Yes! Big Grin

Seriously folks, let's do this in fun. Also, as Barobehere mentioned, once the box was split, new names were only added to each box as they were received, so getting different boxes is entirely possible as has happened.

Heck! I would not mind getting the other box, even though I received box A during its first few weeks of circulation. I anticipate the plunder again and have quite a bit of thingees to put in it.

BTW, my address has changed (just in case).

If you have NOT received either box and don't mind sharing your address, please send your name and address to: scouse691@aol.com Thumb Up

This is for people who have NOT received either of the 2 boxes.

Box B has now had it's 20,000 mile service and now contains Auto's, Costume Cards & you may even find a Sketch card in there, plus loads of other chase etc....

Please only send your details if you have NOT received either box and I will be sending it to the next lucky person on Monday ( to give everyone enough time )

I guess I'm an aluminum member as I have not received either mystery box. Wink

Maybe somebody enacted a North Idaho Exclusionary Act Regarding Card Talk's Mystery Boxes.

Then again, I haven't traded with many people so that could be it as well.

Still a great idea in my humble opinion.

Some things that have come up that I want to address. One of the boxes has grown quite large since the 100 card rule got broken on it(Which is not a problem the only reason I set it like that was to keep shipping cost low). If the shipping cost ever becomes a problem let me know. Don't know what I will do, but still.



The easiest idea IMO would be for that person who doesn't or can't spend too much on P+P to simply reduce the size of the box, leaving a decent amount of cards in there which they still think would be appropriate (i.e. don't take out all chase and promo's leaving just base cards in there)

PS: Barrett; The mystery box(es) was a superb idea (and still is), and it's going well still i reckon!!! I know i've been lucky enough to receive both boxes, and i'm sure eventuall most people on the board will have had a glimpse of either of the boxes. So all you members who haven't had peek at a box yet..... keep your fingers crossed!! I doubt the box will stop anytime soon....

Well done barrett!!!
