Trade with Ross from Sports Card Info

When you have a chance, if you haven't already, read Sports Card Info. What started out as a site talking about fake sports cards (I have to add I think because it moved from one Blogging provider to another), developed very quickly into an informative and interesting site about card collecting. Ross (and Andrew) bust some serious product, all top of the range cards like Sterling, Sweet Spot, Triple Threads and Exquisite. I contacted Ross to see the likelihood of a trade. He collected Phillies cards, unfortunately I had already pretty much earmarked all my Phillies for Cliff from Capewood's Collections. Cliff also collects Astro's, so I send a pile of Phillies to Ross and to make me feel better a pile of Astro's to Cliff.

Yesterday a package arrived from Selinsgrove ,Pennsylvania and what a selection of Red Sox cards Ross and Andrew sent.
