The Great Card Cleanse Of 2025 Part 2: The Goods

I know a lot of you have been waiting to see what I turned all of those base cards into.

Well, today is your lucky day and I have my lucky cup of coffee next to me waiting to be sipped.

*takes a sip*

I know most of you will be shocked by my return as it's not really anything spectacular, but to me it was. Yes, it was seventy-five thousand plus cards and even at a penny a card I should have gotten something nice, but who do you know would take on that amount of base without blinking an eye or being fussy about what they took? Not too many I know of, actually I don't know of anyone else. Not to mention I freed up so much space and boxes that I can use for future projects that actually matter to me.

So, I still think in the end I am the winner here.

Let's take a look at my haul and yes, I miscounted, there were fourteen I got in return, not twelve.

WanDale Robinson Playoff Contenders Optic rookie. He started off the year hot, but, this Giants offense is all over the place.

Malik Nabers still is the best player on the Giants, we just have to get the ball into his hands.

This might help. The Giants are 0-3, coach is desperate, so let's turn to his rookie QB who he hopes can not only be the savior of this team, but the savior of his job.
I now have two of these, just because I guess. I still need a Caitlin Clark.

Cam has moved up to one of my favorite players on the team. He gives me Jeremy Shockey vibes.

Tyler Nubin has made some plays this year, hopefully this defense, especially the secondary, can turn things around tomorrow.

Everyone who has followed me on social media or on this blog know that I have chased the Donruss Rookie Sweater sets every year. 2024 is the one I am struggling with the most, I have a mile to go still but fortunately this was a new one.

I never turn down a LT card, especially a team color matching parallel.

Not sure where my father was hiding some Eli, but I will take them. I still need to check if I have them.


Darius Slayton has fallen off the Giants good graces so far this year, he hasn't been getting the ball in his hands. He is an underrated speedster if someone can get him the ball. Come on Dart!

 
And for some reason, I felt I needed this in the trade. Not sure if Howard will ever play, but I figured it gave me something to sit on for awhile. Maybe use it later on for something I want more. If any Steelers fans are interested, I will trade this for a Dart version!

There you have it. 

I know, probably about $20 in return value, but, these cards make me happy and that's all that matters. Don't judge me. Only judge me for drinking decaf coffee, but it's better than none!

I still have more base cards to dispose of and hopefully can pull off a second trade for those and clean up more space soon. I have also begun pulling out some of the hits, autograph and jersey cards, I will be downsizing as well and I have made a huge dent in that as well.

My collecting ways are changing and changing for the better. Make sure to stay tuned for future updates on this project. Much, much more to come.

Have a Super Saturday.
