Here too!

You'd think there'd be at least a cheat-cheat list of country abbreviations they could reference. My husband went to the Post Office to ship some cards to NSW for me and the person working there said there's no such country and that it was addressed incorrectly. She tried telling him it was in the UK (!) after which he told her NSW = New South Wales, AUSTRALIA.

EriktheArchitectSURPRISE! SURPRISE! SURPRISE!
Got a knock on the door tonight and there was the friendly UPS man with a box for me.

Funny I did not remember ordering anything lately

and when I opened it - there it was -
The Eurowolfie Treasure Chest
A box full of neat cards. Lots of Promos and Chase cards, Several autographs and a couple of neat sketch cards that will continue on their way as I am not a collector of Autographs or Sketch's.
Snatched out 5 promos and older chases that I didn't have and added 10 cards to the mix!
The box will soon be on its way to ???????
Enjoy.

I had a internet-promo once via United Arab Emirates although my self addressed envelope clearly said United Kingdom

- Glad to see the boxes are moving well

BoldlygoneI got a BIG surprise this morning.
An unexpected Parcel, a LARGE unexpected Parcel.
A MYSTERY BOX!

many thanks for passing it onto me Patdata.
This is the 1st time I've held a Mystery box. It's much bigger than I thought it would be.
I found a letter and from the list of previous lucky recipients it would appear to be the The Lamont Configuration Box.
Who is Lamont and what did he configure???
I am going to enjoy looking through this.

tsmeltzerBoldly,
The Lamont Configuration (should be "Lament" after chatting with Clive Barker) is the box from Hellraiser that calls forth the cenobytes.
In any case, I hope that you thoroughly enjoy going through all the cards!
Congratulations

WendiI will be offline for a while. My father passed away suddenly on March 16th. I have taken a family leave for a month from my day job to assist my mother, sorting through everything and selling her home.
