Then someone listed the full 30-card set for auction starting at $199 but with OBO enabled.

So I sent them an offer of $150 expecting to get turned down, but they accepted. We'll see how good their condition is, but I'm glad to have a bit of my childhood back.
Nice to get the discount, sometimes depending what I am selling I am very lenient as to what I will accept. I sold a Christopher bell white prizm racing card 4/5 that started at 99.99 for 75 dollars heck anytime I sell a racing card I consider it a bonus.

I am bummed out, I don’t get to watch the Angels that often and the one day game I am watching Ohtani isn’t in the lineup. Wonder if the fans there get a partial refund as most only go to see Ohtani and Trout.

Possum, but only if it's cooked correctly.

My wife just renewed my Drivers license 8 years for 63 dollars and change. Now my next quest is to outlive the expiration date of my new license.

They need to change the laws, no offense, but at a certain age people should have to verify they're still able to operate a vehicle safely. Wish you well on your quest though.

I agree and have been saying that all along. I always said at 65 they should make you take the written and road test all over again. I will be 69 when this one expires so I should make it.

Nice.

Anyways, they ought to make everyone retake at least the written test for renewal. Or explain the decades long shortage of blinker fluid.
