 15s): Now, but he didn't wanna be on the podcast.
Speaker 3 (9m 18s): No. What is that?
Speaker 0 (9m 20s): So he's moved on. He's moved on. I would love to say that, but no, he loves, he just doesn't love being on the podcast because he doesn't love being on the video. Yeah. So he was happy for me to step in, step in and not bring him in for a farewell podcast. So, but yeah, no. So Chris is back. He had some exciting times over there as well. And at the national brought back a lot of products that's was fantastic. Yeah. Some of those Marvel cards that he brought
Speaker 3 (9m 47s): Back were he brought yeah. That's Stan Lee Marvel card. Like the one card I want from Marvel.
Speaker 0 (9m 52s): Yeah, absolutely brilliant.
Speaker 3 (9m 53s): That's
Speaker 0 (9m 53s): Sick. But then he went over to Birmingham where they were investigating some stuff for media, eight around eSports. And I know that the first thing he did when we came back, now we'll segue into this because we're gonna the hobby hangout in a couple of days. And I organized, we're all going as a PSG group to the Aussie rules on Hey, so there's a few people that are looking forward to that. We've got a couple of supporters with us, but then Chris came and said, boys, we have to, after the footy head to someplace and I forgot the name of it, but we'll report on this next week and we are going to do a, an eSports night.
Speaker 3 (10m 29s): Oh
Speaker 0 (10m 30s): Man. So there's a, I, and I don't know how it all works, but it's something different for me to learn about. Yeah. That's cool. Yeah. They have a place where you can go and you can actually play against other people on their different screens or whatever. Maybe someone who's watching might know, understand that a little bit more. Nathan Jager 34. He's joined. Good afternoon jelly. I just saw your message about check, run, good life video. If you get a chance, we'll do that. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10m 56s): So that that'll be about the national, all the stuff that happened on national. Yeah. Regarding the, the FLIR and the,
Speaker 0 (11m 2s): Maybe the steel city packs and things like that. But
Speaker 3 (11m 5s): So that'll be interesting. So absolutely. I know. That's what gets me through my day grade cards and watch YouTube
Speaker 0 (11m 11s): Or listen to YouTube. Yeah. Or listen, you can't really watch it while you're grading cards.
Speaker 3 (11m 17s): Yeah.
Speaker 0 (11m 17s): No, it's not exactly what happens, but we do listen to a few podcasts and things like that. As we're going through the day in here
Speaker 3 (11m 23s): Helps you stay knowledgeable
Speaker 0 (11m 25s): And keeps you sane from looking at cards all day.
Speaker 3 (11m 27s): Although that is
Speaker 0 (11m 28s): Go blur now. So we're going down to hobby hangout. Yes,
Speaker 3 (11m 34s): Sir.
Speaker 0 (11m 35s): Let's play this game again. Hugs. What's gonna happen.
Speaker 3 (11m 38s): We're gonna go to the hobby hanging out.
Speaker 0 (11m 41s): This is cool. Cause we're playing. It's
Speaker 3 (11m 42s): Actually cool. It's gonna be my first time watching an AFL game live that isn't the gold coast suns. So I've been the gold coast suns where there are not
Speaker 0 (11m 50s): Many people in the world. People, there are not many people in the world that can say that. Cause most people, the last team they would've seen ever was a gold coast. That is the only team you've seen
Speaker 3 (11m 58s): Live. And it's funny. I'm from Melbourne. So
Speaker 0 (12m 1s): I have a team.
Speaker 3 (12m 2s): Yeah. Jalong you're Jalong. I was a Gary ABT senior fan. Oh wow. Since I was a kid. So
Speaker 0 (12m 7s): Who, I mean, if you were in that, if you're in that age group and you're not, you're a little strange if you're a long fan or even a footy fan. I mean I used to go to games just to watch Gary S
Speaker 3 (12m 16s): Play. I can, I can understand why. Yeah.
Speaker 0 (12m 19s): It was pretty special kind of stuff.
Speaker 3 (12m 21s): Dude was amazing.
Speaker 0 (12m 22s): But yeah, we're going to the football, but what are we doing? What are we doing at the hobby hanging out?
Speaker 3 (12m 26s): We're gonna be,
Speaker 0 (12m 27s): We're gonna be busy.
Speaker 3 (12m 28s): Yeah. We're gonna be very busy. Thanks to Brett right here, right? Yeah. Yeah. We've got, I like to

Speaker 0 (12m 38s): Agreed. Everyone gets a free grade. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12m 40s): And yeah. I just think it's gonna be awesome. Just, just catching up with collectors again, I guess will be.
Speaker 0 (12m 46s): So come to our table. If you are down there for two reasons, one, you can drop off a card, just pay postage and you will get it graded. Yep. So that's one reason, but also just come down and say hello.
Speaker 3 (12m 55s): And also if you have Jackson Hayes cards, you don't want just come give to me.
Speaker 0 (12m 59s): So Benny Allen's on the
Speaker 3 (13m 1s): Line's drawing. You should be working mate. He
Speaker 0 (13m 3s): Should. He is working very hard. He's at the local car shop. So I'm actually gonna do a bit of a Ben doesn't know about this year, but we're gonna do a little bit of a Ben video today. He so hopefully Ben's, hopefully Ben's wearing his best Celtics t-shirt
Speaker 3 (13m 16s): As he probably would
Speaker 0 (13m 16s): Be. So yeah. Come and say hello and any questions you've got about grading. We are gonna have a, a, not the kind exactly we use here, but we're gonna have a microscope there and a PC that we can look at people's cards under the scope and you can see,
Speaker 3 (13m 32s): See what
Speaker 0 (13m 33s): Kind of, what we see. Yeah. I mean, our scopes are a little bit stronger, but
Speaker 3 (13m 38s): Yeah, this is just the one we can carry around. Yeah.
Speaker 0 (13m 40s): This is it. Exactly. So we'll do that and we'll, we'll have a look at those. We're gonna have a whole heap of what are those things called? Slabs.
Speaker 3 (13m 49s): Yeah. Display for people to look at.
Speaker 0 (13m 51s): Yep. So we've just finished grading a heap of Tyson Beck's AFL cards.
Speaker 3 (13m 57s): Oh yeah. They're
Speaker 0 (13m 57s): Amazing. Cause we're gonna have Tyson there. So we thought it'd be good to have those. And being down in Melbourne, the AFL pretty
Speaker 3 (14m 2s): Popular AFL central,
Speaker 0 (14m 4s): Some old school MBA ones. Won't give it away. But that there's a three card set, which is really cool that we've
Speaker 3 (14m 9s): Graded three cards set. Yeah. From even though I dunno what that is
Speaker 0 (14m 12s): From back in the early nineties.
Speaker 3 (14m 15s): Okay.
Speaker 0 (14m 16s): So awesome. Yeah. So we've got a set of those. That's been graded. We've got some PC labels to show people, some basketball, some football, rugby, rugby league, rugby, not rugby, not rugby grid on whatever that's called the NFL cards. So we've got a fair few of those to have a look at as well. Brett, what's Brett doing
Speaker 3 (14m 36s): Brett, what is he doing?
Speaker 0 (14m 38s): No. On the hobby hanging during the hobby.
Speaker 3 (14m 40s): Yeah. He'll be talking main
Speaker 0 (14m 42s): Stage. So we up there with Tyson giving
Speaker 3 (14m 44s): Away more grades,
Speaker 0 (14m 45s): He probably will. He did that during the week. He sent me a message. I think it was Sunday night and he said, sorry mate, I've done it again. And that's all he wrote. And courtside collectibles, which is one of the, which is a breakers group. Yep. They were raising some money for someone who's going through a hard spot at the moment. And Brett decided to give people who donated $40 or more a, a free grade as well. So
Speaker 3 (15m 10s): Always, always good for the cause I guess.
Speaker 0 (15m 12s): Oh look, it was, it was for a very admirable cause. So that was, that was fantastic. So yeah, we had a few come through that way as well. I think this just shows you the card community. I believe it was over $5,000 worth raised in 48
Speaker 3 (15m 29s): Hours. That's amazing
Speaker 0 (15m 30s): For someone who really does need, it's going through some, some issues and needs, some just needs a little bit of support.
Speaker 3 (15m 36s): So that's what, that's what I love about this hobby. Like especially, I don't know what it's like in other countries and that, but here in Australia, everyone's just there to like help out and give. So yeah,
Speaker 0 (15m 46s): It's, it's a great way. Isn't it? So a great, a great thing about any group that you're involved in, whether it be a football club or cricket club or a hobby.
Speaker 3 (15m 53s): Exactly.
Speaker 0 (15m 54s): Have we got some? Who else? We got

And the reason it's a popup shop is that we are looking for somewhere else. That's maybe a little bit bigger, but this is just an ideal way to, to get
Speaker 3 (17m 22s): The ball rolling. I guess,
Speaker 0 (17m 23s): Get the ball rolling on the gold coast again. Cuz we had two shops now we've only got one place at the market, so yeah. Yeah. That's that's what that is gonna be good. Jail. 15

Speaker 3 (18m 34s): Oh did
Speaker 0 (18m 34s): I? Yes. So I know
Speaker 3 (18m 37s): Because I do so many cards. I don't actually know
Speaker 0 (18m 40s): What I'm doing. We actually bought them off the guy who you graded them for because it was cool. It was just a cool little set to have and to put it together. So,
Speaker 3 (18m 48s): Ah, yeah. I know now, you know? Yeah. I'm not gonna blur it out, but

Speaker 3 (20m 25s): You or even better if you're in Melbourne,
Speaker 0 (20m 26s): If you Melbourne just give it to us. But SMO I'll do that because I've actually got a bit of an idea. Once again, like Brett said last week we'll we may or may not use the, the card in a bit of a photo shoot, but I would love to get a few S Schmo cards and we will definitely grade
Speaker 3 (20m 43s): Zach. Zack wants to PCs Schmo.
Speaker 0 (20m 45s): Yeah. Zach would Z Zach, but you're behind you're in the line mate. You're in the line. It's good stuff because there's two people. And the reason I find that one even a little bit funny is that I have a few of the S scoo cards personally, myself, and I know you do. I do. That's awesome. And I know another bloke who is in the empty chair, who you is just not here right at this minute.
Speaker 3 (21m 3s): He's got that patch card with the Australian flag on it. Have you seen that one? Oh
Speaker 0 (21m 7s): Yeah. That wasn't from
Speaker 3 (21m 8s): Something different it's from like a world leader set or something.
Speaker 0 (21m 11s): Yeah. That, yeah. I don't know what that I do know what the set was, but I can't remember. But the Allen and Gintas Gomo card, it's gotta be the full size car too, because only because unfortunately the mini we don't, we're getting we're close it's
Speaker 3 (21m 23s): Yeah. We're just trying to get the, the insert for it. But
Speaker 0 (21m 26s): So for people out there, we've had a fair few questions. I know jazz Payton, who's a big cigarette card collector from Victoria. He's been asking about it. And the big issue for us with the, with the cigarette cards is that it's not like you can just make a new slab for it. No, because you need to have the slab at a minimum. The size of the slab that we have is what you've gotta have because for
Speaker 3 (21m 48s): The label source the label. Yeah.
Speaker 0 (21m 50s): So
Speaker 3 (21m 51s): That would actually be kind of cool, like small label.
Speaker 0 (21m 53s): Yeah, exactly. But we've been working really hard. Omar who has been working on that to try and come up with a way that we can have an insert inside the slab. That is something that we, because cigarette cards change in size in not all the same size. So,
Speaker 3 (22m 7s): Or even some basketball cards are slightly different sizes.
Speaker 0 (22m 10s): Yeah. But with the cigarette cards, it's, it's a bigger issue because you're in a, that slab. So we are, we're very close. We think we've found the answer sounds good. And it is actually quite a cost effective answer. So that that's something that will be good. And they did up a slab and asked me to break it or to get the car, to move inside it. And it took me three days. I did get it to move, but man, did I give that? I gave that card.
Speaker 3 (22m 31s): You're not gonna do that card.
Speaker 0 (22m 32s): Bang, bang. Yeah. And that that's what gave us good. Good peace of mind that yeah. Awesome. Normal travel, normal display. This card is not gonna move. I was literally smacking it on the side of this table and I did that for three days before it started to move. But that was probably more the slab just cracking apart than the, than the insert, not working. So that's cool. We like shoutouts. We'll shout out to Omar for getting that idea.
Speaker 3 (22m 54s): 1 0 1 MC
Speaker 0 (22m 55s): Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22m 56s): Speaking of hobby hangout. What's what's this?

Speaker 3 (23m 50s): The QR code. Yeah.
Speaker 0 (23m 51s): With the QR code this time you must submit a card to be graded.
Speaker 3 (23m 55s): And that includes your free card,
Speaker 0 (23m 56s): Correct. A hundred percent. That's right. So, which is crazy. Yeah. So you don't have to it's we're not asking for a, for you to submit 10 cards or 20 cards or 30 cards, but you know, just one card is a free one. Just obviously you just pay that postage back and you are in the drawer and yeah. Somebody's gonna win that on, on Sunday afternoon. And we're hoping that Tyson Beck might draw it for us. Not

Speaker 3 (34m 58s): 93, 94, 90 I'm I'm
Speaker 0 (35m 1s): After 19. There's a, there's a clue. There is a massive clue. It is after 1992. Okay. Because it can't be in a 1992 product when it's
Speaker 3 (35m 9s): A big, no, I think it was
Speaker 4 (35m 10s): Before. No, it was before, when they had their first

Speaker 0 (37m 44s): Mark. Mening Meninga mark mening Mel Meninga really? Yeah. So I was gifted some tickets to the Titans from yourself. Yeah. And in the box? No.
Speaker 4 (37m 54s): Oh, you got the shit ones.
Speaker 0 (37m 55s): I got the shit ones, but that's okay. Because the shit ones were actually good.
Speaker 4 (37m 57s): They're gold tickets. So they're bad.
Speaker 0 (37m 59s): Yeah. The seats in front of me was the big, big male.
Speaker 4 (38m 3s): Really? Did you say hello?
Speaker 0 (38m 5s): I was a bit like Chris. I went, come on, man. It's his personal. Yeah. And then halftime. Everyone just came flat. No, I'm in.
Speaker 3 (38m 14s): I remember I was like, that was Sam McKinnon. Yeah. I was like fanboy, same thing and stash. Men's like, go, do you wanna see him? Like, nah, I can't. Should we ring him? But then I saw him. I saw him at, I saw him at the Josh pit event and I
Speaker 4 (38m 24s): Just we'll ring Samm next week. Yeah. We'll get him on the podcast and see if you can talk.
Speaker 3 (38m 28s): No, I probably won't be able to
Speaker 0 (38m 30s): What's next one,
Speaker 4 (38m 32s): Tom. Brady Patriots. It's a scorecard, but it's like a bobble head. And I, I bought this as a single I really, I really liked it. It was a really nice card. That's awesome. And then we move into the leaders.
Speaker 0 (38m 44s): How ironic his first one though, when you showed me,
Speaker 4 (38m 47s): Indeed, indeed. So this is tops and tops bought out a series, which was celebrity actresses. And there we have 19 of 99 of Jenny McCarthy.
Speaker 0 (38m 59s): Oh no, we don't look. Well, we do. We don't mind. Jenny
Speaker 4 (39m 1s): McCarthy. Oh, might have got another one of them. She's number five of 99 of Jenny McCarthy. Cause what happened is I went to the guy, mate, I'll just take 'em all. And we did a deal. Typical Brett
Speaker 0 (39m 10s): Fashion
Speaker 4 (39m 11s): Then there's Carmen Electra. Very nice. Carmen, Carmen. Yep.
Speaker 0 (39m 15s): That should go with the Dennis Robin
Speaker 4 (39m 16s): Piece. Then there's the, one of my favorite movies ever made is the American pie series.
Speaker 0 (39m 20s): Shannon
Speaker 4 (39m 20s): In the top 37. There's a one to 37. There's Shannon Elizabeth.
Speaker 0 (39m 25s): Very nice. I, I stalked her at the Rio hotel at the 2014 world series poker
Speaker 4 (39m 32s): With a pie.
Speaker 0 (39m 33s): She plays poker. No, she's a poker player. There. You plays
Speaker 4 (39m 36s): Professional. And we've got some commentary as we go here. Mark Cuban in the shark. Tank's great guy. Definitely not Google. Cheers boys. She was good in the nineties. Baywatch. I see a theme here. No, this is the one where this is the big fella on the end. Got that excited. And so it's actually the only reason I bought the sit, see the truth and that's Christy Brinkley. Yeah. 75 of 99. I think they retail around 200 bucks.
Speaker 0 (40m 2s): Those ones do. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (40m 3s): Wow. Absolute cracker of a
Speaker 0 (40m 5s): Card. But what made us or what made me laugh about that? Was that on Sunday at the local car shop
Speaker 4 (40m 11s): Someone cracked one didn't they? No,
Speaker 0 (40m 12s): I was just going through a whole pile of old cards and there was a 19 something, something card of Christie Brinkley and it was basketball draft picks. So it actually had rookie card on it. That's what this one has with basketball draft picks up the side. So all I kept thinking was with the third pick in the 2003 NBA draft, Rob OV picks Christie Brinkley. You go. Yeah. So
Speaker 4 (40m 34s): Who him? A crack in the side of the head. Yeah, exactly. I, another couple I had to buy these because they were, you know, when you look at a card and they're especially shiny stuff and that is Justin Bieber's rookie.
Speaker 0 (40m 44s): Ah, that's sick. You haven't showed us
Speaker 4 (40m 46s): That one and another Justin Bieber playing a piano. So that's JBS rookie. Okay. We'll get to them. One, one. Yeah. Big Andre. The giant. So I saw him in, I think it was cards and cardboard and coffee, I think in Utah
Speaker 0 (41m 2s): You actually saw him because difficult he did. Yeah. That
Speaker 4 (41m 6s): Would be difficult. Yeah. But he did drink 54 beers in one sitting at one stage. But the fact that he's Andre, the giant he's pretty cool is a pretty cool card. Going back to the, the BES. This is actually Drake's rookie card out of the Justin BBER set. It's a first print as well. So those surrounding the old Justin Bieber piece, I think will be very jealous of that one. That would be you and stash man.
Speaker 0 (41m 32s): Yeah.
Speaker 4 (41m 34s): And then this was pretty sick. Actually. We, we were in Utah city. Oh sorry. In salt lake city on our way back to salt lake. And we stopped at this little card shop on the side of the road and a guys walked out to us and he said, oh, you are the Aussie boys walking around, buying all the cards and we go, Hey, who's who's this and why someone
Speaker 0 (41m 48s): Wants to say some booty cards.
Speaker 4 (41m 49s): Yeah. Yeah. But the thing here is then I got my first ever 10 pristine Williamson stainless stars. And the fact that like we've dealt with a lot of these stainless things and normally they're pretty shit surface. The fact that it's got a nine and a half of the surface and 10 for everything else that's it is, is pretty impressive. So my challenge to you sitting there with the naked eye, is it a 10? Well, he's
Speaker 0 (42m 13s): Doing we'll keep going. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (42m 14s): Whilst he's doing that
Speaker 0 (42m 15s): Here, come my
Speaker 4 (42m 16s): Favorites. We might go this one first. Okay. This is got the most feedback of anything I've ever put online. I know.
Speaker 0 (42m 21s): Yeah. Got
Speaker 4 (42m 21s): Three reasons. I've got three responses. Is there the auto Chevy chase Irwin M Fletcher card. Absolute cracker of a card. It's actually got the prize. I paid on the back. Which, but hide that one from the wife.
Speaker 0 (42m 32s): Yeah. Make sure it's
Speaker 4 (42m 33s): Somebody doesn't but absolute cracker of a card. And the problem is there was another one there as a pick between the two should have took them. Both could have sold that for a fortune, but absolute cracker of a card, the Chevy chase and then the man himself, Mr. Ron burgundy.
Speaker 0 (42m 49s): I dunno what to do in my head.
Speaker 5 (42m 51s): Regraded
Speaker 4 (42m 53s): Must be the SGC slab. It must
Speaker 0 (42m 56s): Be
Speaker 4 (42m 56s): Just, it was a bit slippery jumped.
Speaker 0 (42m 58s): Oh, in fact you had Ron Bergen in your hands just made you nervous.
Speaker 4 (43m 0s): Yeah, exactly. That's it's Ron, but yeah. There's there's Mr. Ron burgundy himself. That's cool. That is cool. An absolute cracker of a car that is
Speaker 0 (43m 7s): Super.
Speaker 4 (43m 8s): So for those who asked what we got in the us there, probably some of the biggest stuff we got I'm frozen on here. Is there any commentary there?
Speaker 0 (43m 15s): Brett? You're mad. Brett. You're crazy. Brett. No gel gel 15 or whatever. Jelly jelly. I'm really a bit confused. Cause I, I get confused with these username things, but he, he thinks that we've got a bit of a theme of Baywatch girls going there, which was really not a bad theme to
Speaker 4 (43m 34s): Have great thing,
Speaker 0 (43m 36s): But I'll tell you what I'd love to. I'd love jelly. Are you hope? I wonder if he's in Melbourne because I'd love to meet you. Yeah. I know. Use your words, Rob, which is not good. When you're on a podcast, you should be able to use your words.
Speaker 4 (43m 48s): Always, always,
Speaker 0 (43m 50s): But I'd love to know if jelly was in Victoria. Cause I'd love to have a chat to him cuz he, he seems to be perhaps absolutely spot on and very knowledgeable about his
Speaker 4 (43m 57s): Cards indeed. And that's something that I think we need to, to, to get more of more often if we can make sure. Are you stuck there too?
Speaker 0 (44m 7s): Oh, the funny thing. What so was I I thought I wasn't, but now I can see this. This
Speaker 4 (44m 11s): Are we all stuck? All good. Now we're back. Did we miss much? Oh, well if you missed it, it'll be on the other camera. It'll come out on socials in the next few days. Yeah. You might have missed Ron burgundy Chevy chase and Justin Bieber. The dream team, obviously with Drake, Andre, the giant that's is what Rob has announced as his top four, top five for the year. That's his first starting five this year in the NBA. I have no something that he would love.
Speaker 0 (44m 37s): Get around. Try dunking on Andre. I dare
Speaker 4 (44m 41s): You. Now you could.
Speaker 0 (44m 43s): Yeah, you could. Okay.
Speaker 4 (44m 45s): He's laying flat. Yeah know. Yeah. I probably shouldn't make, probably shouldn't make dead Andre jokes. No. Okay. So there's one more thing I did this week boys. And as everyone knows, I have a problem and I announce this this week on, on the interweb and on Facebook mainly. So I do have an issue. And the issue that I have is I collect Robbie, Robbie, me and Robbie, Rob H flawless cards. And I had a whole polar obvious day from America. Hence ship my cards, hence ship my card. Yeah. Hence why the, the shout out went yesterday and I missed three this past two weeks.
And there's now none online. So bit, bit scared that I may miss my actual end game. And what I wanted to just was quickly show people what, what I'm talking about and go for it. The fact here, I only bought one pole down. Cause
Speaker 0 (45m 30s): I was gonna say it doesn't seem like it's all your
Speaker 4 (45m 32s): Ho so this is just one.
Speaker 0 (45m 34s): It's like one 10th of
Speaker 4 (45m 35s): One. No, this is actually just one like stream of them. These are the, I think they're 20, 21 momentous. And that's, that's what a Robert ho flawless card looks like in this particular series. The only one I'm missing is the one on one, but this is where it gets a bit awkward. Awkward. I'm gonna call it awkward is the fact that's a three of three and then we have the to five and I have number five and number four, which I'm trying to get all five obviously. Yes. And then this one here is the to 10 and I have number two, number three and number four that's in order.
Yeah. And then we go to
Speaker 0 (46m 14s): Oops,
Speaker 4 (46m 15s): Go to the red ones and that's to 15 and I have number 13, number 11, number 15 and number seven. So there's a little bit of the population of that card. And then from there you go to the 20 fives and I've got 12, three and five.
Speaker 0 (46m 31s): Hello. My name is Brett
Speaker 4 (46m 32s): Have problem. I definitely have a problem. But the problem is what I need. All of these people out there is to help me get, get to the, because what I need, the only way to solve my problem is to get them all yeah. Is to get 'em all. So I want gotta
Speaker 0 (46m 45s): Catch 'em all. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (46m 47s): I want the rest of the 25 and I want the rest of the, the 15, the 10 doing right with the fives. I have two of the five and obviously the three, I have one of them. So, and I either one on one. So anyone out in the world I will pay good money.
Speaker 0 (47m 3s): The irony is I know. I used to think, oh well, I'm not sure between the two of you. I know another Robert Hoy collector who is equally as
Speaker 4 (47m 10s): Managing, what do you have?
Speaker 0 (47m 11s): David Jane, most local David Jane
Speaker 4 (47m 13s): Let's make the call. I'll I'm more than happy to change the rest of my Robert ho collection, which is about 400 ho autos for
Speaker 0 (47m 23s): The flawless,
Speaker 4 (47m 23s): The flawless.
Speaker 0 (47m 24s): He, he only lives down the road too. Yeah,
Speaker 4 (47m 26s): We could do it live.
Speaker 0 (47m 28s): We could
Speaker 4 (47m 29s): Or
Speaker 0 (47m 29s): Might not. We might not alright nearly at time they
Speaker 4 (47m 33s): Bring, but Melbourne, Melbourne, Melbourne, Melbourne, let's talk. Bring your Robert Harry cards and I'll pay good money or we'll pay you in grading. That's a good idea.
Speaker 0 (47m 40s): No, that is a horrible idea.
Speaker 4 (47m 42s): Well, I'll pay good money. How's that sound? Yes.
Speaker 0 (47m 44s): Which you might as well pay in grading.
Speaker 4 (47m 45s): So hobby hangout boys. Yep.
Speaker 0 (47m 47s): We've we've had a bit of a chat about hobby hangout. So
Speaker 4 (47m 50s): Chatted about the fact it's our birthday and we away gifts.
Speaker 0 (47m 53s): We're giving. We actually didn't mention the birthday. We just mentioned the gifts.
Speaker 4 (47m 56s): So it is our birthday. It's our first birthday coming up. And what we've decided is we're gonna do lots of gifts to others. Yep. But I will also say that anyone that comes up to us in hobby hangout says happy birthday. We'll give him a free gift.
Speaker 0 (48m 12s): Oh,
Speaker 4 (48m 13s): Can't tell you what the gift is yet because
Speaker 0 (48m 15s): You haven't worked it out yet. No,
Speaker 4 (48m 16s): I worked it out. You've it out?
Speaker 0 (48m 17s): We'll wrap. Wrap him up in like, okay. Paper as well.
Speaker 4 (48m 21s): They might be, they might be made of paper. Oh,
Speaker 0 (48m 23s): There you go. All wrong on
Speaker 4 (48m 24s): One. There we go. That's the one I was looking for. So anyone in hobby hangout comes up and says, happy birthday to me or Rob, there you go. Oh dear. Not the others just me or Rob. Yep. Yeah. You'll get a, you'll get a special gift. Only one per person that does it, but you'll get a special gift.
Speaker 0 (48m 39s): So this has been Brett's crazy minute moment of
Speaker 4 (48m 42s): Tonight. Yeah. And the gift you wanna hear what it is not gonna tell you. I
Speaker 0 (48m 46s): Was gonna say you just told cause it's a gift. Yeah. Well, no, a gift you can, I guess.
Speaker 4 (48m 51s): No, it's a surprise gift.
Speaker 0 (48m 51s): A surprise gift.
Speaker 4 (48m 52s): Absolute
Speaker 0 (48m 53s): Surprise gift. So what we did talk about before was that we're gonna be the hobby hangout that we got the platinum ticket. We told people how to get
Speaker 4 (48m 59s): Involved. They're gonna have to get a card submitted ticket. That's the word I'm

Speaker 4 (49m 8s): And today just didn't realize Tyson. He, new collector's club card came out, saw today, which was pretty sick. So shout out to Tyson obviously. Well done mate, bringing our new stuff into the hobby. I think that that's awesome. So

We're helping out the Trinity Lutheran college foundation. So we're doing it for charity, but yeah, we're actually gonna have a couple races named after us. So I was, I was very, very excited about that earlier today.

I have struggled, severely define that Tyson back rookie card, but I'm gonna have a chat to Tyson. And when I do find it, we will get that sorted out as well. But we are going to get a card signed by Tyson. One of the ones he has designed for the AFL. Yep. So we'll get one of those signed and we'll get that up.
