brandoclesThe mystery box
Well Gee STAR,and anybody else, If you take a insert from the box ,one would think,you would put one back in to make up for the one you took,,,wouldn't think that would be to hard to figure out,not trying to be a *** here but come on,

wolfieHi Mike
There is no list. It is purely upto the person who has the box to randomly decide who to post it to next.

Neilwhat about card talkers that might not have tons of spare chase cards??
wouldnt it be mre feesable (?) for them to replace cards with base? otherwise they might aswell send it straight on? if the whole thing is about chase cards? i just thought the box was a mystery

so anything goes?

Thanks for the info, hope in time it makes here. Think this is a great idea and hats off to the one who came up with it

brandoclesWell Neil,this is just my opion,if you only have a few inserts to replace the one's you took,then thats all you should take,to be fair for the other cardtalker's who have not had the pleasure of getting the box,i myself would never take a $5.00 dollar insert and replace it with a 10 cent single,i just think thats not fair,,but thats just me,try to treat people with respect,and fairness,and not be greeded,thats just want i think is the right thing to do

barobeherelets all calm down people!
If you get the box, take what you need and replace it with whatever you can!
No need to get hostile about it.
This is a fun thing, not a serious thing!
October 17, 2004, 12:43 AM
brandoclesNobodys getting hostile in here,it just that,if you were to send me a $10.00 insert i needed,and you were expecting a insert of the same amount back,but i chose to send you one common card,i think you would be a bit bumed out,im just trying to look out for the people getting the box,because i dont expect to get it myself,so im not to worried for myself whats in the box,,,thats what i have to say,hate me or like me up to you,brandocles

DoctorChristmasJonesWhen you get the box, you'll know what to do.
The aura of the mystery box has a magical effect.

Neillol real oz hehe
I see what you mean brandocles, i just didnt explain it properly i dont think.
I dont mean take out an auto card and put in a promo type of thing i mean, say if someone had tons of promos, base sets, etc etc and really needed say an auto, then instead of them missing out they could put in various base sets etc to counter the 'value'

of the card.
As they would be payign for shipping.
Think i explained it properly this time

and yes send it back to solo

Mister E.It's been a mystery, and then I finally see... No card box yet. Mister E., is still awaiting... Maybe if you all send cards now you will beat the x-mas rush???

SarahWell I'm a happy camper this morning.
Box A arrived in Real OZ (Melbourne, Australia) when the post man delivered it to my door this morning at 7.00 am.
Thank you very much to Dr Christmas Jones who was kind enough to think of sending it to me. You put a huge smile on my face

I haven't had time to look at the contents as I had to go to work this morning, but I will be having a squizz after work and be sending it on its merry way in a couple of days.

BuffyAngelFanHiya everyone
I received Box B this morning, thanks Buffy

Although it was exciting to receive and look through there wasn't really anything of personal interest to me. I actually had more fun looking through Box A as that had a lot of pieceworks and auto cards that I hadn't seen before and it was nice to see what the top bonus cards from other sets are like. There seemed to be a lot more base cards in Box B than there was in Box A
Box B will be on its travels again on Monday
Thanks again Buffy
-Claire

Chris ByrneWell done!
I wonder who the next lucky person will be?
Maybe it will go from the UK, across the big wet thing!
We shall have to wait and see.
Thanks -- Chris
