I have been traveling a lot for work as of late. I always say I am going to sit down in my hotel room and spit out a blog post, but then I just end up putting my feet up and ordering a dirty movie.
I haven't sent out a TTM request in a very long time, yet I've gotten a few responses back recently. They have gone to my old address and had to be forwarded to my new one, so the poor card goes through a bit more than it needs to.
I was really excited to get back a success from Wade Boggs. I saw a lot of people have success from him no-fee or for $5. I sent this card without any money, and was thrilled to see it come back. I've tried him a few other times without success, so adding this legendary player and HOFer to my collection is a special thing. I love that it's on a 1993 Upper Deck as well.
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.

Nice Success! I might send him a TTM just to see what happens. BTW, 1993 Upper Deck was the best UD set ever IMO.
