Secret Santa Sign up and Dates

[Rich Klein]

And we'll use this as our go to page to ensure everyone who signs up (I missed one last year) will get something for the holidays

You can either post here or DM me if you want to be in. The amount you spend it totally up to you as the saying goes it's the thought that counts as much as the $$$. I will need you to DM me or email me at Sabrgeek@aol.com with your address and interest (s) so to make sure you will get something.

Dates:

Let's do signups through Wednesday November 27th. I'll do the randomizer on that day or a day or so later. That gives everyone a couple of weeks to chase down gifts for their person.

Let's set the deadline for purchasing on Wednesday December 11th. That gives you 2 weeks or so to find item (s)

And gifts should be in the intended hand by Tuesday December 24th and on or around 6 PM EST we can start opening and showing what we all got

Signup Deadline: Wednesday November 27

Gift Purchase Deadline: Wednesday December 11

Gift Receive Deadline: Tuesday December 24

I'm ready! Are you?

Wanted to get this back up to the top. A lot of fun here gents. A recent Xmas, I let Rich know I was building a T206 set, my Secret Santa hooked me up with these!!!

[Rich Klein]

Bumping this up.

Looking forward to starting the next part this week.

As an aside, in the new card world, my most local LCS is part of a double digit store group that does Secret Santa (mostly newer unopened) but they have a great party every year. I'm doing that for the 3rd straight year and it's always fun to hang out with card collectors old and new

Just a reminder to sign up for this fun little gift exchange...I have really enjoyed it since this became a thing many a Christmas moon ago.

Don't be a Grinch, give the gift of cards that will brighten the Christmas tree undercarriage of some hobbyist, while your undercarriage becomes laden with the gleam that only the cards from a like-minded Net54'er can bring.

Brian (to summarize...time to brighten and shine those undercarriages by signing up to this Secret Santa gift exchange, and do so by tomorrow)

[slade15342]

Count me in. This sounds like as much fun as I could have on Christmas. Don't tell my wife! . Email with details by tomorrow. Thanks for running this.

[pawpawdiv9]

Cmon guys we can get more people than this
Let’s get this up to 20or more
It’s always fun

[bleeckerstreetcards]

Mr. Kuhr also has on his list a much more accessible grouping of cards to get. He's not that expensive to buy for.

Now. if someone wants to gift me with Lot #1 on REA I promise I will send 20 percent of all proceeds from that card to the non profit of my choice LOL

Funny but I also enjoy oddities like these
One has Paula Abdul in background
One has Drake in background
One has Mendez brother in Background
One has George Bush in Backgorund.
I also have the Billy Ripken Fuck Face Card just could not find picture
Sorry 1 did not upload

Just not part of my “collection” just part of my fun stuff

But to be transparent If someone gifted that I would humbly accept it

[Rich Klein]

One has Drake in background

Which card has Drake in the background? I will add that to the COMC data base thereof.

Checked the Data Base, both the Paul George and the Paula Abdul cards were already note.

Nah the postal people will find it and pocket it for their nefarious means

I remember the great Dan McKee post on this board to never add additional insurance to packages lest they go missing.

[bleeckerstreetcards]

Shipped priority today and have received my SS package.

[tjisonline]

That would be great and we also should ensure that gets posted here. And for those who don't want to show their faces, just showing what you received is perfectly fine as well during that chat.

And obviously posting here is always good as well
