I completed a trade with another member this weekend and no the postal system did not mess this one up. Met Mike67 in Peterborough to exchange cards. This is the second time I have met Mike, the last time about 3 years ago.

Oh and yes, I am still waiting for the PWE that is MIA now for over 3 weeks.

Old school trading. Awesome!! ------------------------------- I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

Just done that once, and enjoyed it. I wish I'd known you were trading with Mike, Bru, I'd have had you deliver a message for me - I've been looking at his matches lately (and yours, but that's a weekly thing for me).

Did you use a bubble mailer? ------------------------------- Happy Trading!

They were packaged safely so that no machine could tear the packages open, bend them, or withstand the running over of them with a postal delivery vehicle. All cards arrived safe and sound.
