Card of the Day - 2011 Allen and Ginter : Chris Sale Mini Frame Autograph


Whoops . . .

I am sure this has happened to many of you but this is the first time it has happened to me as I try to keep all my lists up to date but obviously this one fell through the cracks.

Sale is a great young pitcher and I wanted an autograph of his in my collection which was accomplished when I acquired a 2014 Topps Five Star copy. I only needed one of Chris so I was done. Well I forgot to update my to acquire list and still had this Ginter mini frame on my watch list on eBay and when the final day came around the cost was still well below book ($20) so obviously I was going to try to purchase it at a deal. I put my bid in which happened to be the new high and a few minutes later I ended up being the winner as no one else bid after me. A steal of a deal but when it came in and I was going to file it away I noticed my other Sale autograph. D'oh! At least I only spent the cost of a lunch for this card so it wasn't that big of a mistake.

Great card but I only really have need for one Sale autograph in my collection so if anyone is interested in this one (I prefer the Five Star for me) I am more than willing to part with it in some trade.

Thank you for reading and have a blessed day.

  2. Sale is very underpriced. I've picked up a few autos of his for trade bait for around $10!

    1. It hurts that he plays for the "wrong" Chicago team. Just like Stanton in Miami, if they both played for "better" teams their prices would reflect it
