ON Saturday 13 Feb 2016 and Tuesday 16 Feb 2016: I got a total of 4 packages from a single auction from a single seller at Sportlots. 3 came on Saturday the last on Tuesday. Why he separated the 50 cards total into 4 packages I don't know. That is probably why for a .25¢ auction the shipping was $4.00. Anyway it was a lot of modern Wizards and Bullets ranging from 1984-2010.

On Saturday 14 March 2015: I got one package from a sportlots purchase for $1.25 plus $6.00 shipping (a little high maybe, but for what it was and coming in at 7oz. maybe maybe not) Six packs of 2012-13 Panini Past And Present Basketball. I plan on opening them sometime since I am going for the set of this. I don't pursue many modern Basketball sets because I only like the Washington Wizards Was Bullets from today's teams.

Today 31 May 2014: got my booty from the TCZ "Offiicial" Basketball Team Group Break. 2 or 3 years ago I would not be making a post like this, but since I got back into collecting the Bullets (Now Wizards) I figured why not?

On Thursday 09 January 2014: I got a one package one card mailday. From a sale at TCC for $5 delivered

2013-14 Panini Prizm Basketball: Hall Monitors 22 Wes Unseld Bullets - Nice Chrome look to it, it is the base. I might look for the various parallels to this card, and maybe the 24 other base cards, with maybe some of those parallels but not all.

Wednesday 24 April 2013: Got a single package from Kerry who writes the Cards On Cards blog as part of his "Guilt-Free Basketball Card Club". He sent a huge batch of Bullets and Wizards Cards (I counted 182 plus 1 sticker) with a sprinkling of 10 Cardinals cards as bookends in each team bag, way too many cards to mention individually here (aprox. 5 team bags worth) They appear to be mostly 1990s Bullets with some duplicates.

The "Why did you use this photo of the white dude looking lame?" 1993 Topps 262 Rex Chapman Bullets

Yesterday Friday 02 March 2012 I got one of those rare items that really is pretty rare from Ebay A 1969 Topps Basketball Ruler - 22 Wes Unseld Baltimore Bullets. I got it for a small steal of $9.99 + $3 shipping. I've seen a few of this one and some of the others in the set starting at much much more. These "rulers" are "cards" well really they are just strips of paper like the mini posters only these are 2.5" x 10". So they are 1 card wide and about an inch short of being 3 cards high. They were folded (3 folds) inserts packed into the regular card packs. They call them "rulers" because on the left-hand side of the front is ruled scale with a caricature drawing of the player portrayed. There are 23 in this set even though they are numbed to 24 (#5 was never issued, not even sure what/who it would have been).

It looks like there are two or three more of these things I want to get because of being a player who had played for the Bullets, plus there is the Lou Alcindor (AKA: Kareem Abdul Jabbar) heck maybe I'll chase the whole set since it is only 23, but the stars in the set go for mega bucks, so I might not ever have another one.
