first my pens!!! spent way too much money here but so happy to get my first patch card 🥹🥹🥹 and more ville cards for my collection~ both the erik card and the pierre card are numbered, the metal universe rookie cards are SO PRETTY i love it sm

some of my FAVES was so happy to get a few flair cards bc i think the design is SO pretty. and the kiefer ones are both fancy and numbered and ofc my gabe card i've been wanting for FOREVER

i found SO MANY cards for my tyler collection including a dazzler !!!!! and my first canadiens card of him, so now the only teams i'm missing for him are the canucks and jets (which i already knew were gonna be the hardest to find since he played so few games for them........ but i'll start keeping an eye out on ebay now 👀👀)

and then i have some color flow cards !!!! as well as the gift cards (bryan rust card for jasmine not included so it can be a SURPRISE), aerin frankel card for my boston fleet coworker and some dahlin cards for my sabres coworker (he's her favorite) i hope they are a hit when i go back to work 🥺🥺

OK thats it for the fancy nice cards but i did also pillage the card store on santa monica pier for all the cool cards in their 25c bin and i wont go through all of them (most important find was another rickard rakell card !!!! yay !!!!!!) but i LOVE all the vintage ones i found in there !!!! the detroit one from 1996 is basically a vintage dazzler in everything but name im OBSESSED and ofc gabe dad card !!! and they had cheap packs from 1990 i just opened and its soooooo cool to see the old designs as well !!!!! (even if the 30yo gum sticks included in the packs needed to be treated like biohazards 💀💀💀)

and then ofc i got my free nhcd packs and bought a few from this millenium that i will open slowly !!! but overall very fun haul!!! im trying to justify it as i basically spent a hobby box equivalent of money overall and got so much more out of it than i would from a hobby box so. its ok~

but i highly recommend bullpen burbank, where i got most of my fancy cards the vibes there were immaculate. dont go there for pens cards i already got most of them BUT they do have a luca cagnoni young guns which i regrettably passed on so its YOURS if you're in the area. there's also a fancier hockey card store ACROSS THE STREET from them that i didnt get to go to bc they were closed 😔 but i heard it was great there too. the rest i got from rizo sports by the santa monica pier vibes were a bit icky in there BUT thats where i got the cool vintage packs if anyone in the area is interested. i did pull all the cool cards from their 25c bin so cant say theres much cool left there 💀💀
