Bye Bye Bones

Today I received a package I was a little nervous sending.  It had my 10.28.1985 Sports Illustrated magazine already signed by Ozzie Smith in it.  I mailed that issue and a 11.04.1985 SI issue to Steve Balboni along with a new silver paint pen and a blue Sharpie.  I followed it as it went from one place and then was forwarded to another and I got pretty nervous but Mr Balboni came through for me.  Not only did he sign each one perfectly but he used each pen on each magazine AND returned my donation I sent.  Awesome all the way around.  Thanks Steve!

All Betts Are Off

Today I received my package from Steve S (cosmo on SCN) from the Red Sox Winterfest.  I had mailed him a few things to get signed but from everything I read, the operation of the Winterfest was a mess.  Steve did manage to get me a ML Debut ticket signed by Mookie Betts though.  We had agreed on a price and everything to get it signed but Steve said I did not have to pay.  I am sending him some cards I got signed at Twinsfest last week as thanks.

I’m Not Greedy. I Just Needed a Crede!

When I saw Joe Crede was going to be signing at the Chicago White Sox Fanfest, I had to find someone to get me the last Crede card I needed.  Donnie D (macey225 on SCN) stepped up to get the job done for me.  I probably offered too much to get it done but to have that knocked off my need list is a great feeling.  Donnie got me the 2009 Topps Heritage high numbered card signed in beautiful blue Sharpie.  His communication and fast turnaround shipping it to me was perfect!  Thanks Donnie!
