Sorry this will be a long one:
To verify (and to contradict) whatever I said up above here is a recap of that 10 package mailday I had back two years ago (plus 6 days) Sorry no visuals:
------
On Thursday
(16 Feb 2012) I had a ten package mail day, 3 or four were small envelopes but there were 10 in all. Most was from a huge sportlots order and auctions from there, one small box was from an Ebay purchase and one package was from a trade with a member at another card forum the sportscard one that isn't the freaky one. He sent 70
Orioles and
Nationals cards that were unevenly leaning the O's way about 60/10. Now I've got to gather up some
Red Sox to send his way. I'll post the contents from that package on my TCC Blog (link below in my sig somewhere) probably sometime later Friday evening. Anyway here is all the other stuff with the main attraction at the end.
For easier reading and awesomeness I have listed everything by sport/chronological order instead of package by package.

18 Feb 2012:

So here is the trade stuff I got Thursday (16 Feb) from the SCF member who lives in Germany. (Now I've got to send a lot of
Red Sox his way). Some of them I already had some maybe had come from him the last time we traded. This list has 70/71 cards so it will be long and a bit messy maybe forgive any mistakes. As I said before there were more O's about 90% so I will only mention the team on the Nats cards.

Oh in case you were wondering YES I did eventually send him some Red Sox cards about a week later. I made a total of two trades with that guy. Both trades were the cool
"Hey I've got some Nationals cards to send you, do you have some Red Sox?" type of trade. Much easier to do than the
"My 6 GU cards are valued at over $500, but all you have is $102 worth of Base cards?" type that some people get all hung up on.
