Trading Across The Pond

Another unexpected package came from John, all the way from the UK. This time I was ready for him. It seems that his package of White Sox cards will be crossing somewhere with my package of Red Sox cards for him.

John has been a frequent gifter, who I only recently found out something that I could send in return. Since it seems like half of my packs are filled with Red Sox cards, there should be a good amount heading John's way in the future.

This package technically came yesterday, but I was a little busy with the last game of the season for the White Sox. So, the two packages I received on Monday, will be shown today. Today's package, I may save for tomorrow.

Let's see what goodies came in this package.

From the picture, I can already tell you that I received a 2008 Allen & Ginter Relic card of Paul Konerko. There were some other cards in the package.

1983 Donruss #67 - Salome Barojas
1983 Topps #758 - Aurelio Rodriguez
1986 Donruss #452 - Bryan Little
1986 Donruss #609 - Tom Seaver
1986 Fleer #207 - Jerry Hairston
1987 Fleer #635 - Steve Carlton (4,000 Ks)
1988 Score #307 - Bobby Thigpen
1990 Donruss #455 - Scott Fletcher
1990 Fleer #545 - Ken Patterson
1990 Topps #299 - Adam Peterson
1991 Score #27 - Jack McDowell

2008 Upper Deck #284 - Matt Thornton
2008 Upper Deck #285 - Ryan Bukvich
2008 Upper Deck #452 - Bobby Jenks

As a matter of fact, I did have better luck with this blind trade. I found 7 cards that I needed. The big one, of course, being the Konerko relic.

Thanks, John! A great bunch of cards, as always. Hopefully, my package will arrive soon in the UK.
