2nd lot- Nothing at all interesting, all the players are off the team- Pierzynski, Milton, etc.

3rd lot- Current base and Jason Kubel autograph :) Thank you Tribe

Hello Everyone....let me start by saying that the concept is great here when followed... I do have something that I would like to share.... This month I was to trade with 98Padres.... I saw that the Padres was their choice, so I immediately pulled 25+ nice Padres inserts and cards with some stars mixed in.....then comes a note saying that they want either new 2010 Padres or Tejada.... I do not have any 2010 cards except what I have traded for... So I then went and pulled 25 Tejada's and went and amended the trade agreement... It was then rejected and I got the following PM.....

"I am sorry, I just don't need anymore, crappy 2007 topps padres cards. I dont abide by the norms because the norms suck. I am sorry, that we couldn't trade. I have been in the group since it started in January and I think most of the People if not all the people who I have traded with have loved me because I send a lot more then the required 25 and I send good cards. I am sorry, I just don't want to waste my time on bull trades where I get nothing I need.

P.S. When I signed up for the Group I did so with the knowledge that it was for two trades a month not three. I am sorry, you are just the odd man out."

Never did I state that I was offering crappy 2007 Padres, I had pulled 25+ Tejada cards that were stated as OK. Then I am told that they do not comply by the norms because they "suck"??? So now I have pulled 2 different lots trying to comply and since I am considered "the odd man out" because I more than went out of my way to meet their request.... To tell me that everyone loves trading with them means nothing to me when my trade is rejected.....

I certainly want to stay a part of the group as my other 5 trades have gone very well... I just felt the need to share how some view the group and how I was treated...yes, I am new, but that is no excuse here....

....steps down off soapbox and exits stage left

ChristiansCards-Get over it. I made two trades this month and I have made two trades evey month since the group started back up at the beginning of the year. I didn't feel like making a third trade for 25 Miguel Tejada Cards. I am sorry, but I am not a super collector.
If the worst thing that happens to you is that you go looking for cards of a certain Team and player and then the trade falls through. Well, then I would have to say that you have led a pretty good life.

It is not a matter of "getting over it"..... I do not like when people pick and choose what rules they choose to follow... I think I only feel like playing 7 innings today....I am only going to pay some of my taxes this year... I am only going to drive 3/4 of the way to the store.... If you commit to something, you commit to its entirety or not at all.... that is the point I am making.... I should not have to "get over it" if you adhered to the same rules that everyone else is held to....

Just curious if anyone had heard anything from BearsFever? I have not heard anything from him about our trade for this month. The stuff has been ready to go for him for a while, I was just waiting to have him confirm. Anyone else have an issue with him not confirming?
