Not quite sure why 2018 everything won? No vintage?
It was awards for best product of the year.

I contacted Pete on Sept. 10th, by the 12th we had definite preliminary discussions about the quantity being huge as we discussed shipping and costs. Later on the 12th I sent the initial offer. We countered each other and on the Sept. 16th we agreed to the deal. Pete had already started pulling and he mailed first on the 17th and I mailed the next day on the 18th. We closed out the deal officially on Oct. 20th, but only because I have been traveling back and forth between Texas and NJ and hadn't had a chance to confirm the cards.
The fact of the matter is that I still have 2/3 of what I received from Pete and others since October waiting to be filed in their appropriate places. So, the pulling wasn't an issue for me, it's the filing that has become difficult to complete.
Still I'd do it again if I get the chance.

Congrats to all of the winners and runner-ups! I was happy to see my name in there a couple of times. Nice to double my awards in one year. I'm happy to see that Dan got MOTY. He totally deserved that and is well on his way to repeating in 2019.

great.. congrats to all, and some repeats and familar names too- which is awesome because it shows consistancy and not just a "let me get into this" and then drop off after a year or so... sooo moving forward... if the site stays around for 20yrs, will there be a Hall of Fame wall for it's contributors???

Congrats to the winners. I hope to be mentioned in some of those categories next year, but I'm happy for all the winners. I think I even voted for a lot of them. I like how the categories varies, so if you aren't strong in contributing in something like adding or fixing stuff to the site, you can still be considered for one of your lists, or trading. I think this next year will be a big one for the site.

Royal Card Review is my blog if you feel like checking it out, thanks if you do!- royalcardreview.blogspot.com/ In the process of updating my collection so don't trust any of my lists right now.

Congrats everybody. Especially Ranfordfan, for that picture!

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.

Wow I win for the T-shirt, I dont even recall that as a catagory. Not sure why Chuck didnt use THAT picture for my insert!!!! Thanks for the shout out David. Feels good to be runner up to Billy, I would have never considered myself even in the running. Billy ever seen the movie with Sandra Bullock and William Shatner?? Sorry I had to ............ hahahahaha. I will admit I voted for the curling thread but the winner is well deserved. And finally to Dan, kudos on the great work bud, enjoy the allocades and the cash prize that comes with. =)
UPDATE :
I have been informed there is NO cash prize just a fuzzy feeling. Sorry I'm sure Billy said he got a cool grand with his but whatever. ;)
I kid I kid!! =D

Umm...I don't think it was the t-shirt that won it for you, Darrell!
