When making blind trades over the internet, sometimes you can end up getting less in return, and sometimes you get more. While this wasn’t a blind trade, Joe from over at The Sandlot definitely sent me over-and-above what I have (so far) sent to him. Joe staged a shotgun multi-box break, and I was lucky enough to snag the Twins team slot.
Besides all the cards from the break (a good portion of which I needed), Joe rousted up several junk wax Twins and some really nice stuff, including the minor league Radke card below.
clockwise, from top left: 1998 Upper Deck SPx #204 Eric Milton [1047/2500]; 1994 Classic Minors #88 Brad Radke; 2006 Fleer #357 Brad Radke; 2003 Topps Chrome Refractor #270 Brad Radke [486/699]
The wantlists for Bowman, Fleer, Upper Deck, and Topps all took beating. The Radke refractor was a nice hit, too.
clockwise, from top left: 2006 Upper Deck Amazing Greats #AG-JS Johan Santana; 2000 Pacific Copper #249 Matt Lawton [58/99]; 2005 Fleer Classic Clippings #46 Torri Hunter; 2006 Bowman Heritage Prospects mini variation #BHP87 Chris Parmelee
Thanks for the fun ride, Joe! I hope I can return the favor someday.
