Announcements
12/30 - Last packages should be going out Monday. There are postal delays but no cause for serious concern...yet. Thanks for your patience!
12/19 - Presents are already rolling in (yikes!) as you can see from the Secret Santa Showoff Thread II (link).
12/9 - Santas, check your inboxes. Btw, is it me or is Beckett so slow to load, it's almost impossible to use? Anywho, check'em if you can.
12/8 - PMs are being sent to all participants.
12/7 - Barring objection, I'm making December 31 the new shipping deadline to give us more time to find something nice for the holidays.
12/5 - Know someone who deserves a gift?...Well sign her up! Spot a trader needing an endorsement?...Then put in a good word for him!
12/4 - We're halfway there to last year's 25 Santas. Odds we top that on shorter notice, later in the game, with lower site traffic?

I sent in an PM...I feel discriminated against.........

Do I too need an endorsement? I wish I knew someone on these boards that may be willing to possibly endorse me for this special event......

I guess you must not've gotten the memo bout no Pens fans allowed then.

(Lol, oops...fixed.)

[phildo37]

submitted my info... this should be fun

I would've put 90's inserts/parallels on my wishlist... but... so tough to find people that have cards I need. Whoever gets me.. if you have 90's stuff, I can send a wantlist.. and maybe use a go-between (e-mails through Al or Randi - sorry to volunteer you guys) so I don't know who has me

[pens fan addict]

Id help you as well phil......

If you get me phil you can just send me one of those worthless pens gamers you have!!! Lol!

[gmccarth]

Count me in, please, and thanks for taking this on! My favorite things mostly have something to do with Nicklas Backstrom, Dany Heatley, Jason Spezza, Johan Franzen, or anything Red Wing.
Happy holidays!
