Glad you liked it!! 
I had been watching your pin-trading thread closely and I made sure to get some that you did not already have!
Unfortunately the signature on Totodile did not end up very clear as I had hoped but the silver sharpie was what I had at hand for the signing, I hope it will still find a place in your signature collection 
I was thinking about giving you the Kusube Houndour card but I figured that would be something you already have for sure! The Topps one is really rare though even if it was not in the best condition

Been working all day in the garden with my dad, moving rocks and bricks to bring to the disposal. In the evening after dinner I finally had some time to open the packages that arrived today. The largest of the bunch came from Australia, and since I couldnāt think of anything incoming from Australia, I already had a hunch. And that hunch was indeed right: Secret Santa gifts had arrived!
Not one, but two PSA-10 cards, as well as a PSA-9 Reverse Holo with Pikachu in the artwork. And two sealed booster packs as well: a 3-pack for SM Forbidden Light and a Chinese EX Legend Maker pack. Since Iām not much of a sealed pack collector, and the packs arenāt worth that much sealed, I of course had to open them to see what I could pull.
Thanks a lot for everything, Tam (@aquaz). And Merry Christmas to you and everyone else on E4 as well. 
Greetings,
Kevin

A small flat rate box arrived today arrived from Sides Steins, and I immediately checked my eBay order history and realized I hadnāt made a purchase from Dan in awhile, so he must be my Secret Santa! Sure enough, I opened the package and began going through the presents, the first of which was this wonderful playmat which served as an excellent backdrop for all of my pictures!
My favorite Pokemon are Empoleon and Garchomp, and never have they looked finer than these beautiful renditions created by Dan and his wife. She did an excellent job on the shading!
Sticking with the Garchomp and Empoleon theme, he sent some minty copies from the D&P era along with some newer era cards that I have never seen before. I also appreciated the coins and was amazed to see a GEM MINT Garchomp Lv.X from Supreme Victors, one of the best competitive cards of all time and one of the reasons I was so successful in the trading card game as a kid.
But as if that wasnāt enough already, Dan took the extra time to research and go through my buy list that I have failed to update in 6 months and included copies of some of the cards listed there. Iāll have you know that I have bought 3 Shedinjas, 2 Grumpigs and 1 Minun from EX Dragon in the past 6 months in hopes that 1 would be mint, but none were as mint as the copies that he gave me. Those are going straight into my collection to help me finish off my master sets. He also included some pieces for Queendom which is slowly coming together. Jimmy Ballard would be proud.
All in all, I couldnāt be happier. Thank you @gottaketchumall for your kindness and generosity. I wish you and your wife the happiest of holidays!

Received my Secret Santa package today
Thank you to whoever it is, Merry Christmas to you, have a lovely holidays and New Year:D
First thing i checked out was this. I absolutely love the awesome Mewtwo drawing
Then we have these two bad boys. Mewtwo TopSun. This is my first one so very please to add it to my collection.
But Gem Mint 10 YU-Gi-OH, iām blown away, again never had one before which is why iām just too excited to have these two PSA cards.
Not had a booster pack in a very long time, last ones i opened were from Evolutions so a few sets back. This one from the latest English set i will keep and open on Christmas Day
The two figurines of Charizard and Venusaur, will proudly put them in my display cabinet. The Charizard is apparently a stamp holder so i will find a stamp for the holder lol

@youngbambino I was worried that your buy list may have been outdated but I am glad to see that I was at least able to upgrade the quality of a few ex dragon cards! It was fun looking back over the winning decks from that era of world championships and then it sent me digging through old unsorted collection buys to see what I could find. Glad you were happy with it all and Happy Holidays again to you and yours as well!

As soon as I saw a box that wasnāt from Amazon, I knew it must be from my secret santa.I would show a picture of the box, but I donāt think anyone wants to see that. So here is the amazing contents of the box:
Never seen so many beautiful Poliwags, Poliwhirls and Poliwraths in my entire life. Heaven on Earth. Here is the Poliwhirl Plush (from the Pokemon Center) free from the packaging, it feels as soft as silk.
I also recieved what is probably the worlds greatest version of the worlds greatest evolution line.
A special mention has to be given to the beautiful vending machine cards (Donāt forget the poliwag vending machine in PSA 10 in the image above).
Now you are probably wanting to see the beautiful artwork that came with it. I will be sure to take this back to university with me after Christmas and hang it up in my room.
Thank you @charizandrew for all the amazing cards and the super soft plush! You have been very generous and I appreciate that. Happy Holidays!

The Postman rang today and ha a parcel from Amurriicaaā¦which I had not ordered! hmmā¦must be my secret santa gift? 
I was going to wait until Christmasā¦sorry Santa Clausā¦Plez forgive meh! (Extra sherry for him this year! ;P)I held out for several hoursā¦but decidedā¦since yāall are opening and postingā¦It is only fair I do the same? RIGHT!? My SS gift was nicely packaged in a Psa Subs box, after carefully cutting the tape and sliding open the rigid cardboard flaps ^.^ I began to pull out the contents.Initially I thought the person had hidden their note somewhereā¦so i searched several times! Unfortunately I cannot say who my Santa was!? No note, and nothing to suggest which sneaky e4 elf packaged up the present and shipped it out to me! So can the real Santa Claus please stand upā¦please stand up
Without further a doooooooooooooooo!
Unfortunately I donāt know anything about NFL or speed racer cards aha! 
Funnily enough I have been looking to purchase some graded card sleeves recently! ^.^ Luckily I didnāt!
Thank you secret secret Santa
I hope everybody has a great Christmas!!

@polipokemon Iām glad your package arrived safely. When I was looking through the plushes, I thought the Poliwhirl was one of the best looking ones in addition to the fact that it is your favorite Pokemon so I was sure Iād include it in your gift. I found the Poliwhirl refractor holo while searching for cards on eBay and thought it would fit your interest for the EX era. The vending Poliwag and Expedition Poliwrath are cards I graded myself. I hope you enjoy! Happy holidays!
