No sorry about that and no it was not a clue. I just wanted to show off some of my vintage stuff I've had since the time they were not vintage. Again sorry for the misdirection.

HINT: I can say it is one of the 4 Major sports and it is more directly card related to that sport.

keeping the empty wrappers/boxes

Nope. Sort of did the wrapper thing, and sort of still do with vintage since modern now is mostly plastic and foil that doesn't open up as cleanly for saving. Boxes were never quite my thing 1) I hardly found any I was really interested in 2) I have enough worries about storage space for my cards 3) They are often "out of my league" pricewise.

Nope that is the same thing as Steve's (aceecards) Stadium giveaways guess and it's been a couple or more years since I've been to a game (Nats) ACK!

Nope. Good idea but I rarely get to go to games.

[proGr@m217]

need more clues, man.

[captkirk42]

need more clues, man.

OK
I've already said it is:
* Something I was out of for a while and have recently started getting back into
* Sports related (one of the 4 major ones: Baseball, Football, Hockey or Basketball)
* DC team related
* Card related (or about cards)


New hint to narrow things down (almost to the point of giving it away):

* It is one of the teams that has not been in their sport's playoffs for a while. That rules the Capitals out as they were in the playoffs last year.

DING! DING! DING! WE HAVE A WINNER! Close enough I'm concentrating on the Bullets Pre-1980s but will also get some Wizards base.

PM me your address and fave team(s)/players and I'll see what I can send your way.

Wizards! You know what would be funny, to be the ultimate Andray Blatche super collector. I dare you to make that banner and just leave it on your page at the bottom of your posts for a week. Ha!

[captkirk42]

Want to do another round soon. Not sure when or exactly what yet. Not even sure of the prize.

[captkirk42]

I'll try to think of something to giveaway in the next few days. No Guarantee though.

[captkirk42]

It has been a very long time since I've done one of these sooooooo. I posted a RAC giveaway in the Basketball Trading Forum called Need To Purge. I am doing just that purging a bunch of cards from my trading card hoard. I might do the same thing with Hockey and Football soon. Who knows?

Long story short I am giving way team lots of Basketball cards, see that Purge thread for details and to sign up for it. First come First serve.
