Miller back to the minors? 0000-00-00 00:00:00 A day after the Marlins sent Rick VandenHurk to the minors
after going 0-2, Andrew Miller
stunk up the place big time by giving up 6 runs and couldn't get out of the 4th inning for the second consecutive start. The Marlins have lots of options in their farm system ...
Is Walt’s life in danger…? 0000-00-00 00:00:00 There's just something about this photo that doesn't look right. Forget the fact that the two Steroid Monsters are having a great time, possibly at the expense of Mr. Weiss but can somebody tell me why Walt looks so, I don't know....terrified?
You know, I sometimes evoke a lot of anger ...
Heavenly Collections - Jeremy Bonderman 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I had all but laid Heavenly
Collections to rest when out of the blue, thanks to Joey from Squeeze Play Cards a stranger e-mailed me about his Jeremy Bonderman player collection. You see, David had collected baseball cards for most of his life but it wasn't until 2003 that he ...
Fake patch makers might be braindead 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Sometimes I am shocked at the fake patches I spot on eBay throughout the week. Some are incredibly easy to spot but you'd be surprised how many people actually fall for these scams and waste hundreds of dollars on these patches.
The patch below is my nominee for worst fake patch ...
Death by blogging 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Wow, just read an interesting and somewhat scary article from the New York Times about Bloggers dropping dead left and right. It was pretty eye-opening considering that I could relate a great deal to it. For example, when Tatiana and I get home from buying a new box of baseball ...
A new addition to the Ozzie Canseco collection! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Yup, a foul ball hit by Ozzie from tonight's game. I would have loved to catch one of his home runs from the game he and Jose played in last month but it was just not meant to be. Needless to say, this ball was not really something I should ...

Book value means nothing online 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Pardon me if I caught on a little too late. Last night while surfing a baseball card forum I found a fellow Andrew Miller fan, as energetic and enthusiastic as anyone could be. He went to the forum for the specific purpose of finding new Andrew Miller cards to add ... Read more:online

On the radio!!! TUNE IN NOW! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Wow, this is exciting!!! Check out the radio show HERE.
I am second on the guest list just behind the CEO of SPC Auctions and in front of "Mr. Mint" Alan Rosen. Yeah, you know him from those Beckett ads. I will post the download link when it becomes available. If ...
A no-hitter on LSD? 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Dock Ellis was a pretty great pitcher in the late 60's and throughout the 70's. He started in an All-Star Game, won a World Series ring, had 19 and 17 win seasons, and ended his career with a 3.46 E.R.A. At the same time, he was a bit of a ...
Calm down, Reds Fan 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Yes, I am talking to you. I am as excited as anyone else over this new pitching phenom but before you go out and spend a small fortune on his rookie card, remember one thing: he's only pitched in two games. Sure, he's been close to perfect but let's not ...
1st Video Blog! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 This is something I am going to begin doing more often. Of course, this will never take away from the core of Wax Heaven, written posts. I will always continue to write like a maniac but Vlogging was only the next natural step for the site. Imagine having 80+ competitors ...
My Bowman Chrome gamble 0000-00-00 00:00:00 In this hobby of ours, every collector is different. Some of us collect a specific player, others just a team. Some have a passion to build sets, others just autographs & relics. A few only collect a specific brand or release, while others collect every card they can get their ... Read more:Chrome
Battle of the Cosmic Inserts 0000-00-00 00:00:00 There's a special kind of collector that is not satisfied with the regular old Refractor but has absolutely no shot at the fabled SuperFractor, through a pull or even eBay. In the late 90's, before the days of 1/1 SuperFractors he would be an 'Atomic Refractor' kind of guy. Those ... Read more:Battle
An eBay auction on LSD? 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Nevermind that Grady Sizemore is a great baseball player who only seems to be improving. He is a guy with speed, power, and the ability to score 100 runs every year. You won't get an argument from me, as I have his cards in my Stars Box. My question to ...
Beckett Media under fire (again) 0000-00-00 00:00:00 When I first heard that Beckett
had started it's own blog I thought it was the coolest thing around. After all, I had just gotten back into the hobby and had just created Wax Heaven (called Canseco Completist back then). Every day I would check out their blog to see ...
Andrew, don’t let Tatiana down! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 You guys, the Anonymous Astros Fan has issued a challenge to Wax Heaven and we could not pass it up. If you don't remember A.A.F, check out this post. Yes, we love him but this rivalry goes beyond baseball cards. This is about home team pride and our Florida Marlins ... Read more:Andrew
The many faces of Heritage Prospects 0000-00-00 00:00:00 While looking through my commons box last night for Florida Marlins I came across a stack of 2007 Bowman Heritage
. While looking to pull Dan Uggla and Josh Willingham, I began finding one horrible Bowman Heritage Prospect card after another. This has led me to create the Top 5 worst ... Read more:faces
Make me an offer I can’t refuse! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 The Florida Marlins are in first place and now are leading Major League Baseball in home runs. I don't think I have been so excited in a long, long time. I pulled out my Dan Uggla & Josh Willingham cards out of my commons box and now I want to ...
Guess who’s back? 0000-00-00 00:00:00 The hottest baseball card of 2007, a Bowman Chrome Superfractor of Joba Chamberlain is back on eBay for the first time since November when it sold for just over $5,000. Wax Heaven was just a baby then but we reported on it, check it out.
So what has changed since November ... Read more:Guess
Who wants a custom Allen & Ginter card? 0000-00-00 00:00:00 "JBel4331"is the online name he goes by and he has a passion for making custom
baseball cards. Thanks to him, I now will have a 2008 Allen
& Ginter Ozzie Canseco baseball card to print out and hand to Ozzie. I am so excited! The photo used is from my ... Read more:wants
When it’s all gone 0000-00-00 00:00:00 The other day I received an email from reader Jason who posed an interesting question: What are the card companies going to do when all the bats from legends like Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Lou Gehrig, and Roberto Clemente are gone? I mean think about it, there are only so ...
New Blogger stole my thunder! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 For the last three months I have been scouring eBay for a box of 1997 Pinnacle Certified and/or 1997 Totally Certified. They were two brands that came out during the time I was losing interest in the hobby and never bought enough packs of, something I have always come to ... Read more:Blogger
The Jose Cruz Jr. Conspiracy 0000-00-00 00:00:00 In 1997, a 23-year old came out of nowhere and in no time became one of the hottest hitter in the American League. His name was Jose Cruz Jr. and he was an outfielder for the Seattle Mariners, who was not only out-hitting & out-hustling the best player in baseball ... Read more:Conspiracy
JBel4331 comes through for Wax Heaven! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 JBel4331 felt absolutely terrible that some of the request for custom Allen & Ginter cards were not able to be used so he put in some overtime and came out with even more custom cards. To clear up any confusion: JBel4331 would have done these cards for absolutely nothing in ... Read more:comes

AOL Fanhouse REALLY likes Wax Heaven 0000-00-00 00:00:00 So this is what an article by a real journalist looks like. It's about Griffey's long journey to 600 home runs and what could have been.
Here is an article written by a high-school drop out (I was expelled, actually). The problem is I wrote it WAY back in November 2007, ... Read more:Heaven

WE NEED YOUR VOTES!!! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Well, it's that time again. Heavenly Vixen series two is in the works and this time there is something REALLY big to go along with it. First of all, if you don't remember or weren't around, here are the series one scans. They were created, printed out, and given away ...
Andruw Jones & the two-year slump 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I see it all the time in my other sport, boxing. Many times you find guys that are younger than most but completely washed up before their time. One example of that would be Fernando "El Feroz" Vargas who won his first title at just 21and was put in against ...
Custom A & G cards have arrived 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I just got back the batch of custom cards made by JBel4331. Unfortunately, out of the 10 requests made by readers of Wax Heaven, only 6 photographs were suitable to be used for the set. Next time custom card orders are taken I will ensure there is enough time to ...
If you thought 19-year old chocolate was bad… 0000-00-00 00:00:00 ...imagine the look on Tatiana's face when a box of 20-year old Bazooka Joe gum came in the mail. David, from Cardboard Junkie sent over a few cards today as a thank you for his Heavenly Vixen card and included was an ancient box of Bazooka Joe gum along with ... Read more:thought
2008 Baseball Heroes preview! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Well, what do you know...yet another worthless brand that might actually dupe people into buying it. Everyone knows the classic design of Baseball Heroes inserts from the early 90's Upper Deck products. Well, it's back and now as its own set. I gotta say, I am hooked. If I can ...
