Huge thank you to Alhill37 for the twelve 2006-07 Parkhurst cards he mailed to me. Always nice to receive something when you are having a hard time in life at the moment. Thank you kind sir for your thoughtfulness.

Props to Mr. Yankee Prize Redemption not for the 1975 Great Plains Greats set as that was the deal, but even though I was already benefitting much more than he, jayoneil added two extras from my Want List on top of returning the redemption card to me. Thanks, Jay, and may you be blessed beyond the kindness you've shown.

A big "Thank you" to frump for a completely unexpected package that included 18 Ed Belfour's for my PC. Not the first time frump has PIF'd me. Thank you very much!

Two from me today: Joshua mentioned the Yankee Trader Redemption above. I was holding off, because I didn't want to spoil any surprises, but Jay not only sent me the 1990 Fleer box, but also the Redemption card back and a bonus Josh Hamilton Reds card. Thank you sir!

My second one is for ranfordfan. In exchange for me purchasing and mailing a Ranford AU/MEM card from eBay, Darrell completely blew me away, as a 2018 Topps Chrome autograph of Reds pitcher Jackson Stephens was awaiting in my mailbox after work today. Thank you my friend!

I'll never quit collecting entirely, but I am downsizing. Check out my COMC store and help me thin out what I don't want so I can buy cards that I do want. See something you like? Send me a message on here, and we can knock the price down quite a bit. I'll even take a bit of a loss if it means getting you a card you really want.

“It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops. Today, October 2, a Sunday of rain and broken branches and leaf-clogged drains and slick streets, it stopped and summer was gone.”
