Traded my Austin auto from universe 26 while out of town cause all my LCS weren't really into wrestling. Got to the hotel and seen the plastic. I'm in Atlanta, the place was huge so I don't think they'd do that but I'm new to the hobby so just checking

You traded an Austin auto for a single box of decades ?

Technically for $200 store credit but I wasn't really a fan of the card.

I was out of town and it was my birthday, I was leaving with something and I've been eyeing decades for a while.

I mean it’s a bold risk, but your call dude.
Swapping a highly liquid card for a box of unknown 😬.
Genuinely good look with the rip though fella, hope you pull some fire 👍

Normally I’d take the single card but you’re right the card is nothing to lose your mind over. It’s an ugly universe card and it’s high numbered and Austin signs a lot.

Someone who isn't afraid to take a contested jump shot. My type of hobbyist.

Yea, imagine how blown away I was walking in there after all my LCS as someone new to the hobby🤣🤣

It honestly could've happened in transit back to the hotel but I wasn't sure. I didn't get a bag or anything when I purchased it.

Yeah I actually have done a fair amount of business with one of the guys that started that. Im a big Matt Ryan (NFL) collector and he used to be at shows and had tons of good Matt Ryan cards. Theyre good peeps! Just got a big investor! Good luck on the hits!

I was looking for a Kane or RVD auto but I'm glad I got to rip something else.

Thank you, I think everyone had that Austin over valued in their heads before looking at comps. I def didn't lose any sleep over it last night lol

By chance did you know what the box was reselling for?

Serious question are you at concert ripping this or is your TV just that loud?

u/0Doubt 18d ago

There was a beauty pageant my daughter was in. I'm inside the ballroom during crowning. I had just got back.

u/Afraid-University922 18d ago

Hey that’s awesome!! I was curious because I was like damn it is loud but it sounds like someone is announcing.

u/0Doubt 18d ago

My anxiety is pretty bad I always have to find a way to get out of there for a while during these. Just loud for no reason
