Trade Relapse: The Good Kind

Recently, I saw another collector streamlining their collection to focus on what they truly want to collect. While perusing the cards now available to trade, I spotted many Jim Thome cards that I didn't have from the 2009 Spectrum release.

I took a stab in the dark and left a comment that I'd like a shot at the Thome cards. In no time, I received a correspondence inquiring my address.

When the package from Wax Pack Relapse arrived, I couldn't believe my eyes! In addition to the Spectrum cards, there were a bunch of other cards thrown in, that I hadn't a clue about beforehand. I love surprises, when they are good. This is ALWAYS the good kind of surprise.

Thanks so much! There are so many cool things in this package that I don't really know where to begin. O-Pee-Chee cards are always welcome. Unopened packs are always cool. Topps Attax is growing on me. Clear cards are awesome! I may have finished off a few team sets with this pile of cards.

I will be scouring the internet and card shops for Longoria cards and whatever else that might be on your want list. Thanks again!
