The Seven Spoils of War (Trading with JBF)

This is some crazy stuff.

Last week I was feeling pretty good about myself after hitting Wes with a bunch of autos and relics as part of our ongoing trade battle. It is always exciting to find a card that fits someones collection perfectly.

Well, a few days later I received an email from Wes saying that he is pretty excited about something he sent me. This is coming from a guy who sent me a game used bat, so I had to expect anything. On Friday a big box arrived.

I'll let the pictures do most of the talking.

First a note from Mr. Jaybarker.....

Oh my......

When I opened to huge priority mail box I noticed a full sketch pad at the bottom. Look what appeared on the first page. This was just the tip of the iceberg.

A whole set of war stamps. When Wes means war, he really means it.

Now the graded portion of the trade package.

 The Traynor was my favorite.

 This Geno patch is /10!!!! A great looking card.

 Wes knows all my collecting habits. Sims is a WVU alum.

 Sexy relic

 A beautiful on card auto of Jock Sanders.

The big priority box had another box within it. This 500ct box is stuffed full of Pirate/Steelers/WVU. These will make good posting subjects down the road.

Probably thinking holy crap that was a ton of stuff.....not done yet.

Wes has already blown me up to pieces with this trade and he decides to throw a Clemente on top of it. Thank God the barrage is over.............. or is it.

This is a game used jersey of former All Star reliever Evan Meek.  I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this in the box.

How am I supposed to respond to this? Wes has totally killed my trade momentum. I could duck and hide, but since he is promising 7 spoils of war I might as well go down with a fight. The fight must go on

I need a montage.
