On Saturday 30 Jan 2016: I got a single bubble mailer from a Sportlots seller 2 auctions. This seller packaged cool with blue painters tape. I got a total of 6 cards 2 lots of 3 cards each for .25¢ each + $3.50 shipping. 3 of the cards were in individual toploaders and penny sleeves and the other 3 were in penny sleeves in one toploader. The only tape used inside the package was blue painters tape to help keep the team bag closed and on top of one of the toploaders (or I think it was on the entire group of toploaders)

106 Ed Meador Rams coin rub cartoon on back totally blank must have been a dud
