A lone card in a small bubble mailer from Ebay. Well worth it. I have seen this vintage card go for way way too much it is usually at least 40 dollars starting on Ebay. I got it for $29.95 Plus $2.95 Shipping. Condition is pretty good. Only downside was they put it in a dang “card saver” (Ultra Pro) with tape across the opening. UGH. Fortunately I was able to get the tape off without any damage to card. I hate when sellers do that. I should have dinged them for it, but I was just so ###### excited to have this card in my collection. As I said I’ve seen the card start at $40 plus and better conditioned ones starting at over $100 or $200 and up for BIN prices. So now I have a 1968 Rookie Card of Reds Great Johnny Bench.1968 Topps #247 Cincinnati Reds 1968 Rookie Stars Johnny Bench Catcher and Ron Tompkins Pitcher. It is the “corrected” version with “the” spelled correctly. I noticed that around the time I won my auction another one had ended at only $12.something with 2 bids UGH. OH Well I still paid under my $40 preferred zone.

Also got a small padded envelope from Colbey of Cardboard Collections blog He had one of his affordable group box breaks in September (for $6.75 which got a paid team and a random team). It was an All Oh Pee Chee break the boxes opened were: 1991, 1992 and 1993 Premier. My paid team was my Expos Franchise and my random team was White Sox. 95 cards: 64 Expos, 31 White Sox and several dupes, triplicates, some quadruples.

ARGH! While finishing up my updating mail days I discovered a couple of cards that fell out of one of my Expos packages. I forget which one they go to one of the packages that I got with a bunch of Expos that were in a bubble mailer not one of the boxes.
2014 Topps Baseball: die cut mini 1989 style: blue TM-5 Tim Raines Expos
1989 Topps Baseball: “Rediscover Topps” Buyback: 590 Andres Galarraga Expos. My first “buyback” it is in great NM condition I still don’t like the things.

Holy updates, Batman! Lots of stuff there, Kirk! Looks like you've been busy!

Holy updates, Batman! Lots of stuff there, Kirk! Looks like you've been busy!

@Mike, to be honest it WAS 8 MONTHS worth of stuff, with most months getting 2 or 3 team lots from that Football group so Yeah Lots and Lots and Lots of stuff in Lots of Lots. It did take a few days to get caught up a few of the huge boxes I delayed going though which meant I couldn't post about the month I had gotten them in until I was basically finished with the whole project. I'm surprised that I actually thought to keep some of the stuff grouped together long enough to post about them. I almost decided to just forget the whole thing. It felt like trying to make a short and quick post about a huge trade package, or surprise gift package you get that has close to 200 cards in it.

Word of the wise to all the kiddies out there. DON'T wait to make mail day updates til the end of the year. Post 'em when you get 'em (or keep to a strict monthly update) and you won't have to do a mammoth "update" at the end of the year. I try and try to follow that, but most times fail and failed this past year.

Solid advice, Kirk. My problem is that I'm kinda OCD so as soon as I open a package I want to immediately get the card(s) organized into their proper spots in my collection. Then, I forget which cards came from who, from where, or when. ? That's why every time I try to do a mailday thread it ends up stalling and falling apart. ?‍
