Thursday 28 March 2013: From listia for free free I got one lone card. I don't mind it was in a PWE but it had nothing else the PWE was a smaller note envelope not standard letter it felt incredibly thin but fortunately came through unscathed. The card a 1991 Fleer Baseball 479 Dave Johnson Orioles (the younger Dave Johnson not the current Nationals Manager "Davey" as I originally thought when I first hit the "bid" button, but a few seconds later realized it was the "other" Dave Johnson.)

Got a package on Tuesday 26 March 2013 that had been sent via UPS (UGH and HAD to be SIGNED FOR per senders request). The package ended up being way smaller and lighter than I had been lead to believe. From the UPS "we attempted to deliver this" stickers I could have sworn one of them said the thing was 9 Pounds, ended up the package was a small padded envelope that was sort of light. Any way it had 3 cards.
The package was from SPORTLOTS and from the $2.00 shipping and listing description there was NO indication that UPS would be the carrier used or that a signature to receive was REQUIRED. Any way 2 of the 3 cards were really wanted or desired, The third one was a "gift" I assume. I thought the listing was for the 2 cards but only one is showing, maybe something was changed or I had really won two sportlots auctions? Anyway the auction bid cost was only the usual starting .25¢

On Thursday 21 March 2013 I got some sportlots stuff and my big order from Check Out My Collectibles (was "Cards" still COMC) this was my 2nd or I think really my 3rd order from them since I've been a member there in 09? All the sportlots stuff was baseball the COMC was mostly baseball but some football
First the Sportlots stuff: (I like doing stuff by year but I'll do it by seller so I can get the prices w/shipping correct)
Dealer 1: Four Cards shipping was $3.00 each card was starting bid of .25¢ 1960 Topps Baseball 43 Washington Senators TC w/checklist marked 1969 Topps Baseball 377 Gary Bell Pilots 1978 O Pee Chee Baseball207 Montreal Expos TC checklist unmarked 2007 Upper Deck Masterpieces Baseball 25 Carl Yastrzemski Red Sox
Dealer 2: One card .25¢ + .75¢ shipping 1966 Topps Baseball 156 D.P, Combo Dick Schofield and Hal Lanier Giants
Dealer 3: Seven cards plus 2 bonus cards $3.50 + $2.50 shipping 1972 Topps Baseball 223 - 1971 World Series Game No 1 224 - 1971 World Series Game No 2 225 - 1971 World Series Game No 3 226 - 1971 World Series Game No 4 227 - 1971 World Series Game No 5 228 - 1971 World Series Game No 6 229 - 1971 World Series Game No 7
BONUS CARDS: 1987 Topps Collectors Series Baseball Highlights 1 (of 33 card set) Steve Carlton Giants 1984 TCMA Arkansas Travelers Minor League Baseball 16 Curtis Ford
COMC Big order. 44 cards I used my store/site credit Since I Ordered more than 40 cards shipping was free my total was $75.85 most expensive card was the '72 Frank Robinson at $10.24 the second expensive was the triple sig card at $7.25 next biggest price was $5 or nearly five from a few of the vintage cards most of the rest were under a buck. A lot of these cards I am surprised I didn't have them before, a couple of the Baseball Game cards were upgrades for poorer conditioned cards. I'm surprised they had all the cards in penny sleeves and the two slightly larger cards were actually in toploaders.
Football (5 cards) 1968 Topps Football Stand-Ups 22 Norm Snead Eagles Intact 1967 Philadelphia Football 88 Roman Gabriel Rams 1978 Topps Football 409 Roman Gabriel Rams 2012 Topps Football: QB Immortals QI-JN Joe Namath Jets (the dark green team years banner with black letter is impossible to read without a very very bright light directly on the dang thing I almost thought it was a printing error) QI-KW Kurt Warner Rams (I saw the team banner on this card before the Namath card so I knew there was supposed to be writing there)
Baseball: 1953 Topps 67 Roy Sievers Browns 1955 Topps 16 Roy Sievers Nationals 1957 Topps 89 Roy Sievers Senators (one of the many cards I could have sworn I already had) 1959 Topps 74 Directing The Power: Lemon Lavagetto Sievers Senators 465 BASEBALL THRILLS: Sievers Sets Homer Mark Roy Sievers Senators 1962 Topps 88 Ralph Houk (Yogi Berra in background which usually increases this card's price got it for $4.25) 1965 Topps574 Roy Sievers Senators (someone wrote a "6" in blue ballpoint pen lightly on his shoulder but it's about 3/4 of an inch tall - another card I could have sworn I had) 1967 Topps 348 Tug McGraw Mets 1968 Topps Game (two of these were upgrades for poorer cards) 5 Harmon Killebrew Twins (upgrade) 9 Brooks Robinson Orioles 13 Gary Peters White Sox (upgrade) 1969 Topps 650 Ted Williams MGR Senators (could have sworn all day long I had this one even thought I had dupes) This one is way off center to top almost a miscut 1972 Topps 754 Frank Robinson Dodgers (Traded Stamp) 1973 O Pee Chee 30 Tug McGraw Mets 1973 Topps 30 Tug McGraw Mets (why didn't I have this?) 1979 Topps 345 Tug McGraw Phillies 1981 Donruss 61 Ray Knight Reds 1981 Fleer 198 Ray Knight Reds 1981 Topps325 Ray Knight Reds 1982 Fleer 71 Ray Knight Reds 1982 Topps 525 Ray Knight Reds 1983 Topps 441 Houston Astros 1982 Batting & Pitching Leaders Ray Knight and Joe Niekro 1984 Donruss 232 Ray Knight Astros 1984 Fleer 229 Ray Knight Astros 1984 Topps Nestles 660 Ray Knight Astros 1984 Topps 660 Ray Knight Astros 1985 Donruss 617 Ray Knight Mets 1985 Fleer 86 Ray Knight Mets 1985 Topps 590 Ray Knight Mets 1986 Donruss 597 Ray Knight Mets 1986 Fleer 86 Ray Knight Mets 1987 Fleer 14 Ray Knight Mets 1988 Score: Traded 17T Ray Knight Tigers 2008 Tristar Projections: GR8 Xpectations: Triple Signature Washington D.C.'s Future GR8s: Jake Smolinski GCL Nationals, Jordan Zimmermann Vermont Lake Monsters, Josh Smoker Vermont Lake Monsters (the Lake Monsters were Expos/Nats affiliates from their founding in 1977 to 2010, from 2012 - present they are assoc. w/ the A's) On STICKER sigs blue sharpie Smokers has the top part of a second sig possibly another of his from the edge of the stickers 2010 Topps: Opening Day 80 Nick Johnson Marlins 2010 Topps: Opening Day: Blue Border 80 Nick Johnson Marlins 0489/2010 2010 Topps: Walmart?

Today Wednesday 20 March 2013, I got my goodies from a group box break held by a blogger. Samuel of The Daily Dimwit held a group box break of 2004 Diamond Kings and 2005 Cracker Jack. I bought the Washington/Montreal slot and my random team was Seattle (small base Ichiro Mojo) I didn't get any hits just base, but that is OK because these are two of the millions of sets I'm trying to build. Here is what I got: 2004 Diamond Kings75 Ichiro Mariners 118 Orlando Cabrera Expos (he was traded to Boston during the summer of 2004 so he was NEVER a NAT) 141 Bret Boone Mariners (Grandson of Ray Boone, Son of Bob Boone and Brother of Aaron Boone who was a NAT) 2005 Topps Cracker Jack19 Bret Boone Mariners 28 Gil Meche Mariners 46 Joel Pineiro Mariners 52 Richie Sexson Mariners 86 Raul Ibanez Mariners 88 Bucky Jacobsen Mariners 125 Ichiro Mariners 132 Randy Winn Mariners 153 Brad Wilkerson Nationals 188 Jeremy Reed Mariners mini153 Brad Wilkerson Nationals
