I won the monthly PSA sweepstakes!

Got an email from PSA last week telling me that their monthly winner did not claim their prize and they drew my name to replace him/her! I was thrilled since I've never won anything like this. Just rec'd my prize today. Pretty cool, even though I'm a baseball HOF collector exclusively, I love Star Wars and still remember the excitement and anticipation of standing in blocks-long lines in Westwood (L.A.) for the original releases in the late '70s and early '80s.

Not sure if I want to keep this or not, but will certainly listen to any trade offers for cards I need for my registry sets.

    Congrats on the win! I don't collect non-sports but a Gem Mint Star Wars card is a cool prize. I am also a past winner. Is it bad I forgot what I won? In my defense I haven't had a full night sleep in 20 months, since my daughter was born:) I am pretty sure I won a PSA 6 1967 Mantle (it was a late 60's PSA 6 Mantle for sure).

    @secretstash -- the way I entered was by clicking on the banner ad at the top of this page. The contest is one of the rotating ads that appear at the top of this page. From what I remember all you have to do is enter your name and email then wait for the email declaring you the winner:)
