Giving: 2006 Fleer Ultra Fine Materials Andruw Jones Jsy
2007 Bowman Prospects Cody Johnson auto

2007 Topps A&G Mini Jarrod Saltalamacchia RC

1996 Leaf Limited Rookies Andruw Jones RC

2007 Bowman Heritage Josh Hamilton RC

2007 Bowman Heritage Joba Chamberlain ("Joba Rules" on ball)

2002 Fleer Tradition Prospects Josh Hamilton

1991 Bowman Chipper Jones RC.


Overall Satisfaction: A-

Everything about this trade was great. I got Dayf 's cards 2 quickly, I got 2 cards off of My Want List, and I traded away a few Braves cards I had sitting in my trade pile. The Jones RC originally wasn't in the trade pile but I added it just for Dayf.

The Chipper RC is exciting for 3 reasons.

1. It's the only rookie of him I didn't have.

2. He's my favorite player of all time.

3. I absolutly love all the early modern Bowman products.


Both sides got some really great cards. I hope Dayf is happy with the trade. I reccomend everyone trades with him, He has lots of interesting cards for trade and likes anything Braves so you could probably work out a great trade. Click here to go to his blog.

Thorzul Trade!

This week I did a tradeTHORZUL. Giving: $1.50 and an Oscar Charleston card. Getting: 2007 Topps Heritage #2 Roger Clemens, 2007 UD Masterpieces #41 Josh Hamilton, 2007 UD Masterpieces # 53 Cal Ripken Jr., 2001 Topps american Pie #65,141,143 Ozzie Smith, John F. Kennedy, and Elvis Presley, 2007 Topps U&H #100 Abraham Nunez, 2007 Topps Allen & Ginter's Dick Perez Sketches #19 Derek Jeter 1/1! The Jeter is awsome. My 2nd 1/1 I have now. Plus Its of Derek Jeter. How awsome is that! I needed the Clemens for my set. I've always wanted some American Pie cards too. SWo many reasone these cards are awsome. The two Masterpieces cards are good. Hamilton is my favorite Reds player and one of my top 5 current player favorites. The Ripken has the picture off of the front of the packs. I got the Nunez hoping it might be the Ellsbury version. I diidn't have high hopes but the Nunez is cool too. I really like the picture of him on the card. He's right in the middle of throwing a sidearm throw to first.
