I've made process thinning out all non-Pirates, but it will be an uphill battle. Part of me just wants to take a weeks vacation and work on that. The other part of me sees a bunch of cards on eBay and adds to the problem.

I was in gridlock organizationally with my Brewers cards until I focused on just base sets first and set the parallels aside.

My Mets collection is basically scattered, stored and stowed in 5,000 different places right now. It gives me hearrburn just thinking about it. When/if I can corral them all into a few binders like that, the air will smell a lot sweeter to me.<br /><br />By the way, I'm joining your "blogsphere" movement. I never like the extra 'O' but just went with the flow.Mark Kazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06742272751796497047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047326403910235658.post-70659908440169862042015-07-09T04:27:22.105-05:002015-07-09T04:27:22.105-05:00You have must have some patience with all of the r...You have must have some patience with all of the re-organizing you have done. At times, like during moves, I have gone through to figure out accurate values for insurance reasons but I wouldn't say I have anything of major value in my collection besides a couple of vintage and auto cards that are on display in my bedroom. <br /><br />Corkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02344136023470368021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047326403910235658.post-67797931260749385742015-07-09T03:16:39.962-05:002015-07-09T03:16:39.962-05:00Nobody in their right mind would even think of ste...Nobody in their right mind would even think of stealing my cards. And my best ones are in plain sight, on book shelves a little bit eveywhere (since I have a lot of books, I need a lot of book shelves).<br />Oh, and let me put a formal request to get some of those extra Griffeys you can spare !

If the thieves are lucky, they might have 15 minutes before SJPD arrives.<br /><br />B. My alarm company will also call my home owner's security company which should arrive a lot sooner than SJPD. So let's assume the worst case scenario is the thieves have 5 minutes.<br /><br />C. Okay the clock is ticking. Assuming they only care about cards... here's where the comedy begins:<br /><br />#1 I have cards everywhere: in my garage, in my attic, in my office, in my classroom, in my buddy's garage, and at my parent's house.<br /><br />#2 But let's just focus at my house, since that's what the focus of my point is. The thieves would need to start digging through boxes located in three different locations in my place. They have 5 minutes!<br /><br />If I weren't such a neat freak, I would love to have a few of my buddies participate in an experiment and do a timed test to see how many high end cards they could find at my place in 5 minutes. In fact... they should make this experiment into a game show. I guess that's one of the perks of being a cardboard hoarder.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.com
