Rod SI bought a collection 3 weeks ago. Unfortunately, sometimes you have to take the bad with the good. Is anyone out there interested in complete sets of Topps Desert Storm Series 2 or William Shatners Tek World? I have 20 sets of Tek World and..... wait for it..... 85 sets of Desert Storm Series 2, with stickers, hand collated, not factory. OK you can all stop laughing now. I would love to trade some of these sets away, they are heavy, I would not be asking for much in trade. PLEASE !!!!!

Scifi Cards Charity Card Information...
As you might remember, we are going to have a special promo only available with a donation to support long time dealer and friend of the show Bill Hejelmgren. It is double sided (printed on both sides, no stickers) and features the BB-8 artwork by guest Jeff Abar. It is made on gold metal stock and they were generously donated by Faerie Metal Photograph so all the funds go straight to Bill to help with all the costs from being out of work while being treated for colon cancer and the related complications.
IF we have any left, I may make them available for mail order. It just gets more expensive with costs involved, plus time.
Hopefully Bill will be up to stopping by on Saturday.Ed
