In hindsight, this was probably a foolish trade. I've decided not to go forward attempting to complete either of these sets.
I do wish I could make up my mind. One day I make up my mind that I want to be 90% vintage. Then a few weeks later, "a little more new stuff won't hurt." A few weeks later I realize that I could have picked up some great vintage card with what I spent on the modern and I'm back to square one. The struggle is most definitely real.
If you shop online and haven't signed up and used ebates yet, you're missing out. I also use it on eBay to get money back from purchases there. Between referrals and cash back, I've gotten over $150 in a year. FREE CARDS!
If you're on Twitter, please give me a follow. You can also find me on Trading Card Database. I love trading cards, when it makes sense. Happy collecting!
I know of your struggle all too well!
ReplyDeleteThe post office's pricing is way too complicated and I think sometimes arbitrary.
ReplyDeleteI did a trade with him as well and had postage due. I think his problem is that the bubble wrap makes the PWE too thick, thus needing parcel rate postage
ReplyDeleteI believe the same thing. What kills me though is that it should cost more than $3 to ship what he shipped. It's highway robbery.
