Has Everyone Heard the News?!?!?

Night Owl bought and opened MULTIPLE packs of 2012 Topps!!!

And you thought Josh Hamilton's relapse was a big deal.

Today's post is an expensive one. Or at least, it should have been. After the holidays I made some additions to the '64 coins set and knocked off some big names in the process. Leading off...


I've always wondered. The name, Billy Williams. Billy is a nickname for William. So is this guys full name William Williams?
OK, all joking aside, HOFer, 6 time All-Star, Chicago legend, 1964 vintage- $10 would be a comfortable price.


Seriously, what does Billy Williams birth certificate say?
Anyways, if I saw a BIN set at $20 for this Clemente, I'd pull the trigger.


Another $20 coin.
But really though, Billy Williams.
William Williams.
Willy Williams!
Bill Will.

So for all three coins, if I was planning a budget, I would fully expect to pay about $50. Give or take. "So how much did I pay?!" I hear you asking. Well voices in my head, I paid one easy payment of only $18.49!


I mean come on , that'd be like naming your kid Christopher when your last name is Christie.
Chris Christie.
Oh.



Really?
