Well, today I received a brand new Mystery Box called "Spawn of the Mystery Box" - Thanks alot to who-shall-remain-nameless (unless they want to identify themselves) I found a number of things!! (Which I promptly replaced with something of equal or greater value) - it will be going on to the next recipient on Friday (sorry, it is staying in the States) - I will say that this person is East of the Rockies

Hey! Spidergoblin got one, so it was in Texas for a brief time......YAY Southwest!! (Although the heat we've been having lately may melt some of the cards together!!)

I went to the post office to mail it today and when I got there,I noticed that I failed to address it

I apologize for the delay.I was very happy to see it,but I had no idea how hard it would be to choose who to send it to...I had an idea of who to send it to before I actually did receive it.Then I would think,no maybe he deserves,or then,maybe she deserves it,doh!!!

It will go off tomorrow.

I must admit I stole this idea for another site I'm on

I sent out 2 mystery boxes with the help of H.I.M. only catch was they were sports/nonsports boxes..

Just a little heads up in case someone here gets one with sports cards in it.. My non sports collection isn't big enough YET to have done a complete non sports box..

And does anyone know offhand how long it usually take for something to get from the US to the UK?

If you sent it airmail i should give it 10 days but expect to hear before then.

I will let you know when it arrives.

No I sent something out to someone 3 weeks ago and it "never arrived" it was an ebay auction and buyer had 6 feedback.. I have proof I send and all but going to refund them anyway just wondering if there was a chance to show up?

Me too

Though, I like to say "borrowed" not stole

The purpose of mine is a little different.

Death of Mystery Box B.
On top of everything else, I have just received Mystery Box B(or the remains of it).

Spidergoblin sent it to me to be restocked since a lot of the cards had nicks and dents.
I mailed it on Sat. to the next receiptiant.
I just got a crushed wet box with a lot of crushed, wet cards in an official mail plastic bag. I will salvage what I can and have the new box off in a week or two.

oohh,sorry to hear about the mystery box.
But at least the next person to get it will have some nice cards.
