    << <i>The last item for my gift will be arriving by Friday. So, I will be sending out the gift Monday morning for it's journey from the great white north to sunny San Dimas! >>



    The last item of my gift arrived today as I figured. I will be sending out the gift Monday via EXPRESS post. So from Canada to the US it should be 3-5 days. Lots of time to taunt the receiver from under the tree until the opening day!

    don't forget you may need to get that extra $1000 insurance to cover such a fine gift!

    I don't know how I could put a value on an autographed Bobby Orr rookie PSA/DNA certified with the card grading out at an 8.5? I would think that $1000 wouldn't even begin to cover it. I may just have to fly down and hand deliver it. Hey, if Santa can do it...so can Santa mathew!

    I received my gift today!!! My SS was generous enough to include an "appetizer" to tide me over until the 24th!! The official gift is still wrapped in a "box". image

    That appetizer would have more than qualified as the gift itself! He gave me THREE 1982 Topps Baseball Rack Packs!!! HOLY CRAP!!! Those wrappers didn't stand a chance, I had them open before I could even take my coat off, lol. However, the wrapped box will be sitting under our tree once we go cut it down this Saturday. The three rack packs didn't yield a Ripken, but they did contain MANY minty fresh stars and a lot of nice cards that I will use to upgrade my raw binder set.

    I know who my SS is, but I'm not sure if he wants me to let everyone know, so until then, please allow me to say THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It's gonna be an eternity until the 24th... I'll have to shove the package behind other gifts so it doesn't tease me. image

    BTW, I finally received my last piece for my SS recipient, so it will be at the post office tomorrow.

  • I received my package yesterday, and I cannot wait to open. As for my shipping, I sent some cards for 5 day turnaround to PSA and after 6 days, it is still not logged in. I spoke with Laura and she found the package and is going to try to expedite. It is going to cost me a ton to ship Canada in time for XMAS. I will make sure it is a good gift.

  • I received confirmation from my shipper (who had a vested interest in that is how he is repaying me for World Series tickets image ) in that all packages left for him (*except for my Topps Chrome Wrapper redemptions) have been shipped.

    So, if my Secret Santa recieves a package with the address of Pro Look in Allen Texas -0- that one is from me!
