in Trading Cards & Memorabilia Forum
I can't believe that I am approaching my 5000th post. I have learned so much about collecting over the last three years from these boards that I thought I would run a contest to express my appreciation for everything I have gotten from these boards over the last three years.

So, here are the details. Post the date that I make my 5000th post. Who ever is first to guess the correct date will receive a very nice gift! I am going to leave gift as a surprise, but it will be something special.

Good Luck! image

Edit to add: all guesses must be posted by 10/15/2011 by 11:59 EST.

    If you have been posting for 3 years you average 4.27 posts per day so it will take another 74 days.

    My guess in Dec 21st.
