Comin' In Hot:The Mail Day I Wasn't Sure Would Arrive

I gave my Hotmail inbox a check one day and found that Nate over at The Buc Stops Here blog had contacted me again about another awesome soon to be trade. What we didn't know, is what would pursue next.

I mailed mine out a day before he did and he received my end in a couple of days. However, the USPS showed us some love by having his end never arrive to me. I checked in on a daily basis to let Nate know it hadn't arrived and we had gotten up to more than 10 days before Nate and I both decided it wasn't going to come and Nate was going to graciously replace the lost cards. Well guess what, USPS said "hey, even though the right address is on here, let's send it back to the sender" and they did. Nate got the envelope in the mail and re-sent it back out. Once again it took a little longer than expected, but it finally came into my possession and I did the happy dance.

Both Nate and I couldn't believe I actually had it.

Well, here is the proof.

Nate has been a HUGE help in knocking down my set needs from 90's chrome. Corey Dillion was another big name I was lacking from the 1997 Topps Chrome set.

Fred Taylor was one for my 1998 Topps Chrome set which is ever so creeping towards being completed

 

Especially after adding the last big one I needed in Moss. I have had the Peyton for awhile now.

Thanks again Nate for the set help. I look forward to our next trade and hopefully it arrives a bit more peaceful.

Here are the remaining cards I need for both of those Chrome sets if you have any help for me!
