Good morning everyone.

Canadian dollar continues to fall, making the hobby a little more expensive for those of us north of the border.

- Rodrick

But.....It makes selling a little more lucrative. I've played the market before...buy when the dollar was up and sell to the US when the dollar went down
Now makes a good time to do some housekeeping


Shipping to Canada has become such an issue, it's one of the reasons I rarely purchase any more. Most sellers either will not ship to Canada, or require tracking for stuff as minimal as $50, some sellers make it mandatory. Thats an $11 tax for living in Canada on top of my item.

PLUS $7.05 or something like that just to ship it there.

Morning!

Good morning. Packing this morning for the trip to the frozen land (Minnesota) I'm getting excited

 

[Bill Menard]

As Nick Dundee would say "Good'ay" All!

Dave, my congratulations to Theresa as well! Excellent moment for your family I'm sure!

Been a good start to my 40th year of life and probably 30th (!!!) of collecting. Still working on the Bowman Chrome set line from 2001-present. Picked up a bunch of autos this past week, but the only one that has come in so far is a Shelby Miller 2010 BC auto... I hope everything is just slow due to weather slowing down the postal system! I'll post some new scans when stuff arrives.

In non card news - the blower for the heat in my car appears to have died... talk about a cold ride to work! SHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT! My teeth chattered the whole way into the office~~~

Good morning everyone!!

Yo

Good Day.

I secured a much-needed job interview yesterday. Hopefully this leads me somewhere. The pay won't be much, but coupled with re-selling, it should make a good amount.

Haven't grazed the thread yet but wanted to drop a hello to everyone

Best of luck with that! I'm still looking, too.

Thanks! Good luck to you as well in your search.

I'm sick of ordering cards ahead of time for signings, and the sellers refuse to ship until it's too late.

Never had such a large order not come when it needed too. I'm downright mad.

Sounds like a fun ride!
Every car I've owned (4) has had to have a heater fan motor replaced at least once. Ford escort was a PITA, ford ranger wasn't bad, Pontiac GTP had to replace it twice in 18 months and My truck currently only works on full blast. 1-4 simply won't work
