I know it's a little late, but with responsibilities and all, I just haven't had time to make a template and card for my annual tradition of making a card celebrating the Yankee$ getting eliminated from either the playoffs or playoff contention. This year, they cut it waaaaay too close. There were only 2 possible games left!!! I guess that’s what happens when you play weak AL Central teams in the playoffs. Fortunately, the Yankees lack of pitching caught up with them, and their hitters had to face decent pitching in the playoffs. I’m hoping that the Tigers can get a few nice arms for 2025 and the whole team can build on their surprising 2024. As for the Rays, even without the stadium issues, I would be surprised if they could contend. They just don’t have the hitting. Or owner willing to spend.
I finished putting my loose Phillies cards into binders today, but that will probably be as far as I get before Karens surgery. I also worked on some 2001 Topps Rays customs today, and I’m sure I’ll make some more during our stay in Jacksonville. Maybe I’ll even get this blog back to a 75/25 split of real cards/customs again.
Before I sign off, I have a SportLots question. For those of you that have ordered box shipping before, is there an exact formula to calculating the box shipping per 100 cards that are in the box? I have about 400 cards waiting in my box, and about 100 bucks in PayPal left. I want to purchase some more Topps cards to finish some sets, and I want to know how much I can spend on the cards, minus the shipping to get them to the box, and then the shipping from the box to me. The shipping to the box is calculates, so I just need to figure out if there is a way to calculate it per 100 cards or if that isn’t how it works. Thanks for any advice.
Thanks for taking the time to check out my latest post.
