What in the ???? I put those packages in the bin at the post office here in the Phoenix area Saturday around 12:30 MST. It friggin' made it to Florida, and to your door, this afternoon ? Wow. Hurray USPS !
How was the residue on the gum cards ?
All payments accept one are in with all but the one shipped. Scans of tracking sent in PMs. May USPS be as good to all as flcardtrader !!!
So a package can make it from Horse to Florida, but can't make it across town?!?!?! But another package mailed Saturday made it from NY to me?!?!?! I guess I should have just swung by on Saturday and picked it up after lunch at Dylan's BBQ.
I was shocked to see the package though as I live in a smallish city outside of Jacksonville so it had a could extra hops to get to me. I was floored.
Gum residue is minimal to the three packs I opened. You can see the pieces all came off intact laying off to the right in the images. There is a bit of leftover residue but not bad at all.

Larkin,, you better split man.. I bet they found the crack rocks in the package.
Dylan's is just a couple miles from here
Sometimes I just don't understand how the USPS operates. I could have driven the roundtrip between our houses about 48 times so far (with 8 hours of sleep each night and factoring in stops for gas and food).

Mine says "processing exception". That's a new one.
Tape over the barcode with a wrinkle in it is preventing the automated processing. That's my best guess.
I did get an update with no timecode at some point today, wasn't there this morning ...

Hopefully, my package is picking up some rippping whiskey while visiting KY.
That is just nuts.. You are like 15 miles away from where the package was dropped off in the post office at 59th ave and the 101. And now.. it's in Kentucky.
I've been using electronic labels since they got invented.
I can tell you people can send it Massachusetts to LA in under 48 hours = but if you try to send it say Las Vegas to LA which is 4 hrs drive takes upwards of a week.
Depending on City, temp workers in sorting centers, and other factors you'd be surprised how things move. Sometimes weather comes into play if snow storms are involved that might move something by ground instead of air and if you're an unlucky individual when that shipping occurs oh well. One package I had endure 33 separate Scan locations before being delivered and had a tracer on it for the last 17 of them.
Ripped mine today. Lynn Swann was the wax card otherwise nice. Also pulled an oc Staubach. The rest were commons but mostly nice corners and good centring
And Larkin’s is now headed back to Phoenix from Kentucky! That is tooooo funny.
Yes, it got here Saturday, but must have forgot to pick up the ripping whiskey while it was there
Decent star power out of 10 cards, but OC tiltiness on those. Van Heusen is the closest to submittable in my pack ...
And a nice bonus to add to my Jordan Golfing showcase and save it from whatever torture may have been planned ...

@JakeR2234 - I did not see any at first glance but will peer harder sometime.

Excellent !

Mine arrived but didn’t have a chance to open the box yet. Will probably rip one and save two.
Any Websters Yet??? I'm hoping
Got mine. thx again, Tom
Got mine yesterday. Luckily the wrapper was a bit offcenter so I have an excuse to open it. Not sure when though.
I opened all 6 packs. Bradshaw and Tarkenton OC which is par for the course. Some other cards that are pretty nice though. Let's see the Payton!!

We should do a monthly 1970's box break.
