Yesterday I had a huge package waiting for me in the mail box. It was from Ryan over at “ ‘O’ No, Another Orioles Blog“. I had sent him a package of a couple Lineage and Topps Chrome refractors he needed along with a couple things from his needs/wants lists. In return he sent me a really nice Curt Schilling jersey card I had my eye on and a whole giant box of stuff.
The wife and I had our first date night in about 9 months. My brother volunteered to watch the kiddo and we took some time for ourselves to kick back and relax a little. We decided to get some food, some coffee and see The Muppets.
Pardon me while I get completely belligerent for a minute, but the Red Sox just signed 32 year old Kelly Shoppach as catcher and I can’t wrap my head around what on earth Ben Cherington is thinking, let alone smoking. Whatever it is, I’d like the number of his dealer.
I got my first trade package in the mail over the weekend from my new friend Johnny over at Cards From the Quarry. Johnny is a Rockies fan and I sent him a couple jersey relics, parallels and just about anything Rockies related I had. In return he was kind enough to send along a whole stack of awesome stuff. He included a bunch of fantastic Goudey, Goodwin Champions and lots of recent Upper Deck, which I’m extremely grateful for. I didn’t have anything from the early 2000’s. Now I’ve got a great start on lots of 2008-2005 stuff. The highlights from the trade were definitely these…
So, before this years Diamond Giveaway ends on New Years, I thought I’d take a look back through what cards I had received and see if any of them are worth the shipping cost. The answer, not many. There are quite a few 80’s cards that are simply junk wax. Out of the whole thing I think there’s only 3 or 4 cards I have any interest in. I’ll post a list of what I have in case anyone is interested in any of them.
