Hi all, basketball card nut here!

[adhunt99]

Hi guys n gals, I'm 23 and from Tassie, actually moving to Canberra next weekend...

I'm a Uni grad in Economics and Law.
I play basketball and used to coach it. I've collected basketball cards on and off since i was about 12 I got back into it recently with the rise of game used and auto cards which i just think are wicked!
SP game used (06 and 07) are my favourite sets, my pride and joys are;

- 05/06 SP GU Triple Jersey Gold Jordan/LeBron/Kobe #/15
- 03/04 Exquisite Gilbert Arenas auto patch #/100
- 05/06 Exquisite David Robinson auto patch #/100
- 06/07 SP GU Carter/Jefferson Dual auto patch #/25
- 06/07 SP GU Quad jersey LeBron/Carmelo/Chris Paul/Dwightm #/10
- The full set of the 05/06 Legendary Fabrics cards!

I was recently in NY and saw nets/sixers (Vince v AI), and 3 knicks games vs washington, celtics and bucks - AND i was lucky enough to meet Gilbert Arenas, and get a jersey autographed!!

Needless to say i now collect Gil's cards

I also re-sell on ebay the cards I decide not to keep or when i upgrade! See my listings under 'adhunt99'

Cheers to all;
Andrew

Welcome to the Boards Andrew

we wont hold the fact that you're from Tassie against you but it's good to hear you are moving away!! LOL

i love the sound of that SPGU quad jersey featuring Melo!! you said it was one of you're pride and joys, but if you feel like parting with it send me a private message or PM if you will

Cheers mate,

Evan

Hi Andrew, welcome to the forum, i am sure you will enjoy it here. Going to an NBA game would have to be an awesome experience. Gilbert Arenas is great player to start collecting, he doesn't get alot of hobby love but i think will change in the very near future.

Welcome to the boards Andrew and good luck with your Arenas collection.

I was recently in NY and saw nets/sixers (Vince v AI), and 3 knicks games vs washington, celtics and bucks - AND i was lucky enough to meet Gilbert Arenas, and get a jersey autographed!!

What a great experience that would have been, to attend a few NBA games and also get to meet Mr Arenas himself.... lucky you!!!

welcome to ozcards mate, and good luck with the Arenas collection; prices may be on the up since his brillant start to this season!
