Trade with Spoke Bait

A long, long time ago.  I made a trade with theHitKing over at “Spoke Bait and the Game”.  Don’t let the length of time that it took me to post this tell you I didn’t like it.  I scanned a long time ago and they got put in my Tumblr file instead of my MSO folder.  I just ran across them so I got it together.

All these are new to the White Sox Collection.  An 80’s stack, a 90’s stack, and a 00’s stack.  All greatly appreciated because they bring me closer to team sets being finished.

Some 2012 Opening Day, which I had none of.  I don’t know if I would call Alex Rios a Superstar for the Superstar Celebrations.  This year maybe, definitely not last year.

I had gotten in a Topps Heritage break and but didn’t get any of these that he sent.  I did get a Konerko in the group break but I still needed one for the White Sox Collection.  The rookie stars features our closer right now who is doing a great job.

And of course, theHitKing sent me a few Konerko’s for my Paul Konerko Collection.  I have no idea how I didn’t have the toppstown but I didn’t.  Now that I’m going through the scans, I’m wondering if this wasn’t a trade package, but extra cards from playing a contest on his site about watching the Reds games.  Because I found this scan as well.

I think I won a pack of 2012’s from him.  I gave all these to my son as he is just getting into collecting.

A great package from “Spoke Bait and the Game”.  If I owe you something, let me know because I don’t remember. 

Hit him up for a trade but beware, he can be a little delusional.  This was wrote on my package.

Although they may be in the mix this year, which I’m glad to see.  I always had a soft spot for the Reds.  Probably because of Tom Seaver.  I even remember having a Reds hat as a kid.

The Hit King with a Perfect Game

“TheHitKing” from “Spoke Bait and the Game” had posted a comment on one of my Cheap Ebay Pick-ups page where I had stated how much my max bids are and said he had just listed a card I might want and set a price if I wanted it.  I jumped on it, here it is.

I couldn’t pass that up at that price. Mark Buehrle relic, Allen & Ginter.  I never find his relics for that price on Ebay.  And being the great guy he is, he also through some extra Sox for me.

All these are new to the Sox collection.  I thought I had the Buehrle Heritage but apparently not.  A lot of people are down on Dunn, I look at it as a horrible year, and I think he’ll bounce back.  He’s already looking better in spring training.  So I liked getting the 3 Dunn cards.  And you can never go wrong with one the “Good Guys” in baseball, Jim Thome.
