I was going to do just the Angels, but when I noticed the Cardinals only had 4 cards, I figured I’d throw them on here as well.

• Average price per card – $0.20
• Cards left to post – 505 (including NNO Checklists)
• Percentage posted – 169/684 (25% posted)
• Percentage completed – 314/684 (46% completed)

Price per card went up another penny for the second post in a row.  First time it has been over $.20.  Percentage posted went up 2%.
