This break is done guys. I will have a full 10 case recap of autos and main color tonight.

[Zoop]

Nothing incredibly sexy for me, but definitely plentiful! Thanks Houdini, fun break.

ALL wrappers were shipped today priority mail - they went out on today's truck as well. I took them straight to the hub at the Tampa International Airport.

They should arrive at Topps on Saturday to be picked up Monday morning.

The packages have YOUR return address and the note inside has YOUR info only. The wrappers are bundled into groups of 36 - 5 groups each for 5 Blue Wave packs.

ALL AUTOS - cases 1-10

Of all the people in the world, Travis Snider and Joe Morgan? I'll never understand women.

I know, right?

She should use that perpetual true random making machine that she sent me to pick one and stick with it!

Just think of all the time a machine like that will save you. I believe her goal is to develop a website that could do randoms but she's been working like 22 hours per day on pulledsuperfractors.com or something silly like that.

Oh my god I am only reading these comments. Now I have to watch the video...

When do you think the cards will be shipped? I can't wait to find out what my player got me.

Haha, that is crazy talk.

New updates:

1. We hit 3 prospect variations. Bobby Bundy x2 and matt Dean. Not sure what the odds are so I do not know if that is good or not.

2. This break is completely done sorting. I paid Jaime to help Friday - Sunday and Jenn sorted all weekend too. The 2nd break is almost done as well.







EDIT: Based on odds, we should have hit 4.547 variations.

Wrapper update by Topps:

Topps Company ‏@toppscards Blue Wave Wrapper Update- We have over 5K wrapper redemption requests in house, we expect by Wednesday will run out, plan accordingl...

Also, see the screen capture to see just how clueless Chris Olds really is!

[houdini]

UPDATE:

1. All 20 cases are completely sorted. It took 3 of us working 4+ days.
2. Packing and shipping starts tomorrow... it will take longer than 1 day.
3. We hit 7 prospect variations in the second 10 cases (and 10 in all 20 cases).
4. There might be a surprise card or two in your package - just a small thanks for joining!

[houdini]

AS OF RIGHT NOW - please no more b/s/t.

All previous transactions are fine and will be adjusted before I start packing your spots.

Yes sir.

[houdini]

UPDATE:

Every package shipped yesterday or today... except theacox, zoop, uberfatty, trouts2, and tgittings.

My post office is actually open tomorrow, so these last packages will all ship tomorrow (except tgitttings unless I get his address in time). They are all packed and the first 4 have their labels printed.

I just fought all night with a re-useable DK2205 printer cartridge... only to find out that the eBay seller actually superglued a re-useable cartridge. I cannot tell you how frustrating these last few hours have been. (Details: eBay seller deltadiscout7 - for anyone with a Brother 700 Thermal Printer )

Bottomline - everything is done! You will be receiving your packages this week (probably tuesday/wednesday/thursday).

Yay! He was so proud of that card. It took him about 6 hours to make it. (And another 6 hours to sign them all.) He used a "baseball card" from when he was in little league. I laughed SO hard when I saw it that I had to make more.

Unfortunately, he also decided to cut them himself too. Apparently 2.5x3.5 was just a rough guesstimate....

Not every package got the card. They were pretty random as I only had so many. Most every package got something... but there was an extra logo on the back so I didn't send them in every box so as not too offend anyone. Also, some packages I just forgot... and a few were packed just before the cards arrived (A usernames).
