Free stuff on the blogs, once rampant, has slowed to a trickle. Lots of reasons for that, I suppose. Most of all, these things are cyclical, but other reasons could include diminishing inventory for giveaways, postage costs and even 'free stuff fatigue'.
For me, it has been the work required to get all the cards out the door. Gotta match up the claimer with the claimed cards, package the cards, address the envelopes and so on. Doesn't sound that tough, right. And it isn't, but after 21 Diamond Nine giveaways, I ran out of steam on it. Not forever though!
So yesterday, there were at least three free card giveaways on the blogs I read. It was nice to see, and I even claimed some stuff from two of them. And that got me thinking that I should probably get back on the horse! Not as often as in the past, but I think I can do a little.
Which brings us to today's cards...
No duplicates can be picked by the same person, let someone else have the other one! The bottoms of both scans are cut off a bit, but the whole cards exist, I promise.
If you can't tell who that is on the bottom left, it is Dansby Swanson...
Stanton and Tatis please. Or just Stanton if there's a one-card limit. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteNope, they are both yours!
DeleteI wouldn't mind that Bo, I don't think I've ever seen it before.
ReplyDeleteDone deal!
DeleteI'd like one of the roberts cards please and thanks. Have the mcgwire cards arrived yet? I'll see what else I can find for you.
ReplyDeleteCool, its yours. And you reminded me to go check the mail, and yes! The cards came! Thanks, they look great. Did your stuff get there yet? I sent them over a week ago, hopefully they made it.
DeleteYes got them Thursday. Thanks!
DeleteI would be interested in the Jim Thome in the first picture and one of the Tatis cards in the second one. Please.
ReplyDeleteYup yup.
DeleteI would gladly take Niekro and a Robert off your hands. Thanks DK!
ReplyDeleteYou are most welcome!
DeleteNomar and Seaver please. ... Working on some cards for you. Our collections don't exactly match up.
ReplyDeleteThey're yours! No need for anything in return, but of course I will always delight in mail days. And what do you mean, I love Dodgers and vintage! Wish I had more to send your way.
DeleteIf available Mantle & a Tatis jr.
ReplyDeleteI think both Tatis cards were claimed......
DeleteI would take the other robert! thanks
ReplyDeletethought I saw both were claimed.....
DeleteYes, sorry, the 2nd Robert was already claimed. I'll see if I can get more someday!
DeleteMore free cards? When it rains... it pours.
ReplyDeleteA little late to the party, I would love the Eloy and Swanson if they haven’t been claimed!
