Delivery Time! Cards from Spiegel

I recently received another trade envelope in the mail - this one from Spiegel (who, as far as I know, does not have a blog).  I sent Spiegel one of the trade stacks (stack #8), 4 cards off his want lists that he asked for, and an assortment of roughly ten Dodger cards.  In return, I got the following:

2011 Topps:
Base:
108.  Zack Greinke

138.  NL RBI Leaders

198.  Buster Posey

The Pujols, Votto, Gonzalez card is a duplicate - you can find all my 2011 Topps cards that I have available for trade here.  The other two base cards mean I am now down to needing only 16 cards (14 of which should be in the mail already according to my records).  

Diamond Parallels:
Reminder:  Each diamond parallel that is sent to me earns the sender one entry in my Complete Set and Other Goodies Giveaway Contest.  Thanks to these two diamond cards, I have now crossed the 48% completion threshhold for the set!  I only need six more new cards before I'll have half the set complete!


Update:  The above numbers are no longer correct - this post was written last week, but only now have I "caught up" in posts to be able to post this one (I try to go in order).  You can follow my progression of the diamond set by watching the counter on the right of my blog.


196.  Jose Ceda

279.  Nick Swisher

60 Years of Topps:
60YOT-02.  Roy Campanella

In addition to the above cards from my want list, Spiegel also sent me a variety of Reds, including two Barry Larkins (one of which I am sure I didn't previously own)!

Thanks for the great trade!  And, as always, if anyone else would like to trade - check out my want list and make an offer!
