If you redeem, I would be interested to know how they ship and if you have any duty/fee troubles with UPS/Fedex. UPS charges some ridiculous prices for bringing over items of any value from the states... I would be curious to see if Topps has some arrangement so they take care of all the fees.
Congrats! I think I know which buyer you got it from...from RH right? Same guy I use in Canada.
BTW do you or any one else know the safest way to deliver from Canada for high end cards to get full ebay/paypal protection? Always wondered about this, but never pulled a very high end card to...

I think Toronto still finishes ahead...even with the loss of Halladay, they still have pretty good pitching. I guess it also depends on how well lind, hill, snider, and wells (expecting at least some sort of rebound) perform.
I find that SCF is good for trading low end cards (especially for set building) and have had success in that regard.
I wouldn't mind sending cards to someone with high feedback before being paid if it wasn't too much money, but I do see the concern. I guess it depends on who you are trading...
I busted one case of Indiana Jones Heritage from the black friday sale. Unfortunately, I was disappointed to find that 3 boxes were duds so I only got 5 hits. I did get 2 nice sketches though and a short round auto! Here are the hits below. The artists of the sketches are Paul Gutierrez...
