A bunch of my friends have been discussing this series a lot. All of us were surprised by Barkley’s prediction that the Magic would beat the Cavs, but he was right.
Here is a great pictorial summary of what Dwight Howard did to the Cavs last night… 40 points & 14 rebounds.

Two weeks ago we had two new employees join our team. These employees and the rest of our team have been doing an absolutely amazing job. There had previously only been one week where we processed 20,000 cards.
Last week we processed 20,182 cards to break our previous record of 20,041 cards.
This week technically isn’t over yet, but we have already processed 23,606 cards this week.
That is an amazing pace. I took a glace at the top sellers and noticed that very soon my LowPriceCards account won’t bee the only account with a six digit book value. The growth we have seen over the past year is pretty stunning.

Many buyers and sellers have requested a cheaper option when having hundreds of cards packaged and shipped to them. We have been listening, and we are glad to announce that for the last week of May we are offering a Bulk Shipping Special. You can read the full details about the special here.

This option takes an extra week or two to package, but it typically provides about a 30-50% savings on shipping.
With this 1-week special your packaging & shipping fees can approach $0.10/card.

I have no clue what was so significant about yesterday, but we did manage to break our single day record for revenue. No specials, no promotions, just a normal Thursday, but yesterday beat out the day after Thanksgiving which had our huge flat shipping special.
Hopefully this is a positive sign regarding the economy, but I am sure it is way to early to tell. In any case, it is really nice to see this the same week we had a couple new employees join our team.

I just installed Internet Explorer 8 on my Windows XP laptop. From playing with CheckOutMyCards.com for even just a few minutes I have noticed that the website is noticably faster.
Not sure if this makes a difference, but I turned off the compatibility mode option. CheckOutMyCards.com appears to work fine without compatibility mode enabled, but other sites might have issues with this.
I just had to give a quick plug for IE 8. Every impressed with the significantly improved performance.
