Tradewinds

Text of the day:

Me- This text is brought to you by that awkward moment when you realize that not only does she have a penis, but it's actually bigger than yours.
Tom- omg joe.... no way. Did you at least get a picture of it?

I swear, I hate my friends...

So, back to "reality". I've picked up some sweeeeet new cards recently, from both ebay and trades. I was gonna show off some new '64 Coins, but I guess I never took the pictures I thought I did, so I'll just do a couple trades first before I forget.

First up we'll showcase Play at the Plate's stuff since that ALDS collision is still fresh in everyone's mind. Not sure if Brian and The Collective Troll had another bet this year or not, but if they did then C.T. needs to stop placing those bets. Dude, if you wanna bet on baseball and win, bet against the Mets. I do it every year and sure I hate myself a little more with each passing breath, but self-esteem doesn't buy a swimming pool of gummi bears. A Wisconsin bank roll does.

Anyways, baseball cards. Here they are
Shiny makes me happy :^)

Nextly is a first time trade between Angels in Order and I. I know I wasn't his first trade and won't be his last, but I hope he remembers the trade we had. I just wish to trade with him again. Just one more trade. that's all i ask
First we have a smattering of 2003 MLB Showdowns. Only need a couple more to round out the team set now.

This is the gem of the trade for me. The only modern set I'm currently working on, 2007 Turkey Red and this is one of the SPs I still needed. With this I'm down to 14 left and then I'm done with set collecting! Well, modern at least. I still have the '64 Coins and I have some other vintage insert sets I want to do as well. The only reason why I haven't given up and taken the Turkey Red set apart yet is because I have way to much time and money into it. And at this point, it's just gotten personal.
Nothing like junk wax that you still need. Two former Top 10 Most Wanted cards with the Myers completing the '87 Leaf team set and the Cone bringing me to within one for the '88 Donruss set. I'm about halfway finished with the decade of the '80s so every maybe I'll get a want list together to help finish it off.

Thanks again for the trades guys!

  1. Man Joe, with friends like that...

    Hey, that Pelfrey looks more like a rolled up tortilla than the pic I put in my post! Well, I wasn't exaggerating much.
