anyone else noticed, how few mccrea sketchs, budd sketchs are showing up? McCrea did less then most, and budd a lot less, but not like fractional ammounts of everyone else. McCrea did like 400, yet someone like Cat Staggs did 500, and there have been about 10x more online. Budd did 200, but ive seen maybe 8 total so far on that auction site. You would think by now, we would see a random sampling enough that it would be consistent. Who else have you all noticed not showing up a lot?


I have to agree with you on this. I think it has to do with how the cards got distributed in the cases. I received my first 2 cases last night and opened 2 boxes from one case and received one Budd, of which he only did 206, and one Erwert, of which he only did 256.

This is troubling seeing so many Kayanans and Staggs listed as my chances of pulling one of those is dwindling.

Are you suggesting the sketch cards could have been packed in waves - like an earlier case manufactured might have a different colation of rare sketch cards?/

Chris - Potentially yes. But it is only one theory. The more likely theory is it could be that people are simply holding onto these "rarer" cards as both these artistsa are apart of Group F Big Grin

I see this was pulled from that auction site. Did the seller get cold feet? Bidding had got up to $456!

The pictures have to be on your server, or a site such as imageshack in order to link to them... This topic has come up before - try doing a search.

Or you can wait for some helpful person who DOES have an imageshack or photobucket account (or something similar)...

On your computer in documents you should have a file for pictures. Put the picture on computer and save to pictures with name of pic.

Get a free account at photobucket.com with user name and password. When you do-log in. Near the top it has a space for submitting pics. Click browse. A window will open with your pic. names. Click on the pic name you want to save to photobucket. Then click open . Then click submit.

After pic is submitted, there will be three choices below it. I use the URL. Copy URL and go to Card Talk and click reply. At the top of reply is a tool bar. Second from last is display image. Paste URL in window and click ok button under window. I hope you can follow this since I worked it out by myself. Good luck! Smile
