A Pair of Zistle Swaps

Recently I completed another pair of trades courtesy of Zistle.  In the first exchange, I received a nice chunk of 2015 Topps from olerud363.  I didn't realize until after accepting the trade that he lives up in Canada, so this one cost me about $7 at the post office.

In return I got 20+ base cards, which puts me at somewhere around 90 left to go to complete the set, until Series 2 comes out...

I'll be relying on trades from this point on as far as this set goes.

My favorite photograph of the bunch was this horizontal Longoria/blatant ad for GEICO.

There were a few other cards accompanying the 2015 Topps base in the bubble mailer...

...including one of the few inserts I was actually interested in, the Nolan Ryan Archetypes.

A new 2014 Topps Heritage.

A trio of 2013 Gypsy Queen Sox...



...and a pair of 1991 Classic II cards...

...with this one fitting both my Nolan Ryan and Boston Red Sox collections.

The other trade was with BucCollector, whom I've traded with once before.  This awesome Roberto Clemente puts me another card closer to finishing the 2008 Upper Deck Baseball Heroes set.

This package also resulted in a pair of new cards from 1987 Donruss Highlights.  One for my Red Sox collection...

...and one for my Nolan Ryan collection.

Another Red Sox need from the many small boxed sets released in the late '80s.

Finally, a 2008 Upper Deck First Edition card.

Nothing Earth-shattering here, but some cards I didn't want left my house and in return I got some cards I actually did want.  Nice and simple, as every exchange I've had on Zistle so far has been...

At least Geico has some funny commercials.

I just sent you a swap offer on Zistle... another potential 26 off of your list.
Let me know if you're interested.
