Or My First Red Label

My father had my package ready on the dining room table. A knife sat to the right of it, the tip broken off. I should ask about that, but I was happy that the book I made a trade with was there. eBay is easy, as well as any if the comic auction sites. You pay, they send. But what happens when you're trusting someone to send you something using the honor system, if course to be fair, they were trusting me too.

I met this person through Instagram. I have almost as many pictures in there as I have journals on here. By this time next week I should have that amount equaled and passed in two weeks. He had a photo of a book for trade. It was a Young Avengers #1 Wizard World exclusive, graded a 9.5. I never saw one before, and my advice to Dave was to keep it. Apparently that didn't happen.

We agreed upon a trade and trusted each of us to do right by the other. On Saturday my patents notified me that my package arrived, and Dave posted his newest acquisition on Instagram, something I did today. I love the social media aspect of making friends and because if it I have my first and only 9.5.

Thanks for Reading
