    Haven’t been able to watch much but hopefully you’re doing better than me. I saw a #d Carnell Tate and that’s been it. I did see that Nico acropolis which was sweet.

    Anyone else having massive issues with usps lately? I've had two cards say delivered that weren't. Have cards out weeks. Have cards that don't update in forever. My mail didn't even come yesterday. I have a friend who lives 3 hours away who buys cards too with similar issues (he hasnt got mail in 2 days and has multiple items tracked as delivered that were not)

    And then today was supposed to get 3 cards, two of them I got this notification on
    Screenshot_20250110_194149_Chrome.jpg

    And the third i got this
    Screenshot_20250110_194438_Chrome.jpg

    So the snow was so bad they couldn't deliver two of my cards but were able to get one in the mailbox?

    Were they sent Ground Advantage or eBay Standard? eBay Standard is a crap shoot sometimes.

    Ebay standard are the two marked delivered that I haven't got yet.

    I'm confused how usps though can reach my mailbox for one card and not two more. I think that's the most perplexing part

    I've had cards shipped by eBay Standard get marked as delivered arrive the following day. Had the same thing happen with several buyers as well. A lot of post offices have issues with them for whatever reason. I've thought about not even offering it as an option on my listings.

    Not sure I've ever plugged them in this thread before, but superior fit sleeves are incredible and a million times better than team bags

    Anyone here ever mail cards to players to get signed? By son has gotten really into baseball and loves the orioles. He’s currently writing letters to like 8 players and is going to send them a card in each letter to hopefully have them sign.

    I’ve tried to prep him that he may never see those cards again.

    I did as a kid and got some stuff back. Got a Tom Brady that I've always wondered if it was authentic or not. It was sent back with a little postcard thanking me for the support that I still have somewhere. It was like his 2nd or 3rd season I got it, before he really blew up.

    Also quite possibly the most expensive card I own now is a signed Henrik Zetterberg YG. The YG alone unsigned i think was so short printed it sells for $500+ now. But his agent used to accept cards for Zetterberg to sign, yet he didn't keep track of which card was sent from which envelope, he'd open up them all, hand Zetterberg a stack in his office and sign them all and then just stick them back in envelopes to send out. I sent him some cheap card as a kid and got the YG back signed. Some dude out there had to be super pissed to get back my base card.

    just got an email from PSA raising rates again

    maybe I wouldn't feel as negatively about it if my last order didn't take a full month just for them to mark it as received

    So I called Topps last week after my boxes had been stuck in Memphis for five days. They told me it had to get to “10 days of no movement with the carrier” before they can take the next steps. So I had to call them back yesterday which was the 10 day mark. They asked if I wanted a refund or other boxes. They were totally sold out of the Bowman Best and I didn’t want more of the Chrome….so they did a refund which came through on my card this morning.

    Earlier today the boxes were delivered. The FedEx tracking still shows them in Memphis. Very weird.

    Rest of the boxes were just okay. Luther Burden and Tez Johnson patch autos, Igbinosun gold auto /50, Aidan Chiles pink auto /100, Malachi Nelson auto + two or three #d refractors. Also got an unfortunate dual auto.
