I don't like chrome, I just don't. I suppose one reason is that since I get a lot of autographs, sharpies usually bubble and signatures dont show up well. I know that there are tricks to get round this, but why bother. Another reason is I'm more of a traditionalist, I like the old cardboard, plain and simple.
So how did this come about? Since I work in aerospace, I usually get the week between Christmas and New Years as holiday time. I like that. I get plenty of nights to stay up late and go through 5000 count boxes of cards. As I was going through one the other night, every time I came across a chrome card a bad word would come across my mind, I started seeing a pattern...chrome makes me mad.
I will however admit that there are a few exceptions to the no chrome rule: I keep any Angels cards, and, there have been a few that I have been partial to and have kept those:
The rest go into the giveaway pile. There will be more to come at a later date, but here's what I've pulled so far. Please dont ask for a listing, if you dig chrome it shouldn't matter anyhow.
If you would like a random assortment of chrome, post a comment as such and email your address. If you would like to send me anything Angels in return (oddball or inserts only) I would happily accept, but it's not necessary.
I'll send a random assortment to the first five to comment, but you can tell me if you want a specific team.
Oh and please don't take them just to take them, if you're not a "Chrome Guy".
I'd dig some Rays Chrome if you'll send it my way!
ReplyDeleteI'll drop you an email.

I know you just sent me some cards, but I think I've made it known that I love shiny! Anything that you want to send would be repayed in Angels.
ReplyDeleteD'oh---what's your email address?
ReplyDeleteI'd be interested in Twins cards, and no one has hit me up for Angels yet, so I'm sure I can get you a good return mailing.
ReplyDeleteSorry. Email me at tessierthomas(at)yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteI'd take the Mets off your hands, and if not, the Yankees.
