That's awesome

@marmat  sent me a pick yesterday but I'm gonna give him a bit of time to consider the two new prizes and perhaps make his own pick and acceptance speach.

Hi all, thanks for waiting for me, I had a busy night sleeping .

I will change my choice, so I am picking

Prize #10 Donated by Ron C.

Great!

[Point Five]

Up next is @RockMyAmadeus. RMA, come on down!  

 

[Ron C.]

Congratulations to both @marmatand @TheGeneral for showing some impressive grading skills. Would both of you please PM me your mailing address (and also some likes/preferences for the mystery box)?  Thanks and congrats again!

Crossing my fingers for when it comes to my pick that those who have made donations but have not specified shipping won't mind sending stuff to Canada. 

[comicginger1789]

I never specified but I ship to Canada and US. Overseas I have never done, but I am sure I can work something out

If they haven't restricted/specified shipping they should ship anywhere

[Black_Adam]

To keep things moving I will make my pick now as I am fairly confident @RockMyAmadeus won't be taking this one.

Let me preface my selection by stating that I have previously been the recipient of a @sckao mystery box - and it was spectacular. Now @BlowUpTheMoon is promising his box will top that one, and @RockMyAmadeus says his will exceed both!

I've always been a sucker for a mystery box so, assuming @RockMyAmadeus doesn't decide to keep this one, I proudly select prize #43 - one authentic RMA mystery box! 

[speedcake]

Oooh almost my turn!!

[sckao]

Did they actually say their Mystery Box would top the previous one? 

BTW, the shipping for my Secret Santa/Raffle gifts came out to around $150 for shipping alone so that's why International shipping (and even domestic Priority shipping) is pretty expensive given enough weight.

(And I actually don't remember sending anyone a Mystery Box... My brain cells are long gone.  I've been here too long.  )

Not gonna lie, I’m picking sckao’s box if it’s still on the board. Never gotten a mystery box before

I think it was more along the lines of "not letting you make them look bad." Which sounds near impossible.

But I do remember it was an adventure getting your mystery box across the border last year (I had it sent to my US mailbox) and trying to explain to the customs agents why I had no idea what was in it or what its value was. They loved that one.

I too will ship my prize almost anywhere...if its more than $25 to ship 3 comics and a gift card to where you are I may ask you for assistance with the rest? Is that ok? 

[RockMyAmadeus]

Wait...how do we determine the order of who gets to pick what?
