Recent mail has been great for the PC. Start things off with some random cards I picked up
Picked this bad boy up for my bro's Piston collection
NOW for some PC stuff. Since it's getting really hard to add to the Bass collection, I decided to start grabbing some cards of a few rooks from last year. Rodney Stuckey, Marco Belinelli and Nick Young
Picked this Gu up
then I had to pick up his bro as well
I don't know how many of you fellas have picked up some of this season's Finest, but on first look I hated em
In hand however, these are sweet looking cards. Love the silver border around the player...... really sets it off.
I was lucky enough to pick this up too
First 1/1 of Young, so pretty happy.
next card is a sexy mofo.....lol
Can't really go wrong with this card. I'm a Warriors fan, and I have wanted to pick up an Oden for a while.
Been trying to pick this next card up for awhile, but for one reason or another it keeps alluding me. Finally picked it up
So you've seen my mail and thought......yeah pretty decent mail.....but whatever, well this is where it gets interesting......
About a month ago I was sitting at the computer, wondering how I could increase my search for Bass stuff. I remembered the Japanese site r-b21 and decided to check it out. I start browsing through the Bass stuff, and low and behold I find this card I have wanted for ages. Too bad for me though, it has already sold and is not available. Man I was so bummed. Anyways I keep looking and find another card I need. Not as much as the first, but still very needed. I know some of you are familiar with a trader named jkinjp. one of the best traders online, and just so happens to reside in Japan. I pm'd him regarding the card I needed to get some help and also linked him to the one that was sold (just to have a whine). He gave me the information I needed to order, but said he had something small for me and to give him my addy. Well I knew I was getting a package and wasn't expecting anything to major. well i got a package yesterday from him and opened it. When I saw the card I about fell off my chair.
Now why am I making such a big deal over a Sage auto? (it's /10) Well jkinjp had already picked this card up when I pm'd him......HE WAS THE ONE WHO BOUGHT IT!! I had never dealt or traded with him, and what a coincidence that I pm'd him out the blue for the exact same card?!?! That was such a cool thing he did. The main reason I'm getting so pumped about it though is because
It completes another MASTERSET baby!!
Really was fun maildays, and a really cool surprise. Sorry for the long read, but experiences like these really make you feel like gold.

Great story!!! Jeff is a star, he's sent me about 3 different packages out of the blue...all I've mustered in return were a few baseball cards and a McCants auto! He's certainly one of life's good guys.
