Card of the Day - 2014 Bowman Draft : John Richy Base Chrome Green Refractor Parallel (104/150)

So, yeah.
I only acquire black and blue parallels of Dodgers now other than rare occasions like the rainbow project that I am still doing for Urias and Seager or if I can score a deal on a Kershaw parallel. That basically is what I am collecting now so why do I have this green card of the same guy that I showcased last weekend in blue form? Price of course.

This card has a Beckett book value of $5 which I only looked after I picked this up as I was curious on how much of a deal I got it for. This is rarer than the blue by 144 copies and I won that one for 99 cents so you would think this would be slightly higher right? Nope. Seller had this up on eBay for a mere quarter. I almost felt like I was wasting money, and yeah I know it's only a quarter, as it doesn't fit into any part of my collection but for 25 cents I put a bid in.

Of course I won for that amount. Ha Ha. Anyways, I now own a green copy of pornstache Richy to compliment the blue copy. Now to find the black pornstache.

Card of the Day - 2014 Bowman Draft : John Richy Base Chrome Blue Refractor Parallel (177/399)

I didn't know who Jeff Brigham was in the 2014 Bowman Draft set but I really didn't know who John Richy is. At least Brigham had an autograph to chase for so that "forced" me to figure out who that guy was. Richy on the other hand just had base and non autograph cards, to chase after.

The one thing I come away with after this purchase was, damn look at that pornstache !!! John is rocking the facial hair on this card and I love it.

I didn't expect much demand for John's card as he is not a "name" in the Dodger organization and even with a $4 value attached to this card in Beckett I was looking to spend no more than a $1 or so. Took a few days to find an auction that was suitable for me as sellers were still trying to make an extra buck or too on this card. Found this one with a starting price of 99 pennies and at the end of the day I was the only one to bid on it so all I had to part with was some loose change.
