Ten years, The Eighth


I'm starting to realize that the big difference between collecting cards as a teenager and an adult is that I seem to fall behind on literally every facet of card collecting as an adult.

I'm hopelessly behind in filing cards away, mailing cards out, writing trade posts (or heck, writing any posts) - just one big uphill climb. Never really happened with my gobs of teenage time and energy. I've enjoyed these giveaway posts for many reasons, one of them being that they've forced me out of completely neglecting the blog and getting something up here at least once a week. And it hasn't felt like work - I've genuinely enjoyed picking cards to post, and seeing what people claim/don't claim. Giving cards away is a lot of fun.

Which is all just a long lead-in to this week's giveaway, complete with the above Gary Sanchez jersey card (#ed to 500, if that's something that sways you), as well as everything you'll find below.
