So tomorrow's my birthday and I just got a birthday package in the mail from my little sis. Every year she asks what I want and I just tell her a few packs of cards so that's what I got. Before I get to the packs, though, I got a letter from Upper Deck with a few redemptions:

Just wanted to get them out of the way so as not to be anticlimactic. Anyways, I think I've written about her before on here but my sister has a knack for picking the good packs. I don't know how she does it. She's pulled me some pretty good stuff before but this tops everything. And I've been on a roll lately.
1 pack 12/13 Black Diamond: All base
1 pack 12/13 SPA:

Artus Irbe Complete Jersey Silver /9 WOWOWOWOW!!!!!
Who needs to pack search when you got a sis with X-ray vision, eh? No idea what I'm going to do with it yet. I'm open to offers. I know there's a couple really hardcore Irbe collectors out there who would love to give it a good home but right now I just like to gaze at it haha. It's beautiful. Now I see why people like ITG so much!
