Just in the past two days, I've received four bubble mailers, and all were freebies!!
The first package was from an ebay seller. I was debating putting a bid on some Tim Lincecum bowman draft cards, but with the iffy title, I didn't know exactly what I was getting. So I had my mom (which is how i use ebay) to ask the seller a question that would clear up my doubts. The seller didn't respond until the next day, when the auction was over, so I didn't bid on the auction. The seller just said something like "Tell me his favorite players and I'll get some cards out." They didn't have to do that, but I said I like Lincecum, Bumgarner, and Yankees. I open the package and there are 13 Bumgarner Draft cards, 1 base gold, a Lincecum draft base, and a Lincy draft chrome! Awesome freebies from the seller..totally didn't have to do that.
The next package was from J.O., a member here on the boards. He has sent me a package or two before to help with my Xfractor collection, and the stubborn guy won't accept anything in return. He sent me a Jake Smolinski Xfractor from 07 draft and a Steve Garrison Xfractor from 08 draft. Thanks a lot, J.O.! You're a great guy!
The third was a package from a contest held by board member bungle77. Inside were three Xfractors, each from 08 Draft. They were: Clayton Kershaw, Wilkin Ramirez, and Bryan LaHair. Thanks a lot bungle! You're also awesome!
The last package was the unforgettable one. Like the first, I had no idea it was even coming. It's wide mailer, so I figure someone has sent a lot of cards. I cut it open and inside is a note and a nice assortment of yankees cards! I teared up upon reading the note..it was the best thing ever for someone to sit down and write a note and have himself and his kid sign it. Just the thought..wow. And the guy isn't even a board member here! It was really special. Take a look:
The cards were very nice too. A nice amount of Mussinas, Jeters, and Matsuis among others. Paul is an absolute class act. Very very generous and kindhearted gesture by him and his son Cameron.
Sorry for the long read, just had to share the generosity of these members. God Bless all of them and all of you.
Happy Holidays,
Anthony
