Board Buzz: Must-read threads on Blowout Forums (Feb. 16)
The Blowout Cards Forums are where thousands of collectors converge daily to discuss, well, a little bit of everything. Here are a few threads about collecting and more that you should check out right now.
What's Buzzing: 2024 Topps arrives, MLB breaks, Rob Manfred, Zay Flowers and more in this edition.
Buzz Buys: Big buys, big cards, plenty of WWE & plenty more
Buzz buys and busts a lot of boxes right here for Buzz Breaks, but one of my goals is to rip a little less and talk more about cardboard that I -- and you -- might like. One way to do that? Simple show and tell -- present a few pick-ups and say why they captured my attention.
So, with all that said, here are a few Buzz Buys ... and this time around it's the biggest Buzz Buys ever. (A collection of pick-ups from recent times as well as in the past year or so.)

BUZZ FELT RICH AGAIN ...
The Card: Derek Jeter 2012 Panini National Treasures Prime Button (/6)
The Price: More than I'll admit.
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This was a premium-priced pick-up for me but I only landed it after getting rid of a lot of smaller cards slowly but surely -- and that's something I should do more often. Sure, it's centering is off -- that's the one obvious issue -- but I always liked the simplicity and lineup of options for this first year of Panini National Treasures. I typically stick to the old guys but a button card of a new Hall of Famer wasn't a bad add and at the price it's a good long-term hold. I got this at a fraction of many Jeter game-used button cards out there. That's all I'll say for now -- I'm keeping these a little shorter than normal as this is the biggest roundup of pick-ups I've ever done.

Rob Manfred's 2020 Topps card sparks some big eBay sales
Don't call it a Rookie Card -- it's not -- but you can call it one that's in demand.
It's a short-printed 2020 Topps Series 1 card of MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred and it's generated some pretty good heat on eBay since the arrival of the hobby's flagship set early this month.
Buzz Poll: Does Pete Rose get your Baseball Hall of Fame vote?
Pete Rose's quest for reinstatement by MLB was denied Monday after an investigation by commissioner Rob Manfred.
Rather than argue one way or another, Buzz simply wants to know if Rose would get your Hall of Fame vote if you had one.
