Has this newest card release gone too far? This is downright creepy & gross.

A good friend of mine (who is a full-time dealer in the area) sent over the selling brochure of a new card release. It is the most polarizing card issue ever because dealers either refuse to carry them, or buy as much as they can.  The manufacturer is now completely sold out!  It has an *AMAZING* checklist, too. I'm not supposed to show the sell sheet as it is supposed to be dealer only, but since they are already sold out, I figured it wouldn't be a big deal. I was told that the autograph mention below is a jab

Aliens, Junk Wax Variations and White Whales

In January, we had a pre-teen Bible study at our house, and I was talking to the kids about how vast the universe is.  As I'm sure you can imagine since it was a Bible study, we then went from how incredible the universe is to how awesome God is who created it all. If you disagree and are rolling your eyes, don't worry - I'll get to the baseball card bit here soon, and it will all tie in together shortly, I promise :)   Here are some interesting points:  - The earth is huge, right?  The sun is

Story Time!

If you have been reading my posts for a while, you know that I'm not your typical blogger. I don't really have a rhyme or reason to much of what I write. There is very little cohesiveness in my articles, and my segues are a bit of a stretch, to say the least. I don't check for spelling, because writing is fun, and proof reading is not. I'm considered the family dictionary (and calculator), yet I almost left segue above as segway. They are meant to read more like a journal, I suppose. Not that I'm that particularly interesting of

Seller Demands Double Payment for Wrinkled Cards

From time to time, I seem to get in some streaks of awesome luck... (a TTM custom autograph from a member of Vampire Diaries - she put To Tanner on the back ... cool!) or horrible luck... (yes, that IS paper in my breakfast sammich that I took a bite out of this morning!) I know, in the grand scheme of things, not horrible - actually, it is funny, hence the picture!  I generally do not classify paper in my breakfast to be horrible luck, nor would I consider it bad luck when a wasp decides to land on my

Fantastic New Additions to the PC, Some Customs and More!

Another busy week here at the offices of Mouschi, inc.  Firstly, I know I don't show off much non Canseco stuff, but take a look at this beauty: A Bobby Doerr Topps Tribute patch! It is always nice getting in game used patch cards of players that played several decades ago. Could it be a fake? Could someone have actually torn this card apart ... a REAL Bobby Doerr Topps card and swap out a plain old relic for a patch?  And if so, how? Well, let me show you. Simply take this card: Saw it in half: and put

This week in Customs … (Yeah, I’m a little bit excited)

(If you don't want to read the below drivel, and are not a big fan of pictures, I have a video below showing off some customs ... but please do stick around and read this first, if you have the time!) So, I think I have an addictive personality. When I first got on my own, I BALLOONED to quite a rotund size, thanks to an IV drip of dr. pepper, and a steady diet of McDonalds.  I couldn't stop drinking that sweet, sweet nectar of the gods.  Thanks to running and a much better diet (read: a wife who

The Tri-Star Show & the Case of the Grumpy Dealer

The Tri-Star show is something that I look forward to like Christmas.  I always am able to make lots of deals, have a TON of fun, and come home with a haul of cardboard to go through & enjoy. That didn't happen this time. Friday was fairly dead for me, and I ended up spending about $20 or so on a few Canseco cards for the collection, and a few cards to resell.  I ended up picking a Mike Lowell printing plate, a Bobby Doerr bat card and a Tony Perez bat card for 50 cents each . Those were

10 OUTRAGEOUS things you can do with baseball cards … #7 will SHOCK you. (plus – video inside)

How is that title for click-bait? I'm sorry, friends - I don't have a list of 10 outrageous or shocking things that you can do, but I wanted to pay homage to all of those websites that post on facebook and encourage me ... no ... spiritually move me to click, just so I can see what the heck is so shocking about #7. While I'm there, might as well read the other 9 as well! My wife is complete opposite ... she won't click on something like that if her life depended on it. I guess I'm the only

Join me LIVE in going to Super Collector Status … plus … customs!

Today has all the makings to be a big mail day for me, and my PC. Something that could potentially make me go from being a Canseco collector to a Canseco SUPER collector. Why do I say that is could, and not that it is? Well, that is because as I type this, I am waiting for the mail man to deliver my 30 pound package to me. It is coming from up north, and as of yesterday morning, the USPS website showed this: I was very skeptical about this, because - how can a package come so far, so

A Christmas Gift from Tony Danza

With today being the first of a brand new year, I thought it would be appropriate to recap 2014 today. Yeah, I know it would have been better if I had done this yesterday, but better late than never! This year, I started doing custom cards - it all started when my childhood hero, Jose Canseco was going to come into town. I started toying with the idea of putting together a Topps base card one night, and post it on a forum. With a devilish grin, I posted it, very proud of myself - wondering how many thousands of
