A Philly fan comes through

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I've ran across so many generous guys and gals through this blog.  Early last year the activity on my blog dropped off.  So much so I would be surprised if many of my fellow bloggers dropped me off their blogroll.  That said I received a package in the mail from a Philly fan.  I don't care what kind of rap Philadelphia fans get, Richard of Dawgbones, A Phillies Phan gracious sent me a bubble mailer full of goodies.

I got 4 cards to cross off my 2013 Topps Gypsy Queen want list, a pack of Transformers 3D cards and a Tim Hudson Bowman International card I didn't have.

I had no idea this package was coming to me and inside his hand written note said that a return package wasn't necessary.  Since I haven't been buying much I don't have anything to send right now, but I like to return the favor when I can.  Thank you, I really appreciate the thought and the cards!

Retail 2013 Topp Gypsy Queen has been pretty good to me

I haven't had the chance to buy a lot of the new 2013 Gypsy Queen, but I have grabbed a few jumbo/rack packs from retail and I think I've done OK thus far.  Sadly I haven't pulled many Braves cards, so I'm hping to trade these for something Braves oriented.

These jumbo relics or their odds weren't listed on the packs, but wow do they look nice. I'm searching for the Brandon Beachy and Tim Hudson from the set.

Manny Machado #30/50
Everyone loves minis, including myself.  I don't know much about this Machado kid, but I hear he's pretty good.  Hoping that means it'll be easy to trade this Sepia mini.

The Green minis don't look quite as nice as the Sepia cards, but it's a numbered mini so I figured someone out there would want this.

If anyone wants to trade just let me know.  You can find my updated want lists over the in the upper left hand corner.  I've got a lengthly GQ want list so I'm hoping someone will see these and can help me out.
